When the diver reaches maximum height, the upward velocity will be zero.
We shall use the formula
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh
where
v = 0 (velocity at maximum height)
u = 1.2 m/s, intial upward velocity
g = -9.8 m/s^2, gravitational acceleration (downward)
h = maximum height attained above the diving board.
Therefore
0 = 1.2^2 - 2*9.8*h
h = 1.2^2/(2*9.8) = 0.0735 m
Answer: 0.074 m (nearest thousandth)
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
5 N = (9 kg) x (acceleration)
Divide each side
by 9 kg : 5 N / 9 kg = acceleration
Acceleration = (5/9) kg-meter/sec²-kg
= 0.555... m/s² .
Answer:
e) indicated that the speed of light is the same in all inertial reference frames.
Explanation:
In 18th century, many scientists believed that the light just like air and water needs a medium to travel. They called this medium <em>aether</em>. They believed that even the space is not empty and filled with aether.
Michelson and Morley tried to prove the presence and speed of this aether through an interference experiment in 1887. They made an interferometer in which light was emitted at various angles with respect to the supposed aether. Both along the flow and against the flow to see the difference in the speed of light. But they did not find no major difference and thus it became the first proof to disprove the theory of aether.
It thus proved that the speed of light remains same in all inertial frames.
Also, it became a base for the special theory of relativity by Einstein.
The solution would be like
this for this specific problem:
<span>5.5 g = g + v^2/r </span><span>
<span>4.5 g =
v^2/r </span>
<span>v^2 = 4.5
g * r </span>
<span>v = sqrt
( 4.5 *9.81m/s^2 * 350 m) </span>
v = 124
m/s</span>
So the pilot will black out for this dive at 124
m/s. I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your query and it
will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to

Answer:
F = 2.69 10⁻³ m [ N]
Explanation:
This exercise asks to calculate the gravitational field of the Earth on the lunar surface, let's use the universal gravitation law
F = G m M / r²
where m is the mass of the body, M the mass of the Earth and r the distance between the Earth and the Moon
F = (G M / r²) m
F = (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / (3.85 10⁸)² ) m
F = 2.69 10⁻³ m [ N]
This force is directed from the Moon towards the Earth, therefore it reduces the weight of the body
