Robert Beaman's jump is proba-bly considered the most fantasticbecause it was set almost 26 yearsago at high altitude (accelerationdue to gravity g = 9.79 ms²) andwhere the air is thinner (lowerpressure) than at sea level. (regu-larg = 9.81 ms 2)(i) Calculate the effect thelower value of 'g' wouldhave on the length of thejump of an athlete whotook off with a velocity of9.20 ms at 22.0° to thehorizontal.

A lower value of g implies an increase in the length of a jump. I hope this helped you and you…

) Several planets possess nearly circular surrounding rings, perhaps composed of material that failed to form a satellite. In addition, many galaxies contain ringlike structures. Consider a homogeneous ring of mass M and radius R. a) What gravitational attraction does it exert on a particle of mass m located a distance x from the center of the ring along its axis? b) Suppose the particle falls from rest as a result of the attraction of the ring of matter. Find an expression for the speed with which it passes through the center of the ring. (a: see notes from class, b: Use the definition of potential energy.)
