When jumping straight up from a crouched position, an average person can reach a maximum height of about 60 cm. During the jump, the person鈥檚 body from the knees up typically rises a distance of around 50cm. To keep the calculations simple and yet get a reasonable result, assume that the entire body rises this much during the jump.(a) With what initial speed does the person leave the ground to reach a height of 60cm? (b) Draw a free-body diagram of the person during the jump. (c) In terms of this jumper鈥檚 weight , what force does the ground exert on him or her during the jump?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The initial speed is 3.429m/s.
  2. The free body diagram can be expressed as,
  3. The force does ground exert on him is2.2w.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The given data can be listed below.

The maximum height of an average person is,

yavg=60cm=60100m.=0.60m

The distance of rising a person from the knees is,

d=50cm=50100m.=0.50m

02

Significance of equation of motion:

The equation of motion is used to calculate the motion of an object in 2-dimensional, and 3-dimensional. The equation of motion can easily calculate the position, velocity, acceleration, etc.

03

(a) Determination of Initial speed.

The expression for the initial speed can be expressed as,

v2=u2+2gyavg

Here, u is the initial velocity at rest, g is the acceleration due to gravity, yavgis the maximum height of a person.

Substitute 0 for u, 9.8m/s2for g, and 0.6 m for yavgin the above equation.

v2=0+29.8m/s20.6mv=29.8m/s20.6m=3.429m/s

Hence, required initial speed is 3.429m/s.

04

(b) Determination of free body diagram of a person during the jump.

The free body diagram can be expressed as,


Here, F is the upward force and W is the weight acting downward when jumping.

05

(c) Determination of the force.

The expression for the acceleration using equation of motion can be expressed as,

v2=u2+2ad

Here, a is the acceleration and d is the distance.

Substitute 0 for u, 0.5 m for d, 3.429m/sfor v in the above equation.

3.429m/s2=0+2a0.5ma=3.429m/s220.5m=11.758m/s2

Hence, the acceleration is 11.758m/s2.

The expression for the force according to Newton鈥檚 second law in term of weight can be expressed as,

F=ma+w=ma+mg=ma+g=wga+g

Here w is the weight.

Substitute 9.8m/s2for g, 11.758m/s2for a in the above equation.

F=w9.8m/s29.8m/s2+11.758m/s2=2.2w

Hence, required force is 2.2w.

A medical technician is trying to determine what percentage of a patient鈥檚 artery is blocked by plaque. To do this, she measures the blood pressure just before the region of blockage and finds that it is 1.20104Pa, while in the region of blockage it is role="math" localid="1668168100834" 1.15104Pa. Furthermore, she knows that blood flowing through the normal artery just before the point of blockage is traveling at 30.0 cm/s, and the specific gravity of this patient鈥檚 blood is 1.06. What percentage of the cross-sectional area of the patient鈥檚 artery is blocked by the plaque?

A certain fuel-efficient hybrid car gets gasoline mileage of 55.0 mpg (miles per gallon). (a) If you are driving this car in Europe and want to compare its mileage with that of other European cars, express this mileage in km/L (1L = liter). Use the conversion factors in Appendix E. (b) If this car鈥檚 gas tank holds 45 L, how many tanks of gas will you use to drive 1500 km?

A driver in Massachusetts was sent to traffic court for speeding. The evidence against the driver was that a policewoman observed the driver鈥檚 car alongside a second car at a certain moment, and the policewoman had already clocked the second car going faster than the speed limit. The driver argued, 鈥淭he second car was passing me. I was not speeding.鈥 The judge ruled against the driver because, in the judge鈥檚 words, 鈥淚f two cars were side by side, both of you were speeding.鈥 If you were a lawyer representing the accused driver, how would you argue this case?

A cylindrical bucket, open at the top, is 25.0 cm high and 10.0 cm in diameter. A circular hole with a cross-sectional area 1.50 cm2 is cut in the center of the bottom of the bucket. Water flows into the bucket from a tube above it at the rate of 2.40 x 10-4m3/s. How high will the water in the bucket rise?

A Tennis Serve. In the fastest measured tennis serve, the ball left the racquet at 73.14m/s. A served tennis ball is typically in contact with the racquet for30.0and starts from rest. Assume constant acceleration. (a) What was the ball鈥檚 acceleration during this serve? (b) How far did the ball travel during the serve?
