A diver springs upward from a board that is 4.40 m above the water. At the instant she contacts the water her speed is 13.5 m/s

and her body makes an angle of 78.1 ° with respect to the horizontal surface of the water. Determine her initial velocity, both (a) magnitude and (b) direction.

The diver has the initial velocity, both (a) magnitude is 9.8 m/s and (b) direction is  73.5°.

<h3>What is free falling?</h3>

When an object is released from rest in free air considering no friction, the motion is depend only on the acceleration due to gravity, g.

If we drop an object of mass m near the Earth surface from a height h, it has initial mechanical energy(P.E)

U =mgh

When the object strikes the ground, all the potential energy converted into kinetic energy.

K.E = 1/2mv²

where v is the speed just before hitting the ground.

A diver springs upward from a board that is 4.40 m above the water. At the instant, she contacts the water her speed is 13.5 m/s and her body makes an angle of 78.1 ° with respect to the horizontal surface of the water.

(a)

From energy conservation principle, initial and final mechanical energy are equal.

1/2mu² + mgh = 1/2mv²

where, u is the initial velocity of the diver.

u = sq rt  (v² - 2gh)

u = sq rt (13.5² - 2x9.81x4.4)

u = 9.798 m/s or 9.8 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the diver is 9.8 m/s.

(b)

The horizontal component of velocity will remain constant.

The horizontal component of acceleration is zero.

Then,

ucosθ = vcosΦ

θ = cos⁻¹ [ (13.5 x cos 78.1)/9.8 ]

θ = 73.5°

Thus, the direction of velocity is  73.5°.

Chinook salmon are able to move upstream faster by jumping out of the water periodically; this behavior is called porpoising. Su
deff fn [24]

Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)

the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.

the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity

solve for time and you get T=D/V

time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43

add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59

that value is your total time

divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get

(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed

What mass of water must evaporate from the skin of a 70.0 kg man to cool his body 1.00 ∘C? The heat of vaporization of water at
romanna [79]

Answer:

100 cc

Explanation:

Heat released in cooling human body by t degree

= mass of the body x specific heat of the body x t

Substituting the data given

Heat released by the body

= 70 x 3480 x 1

= 243600 J

Mass of water to be evaporated

= 243600 / latent heat of vaporization of water

= 243600 / 2420000

= .1 kg

= 100 g

volume of water

= mass / density

= 100 / 1

100 cc

1 / 10 litres.
