The motion of a human body through space can be modeled as the motion of a particle at the bodys center of mass as we will study in Chapter 9. The components of the displacement of an athletes center of mass from the beginning to the end of a certain jump are described by the equations xj = 0 + (11.2 m/s) (cos 18.5)t 0.360 m = 0.840 m + (11.2 m/s)(sin 18.5)t - 12(9.80 m/s2)t2 where t is in seconds and is the time at which the athlete ends the jump. Identify (a) the athletes position and (b) his vector velocity at the takeoff point. (c) How far did he jump?
The Moon is 60 Earth radii (i.e. 60 rEarth) from the center of the Earth and has a mass of 0.012 Earth masses (i.e. 0.012 mEarth) a. How many Earth radii is the center of mass (the “barycenter”) of the Earth-Moon system from the center of the Earth? b. Is the center of mass inside the Earth or outside the Earth? c. What point along the line from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon orbits the barycenter of the Solar System in a (nearly) circular orbit (e.g. the center of the Earth, the barycenter of the Earth-Moon system, the midpoint, the center of the Moon)?
Two masses m1 = 15 kg amd m2 = 25 kg are joined by connecting a rod of length 0.8 m. Determine the distance of the CM of the system from the m1 if a.) the connecting rod is massless, and b.) the connecting rod is a uniform rod of mass 15 kg
Some asteroid is moving towards a base in space, such that the base is positioned on the xaxis and is 2000 meters wide on the xaxis. This asteroid, moving at 500 m/s along the yaxis, is on a collision course targeted at the center of the base. However, explosives are planted on the asteroid, which makes it explode into two separate pieces. The two separate pieces will have masses of of m and 2m. 1. Please draw the trajectory of the CM of the asteroid as well as the system after the explosion (with the two separate masses). 2. At the same time, the two split pieces of asteroid reach the base. The piece with mass, m, passes by the right side of the bass at 1800m from the edge of the bass. Will the asteroid piece with mass, 2m, hit the base? Please prove if it will or will not. 3. The asteroid piece of mass, m, will be moving at a direction that is makes a 30 degree angle along the x axis, and its speed will be 1000 m/s. What is the speed of the split asteroid of mass, 2m?
You are doing an experiment in the classroom with a ramp and two balls of EQUAL mass. The balls are released at the same time and start rolling down the incline. (you are supposed to see that all is not perfect. we don’t expect the identical balls to travel down the ramp at the exact same time, only close. you should see that if the balls are close ‘within 1 or 2 cm’, we will call it identical. Why do they NOT travel down the ramp exactly together?
been assuming is true all along. Questions 1. Mass 1 (2.0 kg) is placed on the origin of the x – axis. Mass 2 (3.0 kg) is at x = 2.0 m and mass 3 (1.5 kg) is at x = 5.0 m. Where is the center of mass of the system? 2. Three uniform cubes of different sizes are made of the same material. The cubes are stacked in a pile with a vertical line running through the center of each cube. Cube 1 has sides of length L, Cube 2 has sides of length 2L and cube 3 has sides of length 3L. Cube 1 is on top and 3 is on the bottom. Where is the CM of the cubes?
51. ao Two stars in a binary system orbit around their center of mass. The centers of the two stars are 7.17 × 10" m apart. The larger of the two stars has a mass of 3.70 × 100 kg, and its center is 2.08 × 10" m from the system's center of mass. What is the mass of the smaller star?
The two masses mi 2kg and m₂ are connected by a massless string passing through a massless pulley as shown in the figure below. If the system is released from rest when m₁ is on the ground and m2 is h = 5, 2m above the ground, m₂ hits the ground with a speed of v= 2, 1m/s. Determine the mass of m₂ .Take g 9.8m/s² and express your answer in units of kg using one decimal place. m1 m₂ h
PLEASE WRITE THE ANSER IN 10 MINUTES!!! The two masses m1=4kg and m2=7kg are connected by a massless string passing through a massless pulley as shown in the figure below. If the system is released from rest when m1 is on the ground and m2 is h=1.3m above the ground, determine the speed of m2 right before it hits the ground in units of m/s.Take g=9.8m/s2 and round off your answer to one decimal place.
A 4,600 kg open train car is rolling on frictionless rails at 21.1 m/s when it starts pouring rain. A while later the car's speed is 19.5 m/s. What mass of water has collected in the car? Provide your answer in appropriate units of meters (m), seconds (s), kilograms (kg), radians (rad) or combinations thereof, such as m/s or m/s^2. Use at least three significant figures in your answer, do not use scientific notation. Using more significant figures will not be considered incorrect; using fewer may lead to errors due to rounding.
