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.

How much metabolic energy is required for a 68kg person to run at a speed of 15km/hr for 15min ?
irga5000 [103]
<span>What I have here is exactly the same problem, however, with the time changed to 19 mins:

metabolic energy = metabolic power*time = 1.150*19*60 = 1.311 kJ..corresponding to 1.311/4.186 = 313,2 Cal or kcal 

If we reasonably assume a metabolic eff.cy of 20%, it means we need to assume food for 1500 Cal approx.

Just plug the value t=15min to the equation and you will surely get the correct answer.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
