1.5 ms, and t₁ = 2 ms. From this curve, determine the following.
There are many well-documented cases of people surviving falls from heights greater than 20.0 m. In one such case, a 55.0 kg woman survived a fall from a 10th floor balcony, 29.0 m above the ground, onto the garden below, where the soil had been turned in preparation for planting.
Because of the "give" in the soil, which the woman compressed a distance of 15.0 cm upon impact, she survived the fall and was only briefly hospitalized.
(a) Ignoring air resistance, what was her impact speed with the ground (in m/s)?
m/s
(b) What was the magnitude of her deceleration during the impact in terms of g?
g
(c) Assuming a constant acceleration, what was the time interval (in s) during which the soil brought her to a stop?
S
(d) What was the magnitude of the impulse (in N⚫ s) felt by the woman during impact?
N⚫s
(e) What was the magnitude of the average force (in N) felt by the woman during impact?
N
Example
Two charges, one with +10 μC of charge, and
another with - 7.0 μC of charge are placed in
line with each other and held at a fixed distance
of 0.45 m. Where can you put a 3rd charge of +5
μC, so that the net force on the 3rd charge is
zero?
