Answer:

Explanation:

When the diver stands on the platform, at 20 m above the surface of the water, he has some gravitational potential energy, which is given as

E =mgh

where m is the man's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the water. The moment he jumps, the gravitational potential energy starts decreasing, because its height h above the water decreases as well, and he acquires kinetic energy, which is given as

K.E = 1/2mv^2

where v is the velocity of the diver, which is increasing. When he touches the water, all the initial gravitational potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.

Think about the texts:
8090 [49]

Explanation:

So first of all you need to look at the author and artist. Then you would need to find their attitudes towards slavery. Lastly you would need to find out how both attitudes are different from each other. Unfortunately I cannot give you a complete answer because I have not read the story and I don't know the author or artist. So just follow these steps and you should get farther. Let me know if you need any further help.
