Unimpressed with your previous stunt, the director of the new James Bond movie has come to you with a more exciting idea. In this stunt,
Bond will run towards a bridge that is 18m above a river. His partner
is in a speedboat 60 meters away from the bridge. Bond jumps
horizontally off the bridge with a speed of 6.7 m/s toward where
his partner is waiting. Starting from rest, his partner begins racing
toward the bridge the moment Bond jumps. What is the minimum
acceleration his partner will need in order to catch Bond before he
hits the water?

The minimum acceleration his partner will need in order to catch Bond before he hits the water is 25.688 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let be the initial position of the sppedboat the reference location, James Bond jumps horizontally and experiments a parabolic motion, which consists in a horizontal motion at constant velocity and an vertical uniform accelerated motion due to gravity.

Speedboat must accelerate from rest and get Bond at right location and instant. Now we describe the appropriate equations of motion for James Bond and for the speedboat:

James Bond

$x_{B} = x_{B,o} + v_{B,o,x} \cdot t$

$y_{B} = y_{B,o} + v_{B, o, y}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2}$

Speedboat

$x_{S} = x_{S,o}+v_{S,o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{S}\cdot t^{2}$

Where:

$x_{B,o}$ , $x_{S,o}$ - Initial horizontal positions for James Bond and the speedboat, measured in meters.

$x_{B}$ , $x_{S}$ - Current horizontal positions for James Bond and the speedboat, measured in meters.

$v_{B,o,x}$ , $v_{S,o}$ - Initial horizontal velocities of James Bond and the speedboat, measured in meters per second.

$v_{B,o, y}$ - Initial vertical velocity of James Bond, measured in meters per second.

- Time, measured in seconds.

- Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$a_{S}$ - Acceleration of the speedboat, measured in meters per square second.

We must observe the following conditions such as we may calculate the minimum acceleration of the speedboat:

1) $x_{B} = x_{S}$

2) $y_{B} = 0\,m$

Now, if we know that $x_{B,o} = 60\,m$ , $x_{S,o} = 0\,m$ , $y_{B, o} = 18\,m$ , $y_{B} = 0\,m$ , $v_{B,o, x} = -6.7\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{S,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{B,o,y} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the resulting system of equations is:

$60\,m +\left(-6.7\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t = 0\,m +\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{S}\cdot t^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{S}\cdot t^{2} +\left(6.7\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t -60\,m = 0$ (Eq. 1)

$0\,m = 18\,m +\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot t^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot t^{2}+18\,m = 0$ (Eq. 2)

At first we get the time from (Eq. 2) by using the Quadratic Formula:

$t_{1} \approx 1.916\,s$ and $t_{2}\approx -1.916\,s$

Only the first root is physically reasonable. ( $t\approx 1.916\,s$ )

Then, we substitute time in (Eq. 1) and clear the acceleration of the speedboat:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{S}\cdot (1.916\,s)^{2} +\left(6.7\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (1.916\,s) -60\,m = 0$

$1.836\cdot a_{S}-47.163\,m = 0$

$a_{S} = 25.688\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

The minimum acceleration his partner will need in order to catch Bond before he hits the water is 25.688 meters per square second.

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!
