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?
* Coulomb's Law Example Three charges are positioned as seen below. Charge 1 is +2.0 μC and charge 2 is +8.0μC, and charge 3 is - 6.0MC. What is the magnitude and the direction of the force on charge 2 due to charges 1 and 3? 93 kq92 F == 2 r13 = 0.090m 91 r12 = 0.12m 92 Coulomb's Constant: k = 8.99x10+9 Nm²/C² ✓
