A parachutist jumps out of an airplane and accelerates with gravity to a maximum velocity of 58.8 m/s in 6 seconds. She then pulls the parachute cord and after a 4 second deceleration, descends at 10 m/s for 60 seconds. reaching the ground. From what height did the parachutist jump?
A car travelling at the speed Vo on a straight level road. After the brakes are applied at t = 0, the motion can be approximated by s = ?^3/100− ?^2 + 17? where s is thedistance traveled in meters and t is the time in seconds. a. gives the value of Vo b. gives the distance required for the car to stop.
Ferrari LaFerrari can go from zero to 120 miles per hour in 6.5 seconds. Assuming that it can keep its acceleration constant, how long a distance can it cover in 15 minutes? Express the answer in metric units. (1 mile is equal to 1.61 kilometers) Hint: Obtain the acceleration from the first setence.
At highway speeds, a particular automobile is capable of an acceleration of about 2.0 m/s^2 At this rate, how long does it take to accelerate from 70 km/hkm/h to 130 km/hkm/h ?
a parked police car takes off after a suspect and reaches 65.6km/hr in 6.49 seconds. What was the average acceleration (in m/s2) of the car.
If a car moves at the rate of 30mi/h for 6 min, then 60mi/h for 10 min, and finally 5 min/hfor 3 min, what is the average velocity in the total interval? Answer is 61.3 t/s
a car is traveling at the speed Vo on a straight, level road. After the brakes are applied at t=0, the motion can be approximatd by x=t^3/100-t^2+17t where x is the distance traveled in meters and t is the time in seconds. What is the max acceleration during brake?
Colonel John P. Stapp, USAF, participated in studying whether a jet pilot could survive emergency ejection. On March 19, 1954, he rode a rocket-propelled sled that moved down a track at a speed of 632 mi/h. He and the sled were safely brought to rest in 1.40 s (Fig. P2.41). Determine (a) the negative acceleration he experienced and (b) the distance he traveled during this negative acceleration.
Traumatic brain injury such as concussion results when the head undergoes a very large acceleration. Generally, an acceleration less than 800 m/s2 lasting for any length of time will not cause injury, whereas an acceleration greater than 1 000 m/s2 lasting tor at least 1 ms will cause injury. Suppose; a small child rolls off a bed that is 0.40 m above the floor. If the floor is hardwood, the childs head is brought to rest in approximately 2.0 min. If the floor is carpeted, this stopping distance is increased to about 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude and duration of the deceleration. In both cases, to determine the risk of injury. Assume the child remains horizontal during the fall to the floor. Note that a more complicated fall could result in a head velocity greater or less than the speed you calculate.
In World War II, there were several reported cases of airmen who jumped from their flaming airplanes with no parachute to escape certain death. Some fell about 20,000 feet (6000 m), and some of them survived, with few life-threatening injuries. For these lucky pilots, the tree branches and snow drifts on the ground allowed their deceleration to be relatively small. If we assume that a pilot's speed upon impact was 123 mph (54 m/s), then what was his deceleration? Assume that the trees and snow stopped him over a distance of 3.0 m.
