Question
Sarah is running at a rate of 3.5 meters per second and accelerates at a constant rate. She weighs 715 Newtons and uses a horizontal force of 205 Newtons. What is the range she covers in these 4 seconds?
*I have solved for the first three parts asking for her body mass (72.96kg answer), her horizontal acceleration(2.8m/s^2), and her velocity after the 4 seconds. I just do not know how to get the range from here. Thank you for your help!*

- I need help with a physics question: A ball is launched directly upward from the ground with an initial velocity of 13 m/s, with the upward direction considered positive, and no air resistance. What is the maximum height the ball reaches in meters, how long does it take to reach this maximum point in seconds and what is the total displacement in meters of the ball for its entire motion of traveling from the ground to the top and returning. ***gravity is the only force acting on it*** Thanks!arrow_forwardA slug with a mass of mm = 16 g is shot out of a rifle that has length LL = 0.72 m.

- Please asaparrow_forward2. A block of mass m is moving with speed v along a horizontal surface when it collides with a uniform rod of mass 2m and length L attached at one end to a pivot. The surface and pivot have negligible friction. The rod is vertical when the block collides with the end of the rod. The block sticks to the rod, and the block-rod system rotates so that the end of the rod reaches a height h, as shown above. The total rotational inertia of the rod about the pivot is 2mL/3. Express answers in parts (a), (b), and (c) in terms of m, L, v, and physical constants as appropriate. 2m, L a. Derive an expression for the angular speed of the block-rod system immediately after the collision. b. Show that the change in height h of the bottom of the rod can be given by the equation A = 3v-/20g. c.

- Please use at least 4 significant figures throughout the entire problem! Also use 9.80m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. DO NOT USE 10 M/S2 FOR THE ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY! Thank You.arrow_forwardd. Force is a vector quantity and thus has both a magnitude and a direction. A vector can be represented graphically by a line drawn to scale in the direction of the line of action of the force. To distinguish between vector and scalar quantities, various ways are used. Identify and explain threeof these ways.arrow_forwardA car has a mass of 1500 kg.
