Young albert jr. takes a running start at a tire swing, which is hanging at rest. he jumps onto the tire and rides it up to a height δh above where the tire started, at which point he starts to swing back down. assuming albert jr. has a mass of ma and the tire has a mass of mt you are asked to calculate albert’s speed right before he jumped onto the tire. you may neglect the mass of the rope.

a) in terms of δh, ma and mt, what is the speed va+t of albert jr. and the tire right after albert has jumped on? what assumptions are you making and why?

b) what is the initial speed va of albert jr. right before he jumps on the swing, in terms of va+t, ma, and mt? what assumptions are you making and why? don’t forget that little albert clings to the tire, making this a totally inelastic collision.

c) solve for va in terms of δh, ma, and mt.

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?
