- Check Your Understanding You probably recall that, neglecting air resistance, if you throw a projectile straight up, the time ii takes to reach its maximum height equals the time it takes to fall from the maximum height back to the starting height. Suppose you cannot neglect air resistance, as in Example 8.8. Is the time the projectile takes to go up (a) greater than, (b) less than, or (c) equal to the time It takes to come back down? Explain.arrow_forwardThere is a 5K event coming up in your town. While talking to your grandmother, who uses an electric scooter for mobility, she says that she would like to accompany you on her scooter while you walk the 5.00-km distance. The manual that came with her scooter claims that the fully charged battery is capable of providing 120 Wh of energy before being depleted. In preparation for the race, you go for a test drive: beginning with a fully charged battery, your grandmother rides beside you as you walk 5.00 km on flat ground. At the end of the walk, the battery usage indicator shows that 40.0% of the original energy in the battery remains. You also know that the combined weight of the scooter and your grandmother is 890 N. A few days later, filled with confidence that the battery has sufficient energy, you and your grandmother drive to the 5K event. Unbeknownst to you, the 5K route is not on flat ground, but is all uphill, ending at a point higher than the starting line. A race official tells you that the total amount of vertical displacement on the route is 150 m. Should your grandmother accompany you on the walk, or will she be stranded when her battery runs out of energy? Assume that the only difference between your test drive and the actual event is the vertical displacement.arrow_forwardIntegrated Concepts A 75.0-kg cross-country skier is climbing a 3.0° slope at a constant speed of 2.00 m/s and encounters air resistance of 25.0 N. Find his power output for work done against the gravitational force and air resistance. (b) What average force does he exert backward on the snow to accomplish this? (c) If he continues to exert this force and to experience the same air resistance when he reaches a level area, how long will it take him to reach a velocity of 10.0 m/s?arrow_forward

The energy expended by the rideris used to generate electricity, which is then dissipated. Rather than dissipate the energy, it could be usedfor something useful. A typical person can maintain a steady output of 400W on an exercise bike.Assuming an efficiency of 80% for the generator, and 25-30% for the human body, what amount of usefulpower could be produced by a single rider?How many people would need to ride at the gym to produce 400W to power a TV?arrow_forward
