Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

(II) A skier traveling 11.0 m/s reaches the foot of a steady
upward 19° incline and glides 15 m up along this slope
before coming to rest. What was the average coefficient of
friction?

When a certain ball is dropped from a height h,.it rebounds to height 0.4h. If this ball is droppedfrom a height of 10 feet and allowed to bounceover and over. without interference, how manytimes must the ball hit the floor before itrebounds to a height of less than six inches?
A secret agent skis off a slope inclined at θ = 26 degrees below horizontal at a speed of v0 = 14 m/s. He must clear a gorge, and the slope on the other side of the gorge is h = 19.5 m below the edge of the upper slope. What is the maximum width, w, of the gorge (in meters) so that the agent clears it?
A projectile is launched from ground level with an initial velocity of v 0 feet per second. Neglecting air resistance, its height in feet t seconds after launch is given by s = - 16f 2 + v 0 t. Find the time(s) that the projectile will (a) reach a height of 192ft and (b) return to the ground when v 0 = 128 feet per second.
Question 2: #63 In 1780, in what is now referred to as "Brady's Leap," Captain Sam Brady of the U.S. Continental Army escaped certain death from his enemies by running horizontally off the edge of the cliff above Ohio's Cuyahoga River, which is con-fined at that spot to a gorge. He landed safely on the far side of the river. It was reported that he leapt 22 ft across while falling 20 ft. Tall tale, or possible?
He was skiing off a slope inclined at theta = 26.7 degrees below horizontal at a speed of v0=22 m/s. He must clear a gorge and slope on the other side at height h = 14.7 meters below the edge of the higher slope. How do you determine the maximum width of the gorge (in meters) so that he clears it?
