- Pregnancy dramatically affects the energetics of swimming for female dolphins. Dolphins have an approximately circular cross section and are very streamlined. A typical dolphin has a girth—the circumference at the widest part of the body—of 1.4 m and a drag coefficient of 0.090. Advanced pregnancy increases the girth to 1.7 m and, with a less streamlined shape, the drag coefficient to 0.22. Dolphins typically cruise at a speed of 3.4 m/s a.What will be the cruising speed of a pregnant dolphin if she swims with the same power output as before becoming pregnant?arrow_forwardA cube of mass m = 61 kg slides along a horizontal surface.

A 720 kg steel ball is suspended from a 10-m-long cable on a crane. A hook on the crane slowly pulls the ball back, then releases it. The ball's speed at the lowest point in its arc, just before striking the building, is 4.5 m/s Part A At the lowest point in the ball's arc, O the tension in the cable is less than mg because the ball is moving down. O the tension in the cable is equal to mg because tension and gravity are the only forces and they balance. O the tension in the cable is greater than mg because there has to be a net upward force.

In1994 Laurent Jalabert crashed into a gendarme (policeman) and was seriously hurt.Sometimes riders can stop to avoid a collision, sometimes not. It depends on friction and reaction time. The 95-kg Jalabert was speeding at 40 mph along the level street on a wet day. The coefficient of kinetic friction between his wheels and the road was 0.13. He looked up to see the gendarme about 44 m (about half of a football field) ahead of him. If he has typical human reaction time (0.15 s), how close will he be to the gendarme when he begins to apply the brakes? Round the final answer to two decimal places. As Jalabert skids, what is the magnitude of his acceleration? Round the final answer to two decimal places. How fast was Jalabert going when he hit the gendarme? Round the final answer to one decimal place.arrow_forwardA desperate hiker has to think fast to help his friend who has fallen below him. Quickly, he ties a rope to a rock of mass ma and makes his way over the ledge (see the figure).

Assume the rope is parallel to the ground and the point where the rope passes over the ledge is frictionless. mc = Juarrow_forward
- A water slide is connected so that a swimmer, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leaves the end of the slide travelling horizontally. one person hits the water 6m from the end of the slide in a time 0.4 seconds after leaving the slide. ignoring friction and air resistance, find the height H. b) how does the answer change if the swimmer leves the end at an angle of 10 degrees above the horizontal?arrow_forwardOn a beautiful spring day Rosie and Frankie decide to go skateboarding at the local skate park. Frankie has this really cool trick that she wants to try out on one of the half-pipe at the park. She tells Rosie to go stand on her skateboard in the center at the bottom of the half-pipe. Frankie then tells Rosie she is going to drop down from rest at the top of the half-pipe which stands at a height of 4.5 m. Frankie tells Rosie to grab onto her arms when she gets to the bottom so they can create a perfectly inelastic collision and move together after the collision. Unfortunately, when Frankie attempts this trick another skater named Mike drops down from rest on the other side (which is at the same height of 4.5 m) behind Rosie which results in the screaming Rosie-Frankie combination colliding elastically with Mike. If Rosie has a mass of 50.0 kg, Frankie has a mass of 70.0 kg, and Mike has a mass of 100.0 kg what is the final velocity of all three of the skaters after the elastic…arrow_forward39. a.
