In the circular motion of the hammer, the centripetal force is given by
F=m \frac{v^2}{r}
where m is the mass of the hammer, v its tangential speed and r is the distance from the center of the motion, i.e. the length of the hammer.
Using the data of the problem, we find:
F=m \frac{v^2}{r}=(7.26 kg) \frac{(31.95 m/s)^2}{1.215 m}=6100 N

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 box sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface runs into a fixed spring, compressing it a distance x1 from its relaxed posit
inn [45]

Answer:twice of initial value

Explanation:

Given

spring compresses x_1 distance for some initial speed

Suppose v is the initial speed and k be the spring constant

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy converted into spring Elastic potential energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_1^2----1

When speed doubles

\dfrac{1}{2}m(2v)^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_2^2----2

divide 1 and 2

\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}

x_2=2x_1

Therefore spring compresses twice the initial value

A truck collides with a car on horizontal ground. At one moment during the collision, the magnitude of the acceleration of the t
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the truck, a_t = 12.7 m/s²

mass of the truck, m_t = 2490 kg

mass of the car, m_c = 890 kg

let the acceleration of the car at the moment they collided = a_c

Apply Newton's third law of motion;

Magnitude of force exerted by the truck = Magnitude of force exerted by the car.

The force exerted by the car occurs in the opposite direction.

F_c = -F_t\\\\m_ca_c = -m_t a_t\\\\a_c =- \frac{m_ta_t}{m_c} \\\\a_c = -\frac{2490 \times 12.7}{890} \\\\a_c = - 35.53 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

A gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position. Why?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The body's rotational inertia is greater in layout position than in tucked position. Because the body remains airborne for roughly the same time interval in either position, the gymnast must have much greater kinetic energy in layout position to complete the backflip.

Explanation:

A gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position.

When the body is straight , its moment of rotational inertia is more than the case when he folds his body round. Hence rotational inertia ( moment of inertia x angular velocity ) is also greater. To achieve that inertia , there is need of greater imput of energy in the form of kinetic energy  which requires greater effort.

So a gymnast's backflip is considered more difficult to do in the layout (straight body) position than in the tucked position.
