A ski jumper starts with a horizontal take-off velocity of 25 m/s and lands on a straight landing hill inclined at 30o. Determine (a) the time between take-off and landing, (b) the length d of the jump, (c) the maximum vertical distance between the jumper and the landing hill.

0.34s, 8.5m,31.89m

Explanation:

The above motion defines a projectile motion.

Now the athletes lands on a cliff 30° to the horizontal this means the velocity at that point would be 25m/s cos30°

Now from Newton's law of motion.

The body would be decelerating so,

V = u - gt

Where u is initial velocity and v is final velocity. g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity.

Hence,

V-U/ -g = t

Hence 25cos30 - 25/ -9.8 = 0.34s.

2.Now the length of the jump is defined as the total horizontal distance which is marked off by the horizontal velocity and time taken for take off and landing.

Hence Distance,S = u × t

25 ×0.34 =8.5m.

3. The maximum height is defined that at that point the Final velocity is 0m/s

Now the initial velocity is 25m/s

From Newton's law that;

V2= U2 -2gH; where U and V are initial and final velocity and H is height.

Hence H = V2-U2/-2g

=(0)^2- (25)^2/ -2×9.8

= -625/-19.6 =31.89m

the temperature in kelvin of 2.0 dm3 of an ideal gas is doubled and its pressure is increased by a factor of four. what is the final volume of the gas
