The motion of the diver is a free-fall motion, so it is a uniform accelerated motion. Choosing downward as positive direction, the final velocity can be found by using the following suvat equation:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

v is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the diver starts from rest)

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

s is the displacement

For the diver jumping from 5 m, s = 5 m, so

$v=\sqrt{2as}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(5)}=9.9 m/s$

For the diver jumping from 10 m, s = 10 m, so

$v=\sqrt{2as}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(10)}=14 m/s$

2) Time: 1.01 s and 1.43 s

The time of flight of each diver can be found by using the other suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

And since u = 0, it can be reduced to

$s=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

For the diver jumping from 5 m, s = 5 m, so we find

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(5)}{9.8}}=1.01 s$

For the diver jumping from 10 m, s = 10 m, so we find

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10)}{9.8}}=1.43 s$

What is evaporation? Condensation? Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Evaporation is the physical change in which a substance converts from its liquid state to its gaseous state. Condensation is the physical change in which a substance converts from its gaseous state to its liquid state.

Explanation:

Evaporation and condensation are opposite processes to each other. Evaporation changes a liquid to a gas and condensation is the reverse.

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorous and oxygen act together as on

S_A_V [24]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Answer:

There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Explanation:

The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.

In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.

The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.
