When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force on it. This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the sky diver and, thus, slows him down. Suppose the weight of the sky diver is 915 N and the drag force has a magnitude of 1061 N. The mass of the sky diver is 93.4 kg. Take upward to be the positive direction. What is his acceleration, including sign

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

According to newton's second law of motion.

[tex]\sum Fx = ma\\\\\sum Fx = 1061 - 915\\\\\sum Fx = 146N[/tex]

m is the mas of the sky diver = 93.4kg

a is the acceleration of the skydiver

From the formula above;

[tex]a = \frac{\sum Fx}{m}\\ \\a = \frac{146}{93.4}\\\\a = 1.563m/s^2[/tex]

Hence the acceleration of the sky diver is 1.563m/s²

Experimenter bias

Explanation:

If the experimenter knows who is in the experimental and control groups and treats them accordingly, she runs the risk of Experimenter bias.

Definitions of Experimenter bias

1) Research bias, also called experimenter bias, is a process where the scientists performing the research influence the results, in order to portray a certain outcome.

2) Observer bias (also called experimenter bias or research bias) is the tendency to see what we expect to see, or what we want to see. When a researcher studies a certain group, they usually come to an experiment with prior knowledge and subjective feelings about the group being studied.

If you borrow your mom's car to drive 128 m to the store, but you go cruising
instead and drive a total distance of 1256 m in 3600s. What was your speed during the
trip? Round answer to 2 significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

v = 0.349 m/s

Explanation:

If you borrow your mom's car to drive 128 m to the store, but you go cruising  instead and drive a total distance of 1256 m in 3600s.

We need to find your speed during the  trip. It is equal to the total distance divided by time taken.

He has done cruising  instead and drive a total distance of 1256 m.

So,

[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{1256\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\v=0.349\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of the person during the trip is 0.349 m/s.

We can model its motion as that of a point mass swinging at the end of a 0.60-m-long, massless rod. At the lowest point of its swing, the gibbon is moving at 3.5 m/s. What upward force must a branch provide to support the swinging gibbon

Answers

Answer:

The correct solution will be "271.95 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

velocity  

v = 3.5 m/s

mass

m = 9.0 kg

r = 0.6 m

According to the question:

⇒ [tex]F_{branch}=F_{gravity}+F_{centrifugal}[/tex]

⇒             [tex]=mg+\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

⇒             [tex]=9\times 9.8+\frac{9\times (3.5)^2}{0.6}[/tex]

⇒             [tex]=88.2+\frac{110.35}{0.6}[/tex]

You and some friends visit the Florida State Fair and decide to play a game. To play the game you must slide a metal hockey-type puck up a wooden ramp so that it drops through a hole at the top of the ramp. Your prize, if you win, is a large, stuffed gorilla. You realize the secret to winning is giving the puck just enough velocity at the bottom of the ramp to make it to the hole. You estimate the distance from the bottom of the ramp to the hole at about 3 m, and the ramp appears to be inclined with an angle of 10o from the horizontal. You just got out of physics class and recall the coefficient of static friction between steel and wood is 0.1 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between steel and wood is 0.08. The mass of the puck is about 1 kg. You decide to impress your friends by sliding the puck at the precise speed on the first try so as to land it in the hole. You slide the puck at 2.0 m/sec. Do you win the stuffed poodle? Let g = 10 m/s2. Note: A slightly too hard throw will win since your aim is so good the puck would drop in the hole.

Answers

Answer:

No you didn't win the stuffed poodle

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The distance of the ramp to the hole is  d =  3 m \

     The angle of inclination is  [tex]\theta  =  10^o[/tex]

       The coefficient of static friction is [tex]\mu_s = 0.1[/tex]

     The coefficient of kinetic  friction is [tex]\mu_k = 0.08[/tex]

      The mass of the puck is  m  =  1 kg

     The velocity of the first slide  is  [tex]v_1  =  2.0 m/s[/tex]

       

Generally the kinetic energy at the bottom of the ramp  is equal the energy loss due to friction and this can be mathematically represented as

    [tex]\frac{1}{2} m *  v^  2 =  \mu_k * [m *  g] *  cos (theta )  *  d[/tex]

=>     [tex]\frac{1}{2}  *  v^  2 = 0.08 * 9.8 *  cos (10 )  *  3[/tex]

=>     [tex] v=  2.17 \  m/s [/tex]

Comparing the relative velocity obtained and the velocity of your first throw we can see that you didn't win the stuffed animal

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface of the incline is μk=0.400. The spring is released and the box travels up the incline, leaving the spring behind.

What minimum elastic potential energy must be stored initially in the spring if the box is to travel 2.00 m from its initial position to the top of the incline?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]10.845\ \text{J}[/tex]

Explanation:

m = Mass of box = 0.6 kg

[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle of incline = [tex]37^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\mu_k[/tex] = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.4

l = Distance the box travels = 2 m

Question #4
4. Anthony walks to the pizza place for lunch. He walk 4 km
east, he realized he passed it and then walked 1 km west.
What distance did he cover? What was his displacement?

Answers

Answer:

Distance 5 km, Displacement 3 km east

Explanation:

The distance covered by Anthony is 5 km, while his displacement is 3 km.

Distance and displacement:

The distance is defined as the total length of space covered during motion between the starting point and end point, not necessarily a straight line. Whereas displacement is defined as the minimum distance between two points in space, that is a straight line.

Suppose, if you start from one point and walk for 100 meters then come back at the same point that you started your walk, you would have traveled 2 times 100 meters that is 200 meters. But your displacement will be zero because your starting point and the end point are the same.

The given question clarifies the difference between distance and displacement:

Since Anthony walks 4 km east and then walks 1 km west, the distance covered by him is:

distance = 4 + 1 = 5 km

but as he walks west, he comes closer to the starting point, and his displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point.

displacement = 4 - 1 = 3 km

Referto the figure below for more information.

Find the distance along an arc on the surface of the earth that subtends a central angle of 1 minutes (1 minute = 1/60 degree). The radius of the earth is 3960 miles. Round to the thousandths. (3 decimal places)

Answers

Answer:

1.152 miles

Explanation:

Given: central angle = 1 minute = [tex](\frac{1}{60}) ^{o}[/tex]

           radius of the earth = 3960 miles

The length of an arc = [tex]\frac{\alpha }{360^{o} }[/tex] 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r

where: [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the central angle, and r is the radius.

Thus,

Distance along the arc = [tex]\frac{\alpha }{360^{o} }[/tex] 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r

Distance along the arc = [tex]\frac{(\frac{1}{60}) ^{o} }{360^{o} }[/tex] x 2 x [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x 3960

                                      = [tex]\frac{(\frac{1}{60}) ^{o} }{360^{o} }[/tex] x 24891.4286

                                      = 1.1524

The required distance along an arc is 1.152 miles.

A 1000-turn solenoid is 50 cm long and has a radius of 2.0 cm. It carries a current of 18.0 A. What is the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its center

Answers

Answer:

The value  is  [tex]B =  0.0452 \  T [/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of turns is  N  =  1000

    The length is  L =  50 cm =  0.50 m  

    The radius is  r =  2.0 cm  =  0.02 m

     The current is I  =  18.0 A

   

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

         [tex]B = \mu_o  * \frac{N }{L}  *  I[/tex]

Here [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space with value  

     [tex]\mu_o  =  4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]

So

     [tex]B =  4\pi * 10^{-7}  *   \frac{1000}{0.50} *  18.0[/tex]

=>   [tex]B =  0.0452 \  T [/tex]

An airline employee tosses two suitcases in rapid succession with a horizontal velocity of 7.2 ft/s onto a 50-lb baggage carrier which is initially at rest. Problem 14.003.a Conservation of momentum: two colliding suitcases Knowing that the final velocity of the baggage carrier is 4.8 ft/s and that the first suitcase the employee tosses onto the carrier has a weight of 30 lb, determine the weight of the other suitcase. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The weight of the other suitcase is lb.

Answers

Answer:

m₁ = 70 lb

Explanation:

Here we will use the law of conservation of momentum:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ + m₃u₃ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ + m₃v₃

where,

m₁ = mass of first suitcase = ?

m₂ = mass of second suitcase = 30 lb

m₃ = mass of baggage carrier = 50 lb

u₁ = initial speed of first suitcase = 7.2 ft/s

u₂ = initial speed of second suitcase = 7.2 ft/s

u₃ = initial speed of baggage carrier = 0 ft/s

v₁ = Final speed of first suitcase = 4.8 ft/s

v₂ = Final speed of second suitcase = 4.8 ft/s

v₃ = Final speed of baggage carrier = 4.8 ft/s

because after collision all three will have same speed

Therefore,

(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) + (30 lb)(7.2 ft/s) + (50 lb)(0 ft/s) = (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) + (30 lb)(4.8 ft/s) + (50 lb)(4.8 ft/s)

(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) + (216 lb ft/s) + (0 lb ft/s) = (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) + (144 lb ft/s) + (240 lb ft/s)

(m₁)(7.2 ft/s) - (m₁)(4.8 ft/s) = 168 lb ft/s

m₁ = (168 lb ft/s)/(2.4 ft/s)

m₁ = 70 lb

     Generally red shift is mathematically represented as

    [tex]R =  \frac{ \lambda -  \lambda_e }{\lambda_e}[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.4  =  \frac{ \lambda -   500 *10^{-9} }{500 *10^{-9} }[/tex]

=>  [tex] \lambda - 500*10^{-9} = 200*10^{-9}  [/tex]

The earth has a mass of, MEarth=6.4 X 1024 kg and a radius of REarth= 6.0 X 106meter and it has acceleration due to gravity, gE = 9.8 . One of Jupiter’s moon also has MJmoon = ½ * MEarth =3.2 x 1024 kg with a radius of, RJmoon = ½ * REarth =3.0 x 106 m and gJmoon value unknown. From the information, what is acceleration due to gravity of Jupiter’s moon, gjmoon, comparing to the earth’s acceleration due to gravity, gEarth?

Answers

Answer:

gjmoon = 19.6 m/s2

Explanation:

Applying the Universal Law of Gravitation, the force exerted by the Earth on a mass m, can be written as follows:

       [tex]F_{gE} = m* \frac{G*M_{E} }{R_{E} ^{2} } = m*g_{E}[/tex]

In the same way, the force due to gravity of Jupiter's moon, can be written as follows:

      [tex]F_{gjmoon} = m* \frac{G*M_{Jmoon} }{R_{Jmoon} ^{2} } = m*g_{jmoon} (1)[/tex]

Now, we know the following:

       [tex]M_{Jmoon} = \frac{M_{E} }{2} (2)[/tex]  

      [tex]R_{Jmoon} = \frac{R_{E} }{2} (3)[/tex]

Replacing (2) and (3) in (1), we get:

       [tex]F_{gjmoon} = m* \frac{G*M_{E} }{2*\frac{R_{E} ^{2}}{4} } = m*g_{jmoon} (1) = m* 2* \frac{G*M_{E} }{R_{E} ^{2}} = 2* m*g_{E}[/tex]

      ⇒  [tex]g_{jmoon} = 2* g_{E}[/tex]

       gjmoon = 19.6 m/s2 (in magnitude).
