Answer:
Kinetic energy of diver at 90% of the distance to the water is 9000 J
Explanation:
Let d is the distance between the position of the diver and surface of the pool.
Initially, the diver is at rest and only have potential energy which is equal to 10000 J.
As the diver dives towards the pool, its potential energy is converting into kinetic energy due to law of conservation of energy, as total energy of the system remains same.
Energy before diving = Energy during diving
(Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy) = (Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy)
When the diver reaches 90% of the distance to the water, its kinetic energy
is 90% to its initial potential energy, as its initial kinetic is zero,i.e.,
K.E. = 
K.E. = 9000 J
Answer:The sun, earth, and moon are held together by gravity, and they interact in lots of ways.
- The tides are another interaction in the sun-earth-moon system. The tides happen because the moon and sun pull on the oceans, causing them to rise and fall each day. The moon has a bigger effect than the sun because it is closer.
Answer:
1. 75N
2. 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)
Explanation:
1. Work = Force x Distance
we are given that Work = 1,500J and Distance = 20m
hence,
Work = Force x Distance
1,500 = Force x 20
Force = 1,500 ÷ 20 = 75N
2. Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height
we are given that mass = 165 kg and change in height = 42m
assuming that gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height
Potential Energy, PE = 165 x 9.81 x 42 = 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)
This is simple as power in watts is equal to joules per second so we can do 1500 joules divided by 30 seconds which equals 50 watts
The acceleration is 3 m/s per minute, or 0.05 m/s per second.
