A stuntman plans to run across a roof top and then horizontally off it to land on the roof of next bulding. The roof of the next building is 4.9 metre below the first one and 6.2 metre away from it. What should be his minimum roof top speed in m/s. so that he can successfully make the jump?

A

3.1

B

4

C

4.9

D

6.2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`x=sqrt((2h)/(g))xxu`
`rArr u=xsqrt((g)/(2h))=6.2xxsqrt(9.8)/(2xx4.9)=6.2m//s`

A man runs across the roof, top of a tall building and jumps horizontally with the hope of landing on the roof of the next building which is at a lower height than the first. If his speed is 9 m/s. the horizontal) distance between the two buildings is 10 m and the height difference is 9 m, will be able to land on the next building? (Take g = 10 m//s^(-2) )

Scientists are working hard to develop nuclear fusion reactor Nuclei of heavy hydrogen, _(1)^(2)H , known as deuteron and denoted by D , can be thought of as a candidate for fusion rector . The D-D reaction is _(1)^(2) H + _(1)^(2) H rarr _(2)^(1) He + n+ energy. In the core of fusion reactor, a gas of heavy hydrogen of _(1)^(2) H is fully ionized into deuteron nuclei and electrons. This collection of _1^2H nuclei and electrons is known as plasma . The nuclei move randomly in the reactor core and occasionally come close enough for nuclear fusion to take place. Usually , the temperature in the reactor core are too high and no material will can be used to confine the to plasma for a time t_(0) before the particles fly away from the core. If n is the density (number volume ) of deuterons , the product nt_(0) is called Lawson number.
