A dog has a mass of m = 25kg. when he jumps, his muscles are able to produce 450 J of energy. Suppose the dog jumps horizontally from a very massive boat (so massive that it will not move) as fast as he can from a height of h = meter.

a)What velocity (Vo) will the dog have once he jumps?

b)If this boat is floating 2.5 meters away from a Frisbee in the water, will the dog be able to jump on top of it?

c)The dog now jumps horizontally from a lighter canoe (mass = 25kg) also from a height of h = 1. Determine the velocity of the dog and canoe after he jumps.

d)If the canoe is floating 2.5 meters away from the same Frisbee, and the dog is again jumping from a height of h = 1 meters, will the dog be able to jump on top of the Frisbee?

An Electron is incident on a nitrogen atom (mass=7.37x10-25kg). The electrons initial velocity is 4x104 m/s. The nitrogen atom is at rest. If The electron deflects backwards at an angle of 35 degrees below the horizontal, and at 3.7x104m/s what is the velocity and direction of the nitrogen atom? (mass of an electron is 9.11x10-31kg)

A dog food manufacturer is using a new process to make his dog food. He believes the new process affects the taste of the food. To test the new process, the company recruited 9 dogs. The dogs were given the original food and the time required to eat a standard portion of the food was measured. Two days later the same dogs were fed the same quantity of the new formula and the time was measured again. Eating faster is assumed to...

A bungee jumper with mass 64.5 kg jumps from a high bridge. After arriving at his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, reaching a low point seven more times in 44.0 s . He finally comes to rest 20.5 m below the level of the bridge. Part A Estimate the spring stiffness constant of the bungee cord assuming SHM. Part B Estimate the unstretched length of the bungee cord assuming SHM.

A 90 kg student jumps off a bridge with a 10-m-long bungee cord tied to his feet. The massless bungee cord has a spring constant of 390 N/m. You can assume that the bungee cord exerts no force until it begins to stretch. How far below the bridge is the student's lowest point? How far below the bridge is the student's resting position after the oscillations have been fully damped?
