You can painlessly wade into a pool, but doing a belly flop off of the high diving board hurts because of the cohesion of the water molecules.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is represented as H20 where two hydrogen atoms are bonded to one oxygen atom. Due to force of attraction between the water molecules they stick together providing a greater force when an object or a body acts upon them.

Hence moving slowly in water or dipping slowly will not produce any opposite form whereas flipping does as it tries to separate the body between the water molecules when we fall with a certain amount of force.

The 1350-kg car has a velocity of 24 km/h up the 8-percent grade when the driver applies more power for 18 s to bring the car up
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply concept of impulse to solve the problem  .

Impulse = force x time

impulse = change in momentum

force x time = change in momentum

initial speed u = 24 km/h = 6.67 m /s

final speed v = 65 km/h = 18.05 m /s

change in momentum = m v - mu

= m ( v-u )

= 1350 ( 18.05 - 6.67 )

= 15363 kg m/s

F x 18 = 15363

F = 853.5 N .

Convert the volume 8.06 in.3 to m3, recalling that1in. =2.54cmand100cm=1m. Answer in units of m3.
galina1969 [7]
1 in=2.54 cm=(2.54 cm)(1 m/100 cm)=0.0254 m
Therefore:
1 in=0.0254 m
1 in³=(0.0254 m)³=1.6387064 x 10⁻⁵ m³

Therefore:

8.06 in³=(8.06 in³)(1.6387064 x 10⁻⁵ m³ / 1 in³)≈1.321 x 10⁻⁴ m³.

Answer: 8.06 in³=1.321 x 10⁻⁴ m³

What motivates the squire in lines 85- 90?
just olya [345]
<span>Answer: If you mean the Knight in the prologue, the man traveling with his son (the Squire) and a Yeoman, he is traveling to Canterbury to give thanks for his safe return from the wars in the Baltic. We're told that he has never been known to speak unkindly to anyone, a fact that sums up his chivalrous upbringing. Evidently he feels strongly motivated to live by a code of high standards and refined behavior.</span>
