A 70 kg student jumps down to form a 1 m high platform. She forgets to bend her knees and her downward motion stops in 0.02 seco

34kurt

Answer:

15,505 N

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy loss of the student equals the kinetic energy gain of the student

-ΔU = ΔK

-(U₂ - U₁) = K₂ - K₁ where U₁ = initial potential energy = mgh , U₂ = final potential energy = 0, K₁ = initial kinetic energy = 0 and K₂ = final kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

-(0 - mgh) = 1/2mv² - 0

mgh = 1/2mv² where m = mass of student = 70kg, h = height of platform = 1 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and v = final velocity of student as he hits the ground.

mgh = 1/2mv²

gh = 1/2v²

v² = 2gh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2 × 9.8 m/s² × 1 m)

v = √(19.6 m²/s²)

v = 4.43 m/s

Upon impact on the ground and stopping, impulse I = Ft = m(v' - v) where F = force, t = time = 0.02 s, m =mass of student = 70 kg, v = initial velocity on impact = 4.43 m/s and v'= final velocity at stopping = 0 m/s

So Ft = m(v' - v)

F = m(v' - v)/t

substituting the values of the variables, we have

F = 70 kg(0 m/s - 4.43 m/s)/0.02 s

= 70 kg(- 4.43 m/s)/0.02 s

= -310.1 kgm/s ÷ 0.02 s

= -15,505 N

So, the force transmitted to her bones is 15,505 N

A thin, horizontal, 18-cm-diameter copper plate is charged to -3.8 nC. Assume that the electrons are uniformly distributed on th

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

$E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma = \frac{Q}{A}$

$Q = -3.8 nC$

$A = \pi(0.09)^2$

$A = 0.025 m^2$

$\sigma = \frac{-3.8\times 10^{-9}}{0.025}$

$\sigma = -1.5 \times 10^{-7} C/m^2$

now the electric field is given as

$E = \frac{-1.5 \times 10^{-7}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}$

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Part b)

Now since the electric field is required at same distance on other side

so the field will remain same on other side of the plate

$E = 8436.7 N/C$

Sea breezes that occur near the shore are attributed to a difference between land and water with respect to what property?

ddd [48]

Answer:

a. mass density

Explanation:

<em>Land and sea breeze that occur near the shore are due to the variation of mass density of air with change in temperature.</em>

When the air gets heated it becomes rarer in density and thus rises up in the atmosphere and its space is occupied by a cooler and denser air that flows to the place.

<em>During the day the land is warmer than the sea so the sea breeze blows and during the night the water bodies are warmer than the land so the land breeze blows.</em>

"A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water. What is the buoyant force on the block due to the water? The density of

Alja [10]

Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B = 40-30= 10 N

therefore, buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N
