The second diver have to leap to make a competitive splash by 4.08 m high.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The energy by virtue of its position is called the potential energy.

PE = mgh

where, g = 9.81 m/s²

Given is the diver jumps from a 3.00-m platform. one diver has a mass of 136 kg and simply steps off the platform. another diver has a mass of 100 kg and leaps upward from the platform.

The potential energy of the first diver must be equal to the second diver.

P.E₁ = P.E₂

m₁gh₁ = m₂gh₂

Substitute the vales, we have

136 x 3  = 100 x h₂

h₂ = ₂4.08 m

Thus, the second diver need to leap by 4.08 m high.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The maximum temperature rise = 0.047 °C

Explanation:

Potential Energy, P = mgh

Energy transfered, Q=mcΔT

Potential energy  = Energy transfered

mgh = mcΔT

gh = cΔT

ΔT = gh/c

ΔT = (9.81 * 20) / 4186

ΔT = 0.047 °C

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

22.505 seconds

Explanation:

V =19.8m/s

V = a*to

t1 = 19.8/3.3

= 6seconds

Distance travelled during acceleration

= 1/2 x 3.3 x 6²

= 59.4m

X_total = x1 + x2

X2 = 373-59.4

X2 = 313.6m

t2 = x2/v

= 313.6/19.8

= 16.505

Total = 16.505 + 6

= 22.505 seconds

the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor is 22.505 seconds.

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i
inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:<span>

Consider a simple pendulum with a period
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

1. The length is 8.35m

2. The period on the moon is 14.05 secs

Explanation:

1. Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Period (T) = 5.8 secs

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s2

Length (L) =...?

The length can be obtained by using the formula given below:

T = 2π√(L/g)

5.8 = 2π√(L/9.8)

Take the square of both side

(5.8)^2 = 4π^2 x L/ 9.8

Cross multiply

4π^2 x L = (5.8)^2 x 9.8

Divide both side by 4π^2

L = (5.8)^2 x 9.8 / 4π^2

L= 8.35 m

2. Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 1.67 m/s2

Length (L) = 8.35m (the length remains the same)

Period (T) =?

The period can be obtained as follow:

T = 2π√(L/g)

T = 2π√(8.35/1.67)

T = 14.05 secs

Therefore, the period on the moon is 14.05 secs
