Answer:

Proper weighting

Explanation:

Proper weighing involves the condition of a scuba diver that is fully geared having a near empty tank and the BCD emptied with a held breadth is expected to float at eye level

The fundamental of adequate or good buoyancy of a scuba diver is to ensure proper weighting when diving, With proper weighting, there is more control for the diver when a safety stop is required. There is less need to carry excess weight that increases drag and gas consumption.

Answer:

Explanation:

graph would be a straight line from (0, 0) to (400, 8)

Plot points are

PE = mgh

50(0) = 0 J

50(2) = 100 J

50(4) = 200 J

50(6) = 300 J

50(8) = 400 J

The best rebounders in basketball have a vertical leap (that is, the vertical movement of a fixed point on their body) of about

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a) 4.45 m/s

b) 0.9 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -9.81\times 1}\\\Rightarrow u=4.45\ m/s$

a) The vertical speed when the player leaves the ground is 4.45 m/s

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-4.45}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.45\ s$

Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.45 seconds

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 1=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{1\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.45\ s$

Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.45 seconds

b) Time the player stayed in the air is 0.45+0.45 = 0.9 seconds

two 2.5 kg balls move away from each other one traveling 3 m/s to the right the other 4 m/s to the left what is the magnitude of

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

2.5 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Taking left side as positive while right side direction as negative then

Momentum, p= mv where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of travel

Momentum for ball moving towards right side=mv=2.5*-3=-7.5 kg.m/s

Momentum for the ball moving towards the left side=mv=2.5*4=10 kg.m/s

Total momentum=-7.5 kg.m/s+10 kg.m/s=2.5 kg.m/s
