Your question: "the picture shows a professional diver with a mass of 93 kg from a 25 m high cliff. Earths Gravity is acting on

the diver. Which statement best describes the reaction force to earths gravity in this situation?"

When we see the words "Which statement ... ", we know right away that there
will be a list of choices, and we're expected to select our answer from that list.
Strangely, the list of answer-choices for this question has been lost.

Similarly, when we see the words "The picture shows ... ", it's hard to fight
the impulse to look around.  In the present situation, <em>that's</em> missing too.

If the diver is just standing there, then the reaction force provided by the cliff
against his feet must be exactly equal to his weight.  If the vertical forces acting
on the soles of his feet were not balanced, then his feet would be accelerating
vertically.

His weight is  (mass) x (gravity) =

                     (93 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = <em>911.4 newtons</em> (about 205 pounds) .

That's also the strength of the upward reaction force provided by the cliff.

A 74-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.56 m,
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Work done, W = 1.44 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of boy, m = 74 kg

Initial speed of boy, u = 1.6 m/s

The boy then drops through a height of 1.56 m

Final speed of boy, v = 8.5 m/s

To find,

Non-conservative work was done on the boy.

Solution,

The work done by the non conservative forces is equal to the sum of total change in kinetic energy and total change in potential energy.

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)+(0-mgh)

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)-mgh

W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 74\times (8.5^2-1.6^2)-74\times 9.8\times 1.56

W = 1447.21 Joules

or

W = 1.44 kJ

Therefore, the non conservative work done on the boy is 1.44 kJ.

Two large rectangular aluminum plates of area 180 cm2 face each other with a separation of 3 mm between them. The plates are cha
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Electric flux;

Φ = 30.095 × 10⁴ N.m²/C

Explanation:

We are given;

Charge on plate; q = 17 µC = 17 × 10^(-6) C

Area of the plates; A_p = 180 cm² = 180 × 10^(-4) m²

Angle between the normal of the area and electric field; θ = 4°

Radius;r = 3 cm = 3 × 10^(-2) m = 0.03 m

Permittivity of free space;ε_o = 8.85 × 10^(-12) C²/N.m²

The charge density on the plate is given by the formula;

σ = q/A_p

Thus;

σ = (17 × 10^(-6))/(180 × 10^(-4))

σ = 0.944 × 10^(-3) C/m²

Also, the electric field is given by the formula;

E = σ/ε_o

E = (0.944 × 10^(-3))/(8.85 × 10^(-12))

E = 1.067 × 10^(8) N/C

Now, the formula for electric flux for uniform electric field is given as;

Φ = EAcos θ

Where A = πr² = π × 0.03² = 9π × 10^(-4) m²

Thus;

Φ = 1.067 × 10^(8) × 9π × 10^(-4) × cos 4

Φ = 30.095 × 10⁴ N.m²/C

Two identical pebbles are dropped. The first is dropped from a height of 256 feet and the second is dropped from a height of 400
ehidna [41]

Answer:

4.022 seconds and 4.99 seconds

Explanation:

Hello!

The free fall of the stone corresponds to a uniformly varied rectilinear movement

d=V_0*t+1/2*g*t^2

Being a free fall the initial speed is zero.

The distance is positive when considered in the same direction and direction as acceleration and speed.

256 feet stone

79.25 m=0 m⁄s*t+1/2*9,8 m⁄s^2 *t^2

t = 4.022 seconds

400 feet stone

121.92m=0 m⁄s*t+1/2*9,8 m⁄s^2 *t^2

t= 4,99 seconds

A circular loop of wire 75 mm in radius carries a current of 113 A. Find the (a) magnetic field strength and (b) energy density
Roman55 [17]

The magnetic field strength is 9.47 ×10⁻⁴ T

The energy density at the center of the loop is 0.36 J/m³

<h3>Calculating Magnetic field strength & Energy density </h3>

From the question, we are to find the magnetic field strength

The magnetic field strength of a loop can be calculated by using the formula,

B = \frac{\mu_{0} I}{2R}

Where  B is the magnetic field strength

\mu_{0} is the permeability of free space (\mu_{0}=4\pi \times 10^{-7} \ N/A^{2})

I is the current

and R is the radius

From the give information,

R = 75 \ mm= 75 \times 10^{-3} \ m

and I = 113 \ A

Putting the parameters into the formula, we get

B = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 113}{2 \times 75 \times 10^{-3} }

B = 9.47 \times 10^{-4} \ T

Hence, the magnetic field strength is 9.47 ×10⁻⁴ T

Now, for the energy density

Energy density can be calculated by using the formula,

u_{B}  = \frac{B^{2} }{2\mu_{0} }

Where u_{B} is the energy density

Then,

u_{B}= \frac{(9.47\times 10^{-4} )^{2} }{2 \times 4\pi \times 10^{-7} }

u_{B} = 0.36 \ J/m^{3}

Hence, the energy density at the center of the loop is 0.36 J/m³

What is the nature of force between two charges if q1+q2=0
MAXImum [283]
Answer:
The force will be attractive.


Explanation:
Since we the sum of the charges is 0 they must have opposite charges and equal magnitudes.

And Opposite charges are attaractive towards each other.
