Awesome, thanks a lot for all the help! I really appreciate it. :biggrin:
Edit: Also, what's the connection/reason for using the F= m∆v/∆t formula/equation? Any way to connect it to any of the "basic" formulas for the things I mentioned earlier that we had talked about in class (kinetic and...
Let me see if I got this right (English isn't my primary language, nor the language in which my physics education is held, so I might've misunderstood some parts of this last post since I'm not too sure about how to solve this third question to begin with)
F= \frac{m × ∆v}{∆t} \Leftrightarrow...
Thanks.
And yes, my arguments for why these things are happening on #2 are pretty vague. Thanks for the help, really appreciate it.
I assume this would be caused because of the scale having to push the man upward with a higher force to stop his fall, as opposed to simply holding him in...
Homework Statement
The graph below shows the force as a function of time when a man jumps on a bathroom scale.
1) Determine the mans weight (mass, kg) using the graph.
2) Describe what happens in the time intervals A, B, C and D.
3) Determine the velocity of the man as he leaves the scale...
