Answer:

~4%

Explanation:

% = |(7.6 - 7.9)|/7.9

= 0.3/7.9 ≈ 0.04 = 4%

In some amazing situations, people have survived falling large distances when the surface they land on is soft enough. During a
OleMash [197]

Answer:

-3413 ft/s2

Explanation:

We need to know the velocity with which he landed on the snow.

He 'dropped' from 512 feet. This is the displacement. His initial velocity is 0 and the acceleration of gravity is 32 ft/s2.

We use the equation of mition

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v and u are the initial and final velocities, a is the acceleration and s is the displacement. Putting the appropriate values

v^2 = 0^2 + 2\times32\times512

v = \sqrt{2\times32\times512} = 128\sqrt{2}

This is the final velocity of the fall and becomes the initial velocity as he goes into the snow.

In this second motion, his final velocity is 0 because he stops after a displacement of 4.8 ft. We use the same equation of motion but with different values. This time, u=128\sqrt{2}, v = 0 and s = 4.8 ft.

0^2 = (128\sqrt{2})^2 + 2a\times4.8

a = -\dfrac{2\times128^2}{2\times4.8} = -3413

Note that this is negative because it was a deceleration, that is, his velocity was decreasing.

A mass m slides down a frictionless ramp and approaches a frictionless loop with radius R. There is a section of the track with
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

   h = 2 R (1 +μ)

Explanation:

This exercise must be solved in parts, first let us know how fast you must reach the curl to stay in the

let's use the mechanical energy conservation agreement

starting point. Lower, just at the curl

       Em₀ = K = ½ m v₁²

final point. Highest point of the curl

        Em_{f} = U = m g y

Find the height y = 2R

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

      ½ m v₁² = m g 2R

       v₁ = √ 4 gR

Any speed greater than this the body remains in the loop.

In the second part we look for the speed that must have when arriving at the part with friction, we use Newton's second law

X axis

    -fr = m a                      (1)

Y Axis  

      N - W = 0

      N = mg

the friction force has the formula

     fr = μ  N

     fr = μ m g

    we substitute 1

    - μ mg = m a

     a = - μ g

having the acceleration, we can use the kinematic relations

    v² = v₀² - 2 a x

    v₀² = v² + 2 a x

the length of this zone is x = 2R

    let's calculate

     v₀ = √ (4 gR + 2 μ g 2R)

     v₀ = √4gR( 1 + μ)

this is the speed so you must reach the area with fricticon

finally have the third part we use energy conservation

starting point. Highest on the ramp without rubbing

     Em₀ = U = m g h

final point. Just before reaching the area with rubbing

     Em_{f} = K = ½ m v₀²

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

     mgh = ½ m 4gR(1 + μ)

       h = ½ 4R (1+ μ)

       h = 2 R (1 +μ)

According to the nebular theory of solar system formation, what key difference in their early formation explains why the jovian
svp [43]

Answer:

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline while the terrestrial planets formed in the Frostline in the solar nebular

Explanation:

The Jovian planets are the large planets namely Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. The terrestrial planets include the Earth, Mercury, Mars, and Venus. According to the nebular theory of solar system formation, the terrestrial planets were formed from silicates and metals. They also had high boiling points which made it possible for them to be located very close to the sun.

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline. This is an area that can support the planets that were made up of icy elements. The large size of the Jovian planets is as a result of the fact that the icy elements were more in number than the metal components of the terrestrial planets.

B. A hydraulic jack has a ram of 20 cm diameter and a plunger of 3 cm diameter. It is used for lifting a weight of 3 tons. Find
lozanna [386]

Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

According to the Pascal's law

F / A = f / a

Where, F is the force on ram, A be the area of ram, f be the force on plunger and a be the area of plunger.

Diameter of ram, D = 20 cm, R = 20 / 2 = 10 cm

A = π R^2 = π x 100 cm^2

F = 3 tons = 3000 kgf

diameter of plunger, d = 3 cm, r = 1.5 cm

a = π x 2.25 cm^2

Use Pascal's law

3000 / π x 100 = f / π x 2.25

f = 67.5 Kgf
