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
Answer:
160N
Explanation:
Moments must be conserved - so.
<span>The answer of these two problems are :
A) a = (F-W)/m = (100-500)/500/g = 9.8*500/500 = +9.8
m/sec^2
B) a1 = +9.8-g = 0</span>
Answer:
h=20.66m
Explanation:
First we need the speed when the cord starts stretching:
This will be our initial speed for a balance of energy.
By conservation of energy:
Where
is your height at its maximum elongation
is the height of the bridge
is the length of the unstretched bungee cord
Solving for h:
and 
Since 99m is higher than the initial height of 79m, we discard that value.
So, the final height above water is 20.66m
