Answer:

1120 N

Explanation:

The velocity with which he hits the water can be found with kinematics:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (-9.00 m)

v = -13.3 m/s

Or it can be found with conservation of energy.

PE = KE

mgh = ½ mv²

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2 × -9.8 m/s² × -9.00 m)

v = -13.3 m/s

Sum of forces on the diver after he hits the water:

∑F = ma

F − mg = m Δv/Δt

F − (74.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = (74.0 kg) (0 m/s − (-13.3 m/s)) / (2.50 s)

F = 1120 N

Answer:

A. Archinedes

Explanation:

Archimedes' principle states that a body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upwards force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This is a first condition of equilibrium.

A car of mass 500 kg is moving at a speed of 1.2 m/s. A man pushes the car, increasing the speed to 2 m/s. How much work did the
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Option B - 360 J

Explanation:

One of the formulas used to find out how much work was done is :

E = 0.5×m×v² (where m is the mass and v is the velocity)

Now we substitute values from the question and simplify :

E = 0.5×500×1.2²

E = 250×1.2²

E = 250×1.44

E = 360 J

So our answer is Option B

Hope this helped and have a good day

(a) Calculate the buoyant force on a 2.00-L helium balloon.
iragen [17]

Answer:

0.0239364 N

0.0057879 N

Explanation:

\rho = Density of the gas

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

V = Volume

Mass of rubber = 1.5 g

Buoyant force is given by

F_b=\rho gV\\\Rightarrow F_b=1.22\times 9.81\times 2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow F_b=0.0239364\ N

The buoyant force is 0.0239364 N

Net vertical force is given by

F_n=F_b-W_{He}-W_{r}\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0239364-0.175\times 2\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81-1.5\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0057879\ N

The net vertical force is 0.0057879 N
