Chapter 7: Problem 47 Physics for Scientists and Engineers: A Strategic Approach with Modern Physics 3
Problem 47P Jorge, with mass ?m?,is wearing roller skates whose coefficient of friction with the floor is ???r. He ties a massless rope around his waist, passes it around a frictionless pulley, and grabs hold of the other end, as shown in FIGURE. Jorge then pulls hand over hand on the rope with a constant force ?F.? Find an expression for Jorge’s acceleration toward the wall. FIGURE

Problem 53CP A 100 g ball of clay is thrown horizontally with a speed of 10 m/s toward a 900 g block resting on a frictionless surface. It hits the block and sticks. The clay exerts a constant force on the block during the 10 ms it takes the clay to come to rest relative to the block. After 10 ms, the block and the clay are sliding along the surface as a single system. a. What is their speed after the collision? ________________ b. What is the force of the clay on the block during the collision? ________________ c. What is the force of the block on the clay?

Problem 48P A 70 kg tightrope walker stands at the center of a rope. The rope supports are 10 m apart and the rope sags 10° at each end. The tightrope walker crouches down, then leaps straight up with an acceleration of 8.0 m/s2 to catch a passing trapeze. What is the tension in the rope as he jumps?

Chapter 7: Problem 50 Physics for Scientists and Engineers: A Strategic Approach with Modern Physics 3
A \(100 kg\) basketball player can leap straight up in the air to a height of \(80 cm\), as shown in Figure P7.50. You can understand how by analyzing the situation as follows: a. The player bends his legs until the upper part of his body has dropped by \(60 cm\), then he begins his jump. Draw separate free-body diagrams for the player and for the floor as he is jumping, but before his feet leave the ground. b. Is there a net force on the player as he jumps (before his feet leave the ground)? How can that be? Explain. c. With what speed must the player leave the ground to reach a height of \(80\) cm? d. What was his acceleration, assumed to be constant, as he jumped? e. Suppose the player jumps while standing on a bathroom scale that reads in newtons. What does the scale read before he jumps, as he is jumping, and after his feet leave the ground? ________________ Equation Transcription: Text Transcription: 100 kg 80 cm 60 cm 80 cm
