A 56 kg pole vaulter falls from rest from a height of 5.1 m onto a foam rubber pad. The pole vaulter comes to rest 0.29 s after landing on the pad. Required:
a. Calculate the athlete's velocity just before reaching the pad
b. Calculate the constant force exerted on the pole vaulter due to the collision

We all use gps today, even if we don't drive yet. i bet you have been in the car with a parent and they have asked you to get out your phone to find a specific location. in your car, on the phone, you are using a very sophisticated technology. gps satellites circle the earth twice a day in a very precise orbit and transmit signal information to earth. gps receivers take this information and use trilateration to calculate the user's exact location. essentially, the gps receiver compares the time a signal was transmitted by a satellite with the time it was received. the time difference tells the gps receiver how far away the satellite is. now, with distance measurements from a few more satellites, the receiver can determine the user's position and display it on the unit's electronic map. what type of signal is utilized by the gps satellite?

Which one of the following terms is used to indicate the natural tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion at a constant speed along a straight line? velocity acceleration equilibrium force inertia

Neutrons are placed in a magnetic field with magnitude 2.30 t. part a part complete what is the energy difference between the states with the nuclear spin angular momentum components parallel and antiparallel to the field? δe δ e = 2.77×10−7 ev previous answers correct part b part complete which state is lower in energy: the one with its spin component parallel to the field or the one with its spin component antiparallel to the field? which state is lower in energy: the one with its spin component parallel to the field or the one with its spin component antiparallel to the field? parallel antiparallel previous answers correct part c part complete how do your results compare with the energy states for a proton in the same field (δe=4.05×10−7ev)? how do your results compare with the energy states for a proton in the same field this result is smaller than but comparable to that found in the example for protons. this result is greater than but comparable to that found in the example for protons. previous answers correct part d the neutrons can make transitions from one of these states to the other by emitting or absorbing a photon with energy equal to the energy difference of the two states. find the frequency of such a photon. f f = mhz previous answersrequest answer incorrect; try again; 5 attempts remaining
