Answer:

4452.5 J.

Explanation:

The diver have both kinetic and potential energy.

Ek = 1/2mv² ................. Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic Energy of the diver, m = mass of the diver, v = velocity of the diver.

Given: m = 65 kg, v = 6.4 m/s.

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(65)(6.4²)

Ek = 1331.2 J.

Also,

Ep = mgh ............................ Equation 2

Where Ep =  Potential energy of the diver when its above the water, h = height of the diver above the water, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 65 kg, h = 4.9 m, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2.

Ep = 65(4.9)(9.8)

Ep = 3121.3 J.

Note: When she hits the water, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

E = Ek+Ep

Where E = Kinetic energy of the diver when she hits the water.

E = 1331.2+3121.3

E = 4452.5 J.

Radda [10]

Answer:

160J

Explanation:

Given force = 8N and total distance = 20 meters

Workdone = force x distance

= 8 x 20

= 160J

Therefore, workdone by Riley in pulling the hoover is 160J

A force of 5 n produces an acceleration of 8m/s2 in mass m1 and an acceleration of 24 m/s2 in mass m2 .what acceleration would i
Inessa [10]

Acceleration of the both masses tied together= 6m/s²

Explanation:

The force is given by F= ma

so 5= m1 (8)

m1=0.625 Kg

for m2

5=m2 (24)

m2=0.208 kg

now total mass= m1+m2=0.625+0.208

Total mass=M=0.833 Kg

now F= ma

5= 0.833 (a)

a= 5/0.833

a=6m/s²
