Problem 10.65
In an amusement park water slide, people slide down an essentially frictionless tube. The top of the slide is 3.2m above the bottom where they exit the slide, moving horizontally, 1.2m above a swimming pool.
Part A
What horizontal distance do they travel from the exit point before hitting the water?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
d =
mgh = 1/2 *mv^2
v = sqrt (2gh
= 7.92 m/s
**************
s = 1/2*a*t^2
1.2 = 0.5 *9.8 *t^2
t = 0.49
d = v*t
distance = 3.92 m

An amusement park has a water slide consisting of a curving channel, down which people slide on rubber mats. Water is pumped to the top of the slide, which is 60.0 ft high. The inlet pipe to the pump is 6 inches in diameter, the outlet pipe is 4 inches in diameter. Determine the power required by the pump is the flow rate is 1.00 ft3/s. Neglect friction. 1. I 8 in
Starting at rest, Tina slides down a frictionless waterslide with a horizontal section at the bottom that is 5.58 ft above the surface of the swimming pool and strikes the water a distance of 15.9 ft away from the end of the slide. Using conservation of energy, what is Tina's initial height on the waterslide? 16.85 x ft above the bottom of the slide Submit Answer Save Progress
A 45 kg child slides down a straight frictionless water slide. The slide is 16 m long and set at angle of 28o above horizontal.1.Find the work done by gravity on the child.2.If the child started at rest at the top, what is the speed of the child at the bottom of the slide?
A water slide launches a child horizontally above a swimming pool. vertical distance from the top of the slide to the launch point is 4.41 m. The point where the child is launched horizontally is 1.16 m above the water. How far from the launch point does the child land in the water?
A water slide launches a child horizontally above a swimming pool. vertical distance from the top of the slide to the launch point is 3.18 m. The point where the child is launched horizontally is 0.67 m above the water. How far from the launch point does the child land in the water?
A 52.3 kg child slides down a water slide with a velocity of 1.1 m/sec at the top. At the bottom of the slide, she is moving horizontally, y=1.5 meters above the water. She splashes into the water d=2 meters to the left of the bottom of the slide. a: Assuming potential energy to be zero at the water level, what is the mechanical energy of the child at the top of the slide? b: How high is the top...
Please assist with this Physics question. A 117 kg seal at an amusement park slides from rest down a ramp into the pool below. The top of the ramp is 1.85 m higher than the surface of the water and the ramp is inclined at an angle of 26.5 ° above the horizontal. Part A If the seal reaches the water with a speed of 4.10 m/s, what is the work done by kinetic friction? Express your answer using three...
You are riding the new rollercoaster Fizzix Phun at your local amusement park. The technician with a mass of 90kg clears your car for 'takeoff'. The rollercoaster car full of people with a mass of 2000 kg is pulled up the initial hill by a lift device. The maintenance stairs up to the top of the hill consist of 11 flights of 30 stairs each wherein a single stair are 10cm high. The drop down the first hill is terrifyingly...
