A car is driven for 60 miles. The first 10 miles are through a large city at a speed of 40 mph; once out of the city a speed of V mph is maintained. (a) Calculate the average speed for the 60-mile trip. (b) If you want to average 60 mph for the trip, how fast need you go during the last 50 miles?
According to Guinness, the tallest man to have ever lived was Robert Pershing Wadlow of Alton, Illinois. He was last measured in 1940 to be 2.72 meters tall (8 feet, 11 inches). Determine the speed which a quarter would have reached before contact with the ground if dropped from rest from the top of his head.

- The question is attached, I attempted it myself multiple times but was unsuccessful. Thanksarrow_forwardOn September 15, 1896 in near Waco, Texas, William George Crush parked two locomotives at opposite ends of a 6.4-km-long track, fired them up, tied their throttles open, and then allowed them to crash head-on at full speed (as seen above) in front of 40,000 spectators (more people than lived in the state’s second-largest city at the time). Hundreds of people were hurt by flying debris; several were killed. Assuming each locomotive weighed 1.2×106N and its acceleration was a constant 0.26 m/s2, what was the total kinetic energy of the two locomotives just before the collision?arrow_forwardHello.

- A 1110 km, 10- hour flight was travelled at 2 speeds. For the first part of the trip. The average speed was 90 km/h. The tailwind picked up and the speed increased to an average of 120 km/h. How long was spent in flying the plant at the speed of 120 km/h?arrow_forwardA parachutist drops freely from an aeroplane for 10 s before the parachute opens out. Then he descends with a net retardation of 2.5 m/s2, If he bails out of the plane at a height of 2495 m and g= 10 m/s², his velocity on reaching the ground will be (a) 5 m/s 87. (b) 10 m/s (c) 15 m/s" (d) 20 m/sarrow_forwardOn October 14, 2012, Felix Baumgartner became the first human being to break the soundbarrier while falling freely. He jumped from a capsule that was lofted by a balloon to analtitude of 127,852 ft (38.96 km). The speed of sound at that altitude is 690 mi/h.(a) Assuming that air friction (drag) is negligible at such altitudes, how far would he haveto fall to reach the speed of sound? (The approximation for the gravitational potentialenergy near the Earth’s surface, Ug ≈ mgy, is accurate to better than 1% even at suchaltitudes. Track units carefully, though!). Draw energy bar charts of your system atthe start of Felix’s jump and when he reaches the speed of sound to support youranswer.(b) Friction is not negligible, even at this altitude. Baumgartner actually reached thespeed of sound at an altitude of 109,731 ft (33.45 km). What fraction of the system’schange in gravitational energy was converted to thermal energy (mostly thermal energyin the air) by the time Baumgartner reached the…arrow_forward
- (5) In 1992, a 14 kg meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a 20-cm-deep dent in the trunk. (a) If the meteorite was moving at 500 m/s before striking the car, what was the magnitude of its acceleration while stopping? Indicate any assumptions you made. (b) What other questions can you answer using the data in the problem?arrow_forwardplease quickly ans this questionarrow_forwardPls answer both, i ran out out if questions :((arrow_forward
- F-H Only! Pleasearrow_forwardAn athlete threw the ball at a speed of 95 mph from the top of a roof 80 m above the ground. How high is the ball above the ground when its speed is 120 mph? (1 mil = 1.61×10>3 m, g = 9.8 m/s>2, air resistance and frictions are neglected)arrow_forwardIn the absence of air resistance, if a ball is thrown vertically upward with a certain initial speed, on returning to its original level it will have the same speed. When air resistance is a factor, will the ball be moving faster, the same, or more slowly than its throwing speed when it gets back to the same level? Why? (Physicists often use a “principle of exaggeration” to help them analyze a problem. Consider the exaggerated case of a feather, not a ball, because the effect of air resistance on the feather is more pronounced and therefore easier to visualize.)arrow_forward
