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.

An ideal gas occupies 0.4 m3 at an absolute pressure of 500 kPa. What is the absolute pressure if the volume changes to 0.9 m3 a
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

<h2>2.22 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{0.4 \times 500000}{0.9}   =  \frac{200000}{0.9} \\  = 222222.2222... \\  = 222222

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.22 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you

which of the four forces makes paint cling to a wall ?which force makes adhesive sticky?which force makes wax to stick a car ?
True [87]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because of the absence of options.

However, <u>the force that makes a paint cling to a wall is adhesive force</u>. Adhesive force is the force between two unlike substances like a liquid clinging to a solid surface.

The force between adhesives or glue is also the force that makes them sticky. <u>This force is referred to as cohesive force</u>. This is a force found in between similar molecules (unlike adhesive force found between dissimilar molecules).

<u>The force that makes wax to stick to a car is electromagnetic force</u>. This is a force between charged particles; whether they appear to be moving or not. These particles of opposite charges come together to form a neutral force. In this case, charged atoms of the car and the wax come together (which causes what we see as the wax sticking to the car).

Which theory of emotion explains the startle response
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

In the present study, the startle blink reflex is used as a measure of emotion regulation to effective picture stimuli. Based on the aphasic theory of emotion, it is hypothesized that the startle response will be largest in magnitude in the presence of negative emotional stimuli (Varanasi, Spence, & Lang, 1988).
