Suppose that air resistance cannot be ignored. For the position at which the person has jumped from the platform and the cord re

aches its maximum stretch length, how does the stretch length of the cord in the case with air resistance compare with the stretch length in the case in which air resistance is ignored? Briefly state your reasoning.

Answer:

The stretch cord stores potential energy as a result of stretching but due to kinetic energy, it will move back to its original state. Since air resistance is not being ignored in this case, it will experience a slight delay in stretching at first.

Explanation:

In case, where air resistance is being ignored the stretch cord will stretch as it normally does.              

  • Air resistance is a force that any object experiences as a result of its motion through the air.  

There are various factors that affect air resistance like speed, the density of air, area, the shape of an object etc. Meanwhile, the density of air changes with temperature or altitude. <em>Hence this force is not constant but is thought to be constant during short time frames.  </em>

Answer:

<em>You would use the kinematic formula:</em>

    \Delta y=V_{0y}\times t-g\times t^2/2

Explanation:

The upwards vertical motion is ruled by the equation:

        y=y_0+V_{0y}\times t-g\times t^2/2

Where:

       y \text{ is the position at the time }t:y=0.1m

       y_0\text{ is the initial position: }y_0=0

       t=2s

       g\text{ is the gravitational acceleration: }\approx 9.8m/s^2

       V_{0y}\text{ is the initial vertical velocity}

Naming Δy = y - y₀, the equation becomes:

      \Delta y=V_{0y}\times t-g\times t^2/2

Then, you just need to substitute with Δy = 0.1m, t = 2s, and g = 9.8m/s², ans solve for the intital vertical velocity.

Efficiency is defined as the measure of the amount of work or energy is conserved in a certain process. At all times, in every process, work or energy is always lost or wasted due to certain interference. Not all work given is converted to useful work or energy. Thus , efficiency is calculated by dividing the energy or work output to the energy or work input then the value is multiplied by 100 to express efficiency as percentage.

Efficiency = work output / work input
Efficiency = (1020 J / 1200 J) = 85%

Brums [2.3K]
We get the clearest image if there is no magnification. When we have no magnification the image and real object have the same size.
If we look at the diagram that I  attached we can see that:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i}{d_0}
Two triangles that I marked are similar and from this we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f}
The image and the object must have the same height so we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f};h_i=h_0\\&#10;1=\frac{d_i-f}{f}\\&#10;d_i=2f
This tells how far the screen should be from the lens. 
The position of the screen on the optical bench is:
S=20.5cm+2f=20.5+2\cdot 15cm=50.5cm
