A diver with a mass of 80.0 kg jumps from a dock into a 130.0 kg boat at rest on the west side of the dock. if the velocity of t

he diver in the air is 4.10 m/s to the west, what is the final velocity of the diver after landing in the boat?

Applying conservation of momentum;

m_{1}  v_{1} + m_{2}  v_{2} = m_{f}  v_{f}

Where m1 = 80.0 kg; v1 =4.10 m/s; m2 = 130.0 kg; v2 = 0; mf = (80+130) kg; vf = ??

Therefore,
80*4.1 + 130*0 = 210*vf
vf = (80*4.1)/210 = 1.56 m/s

Which of the following describes the effect of a convex mirror on light rays?
natulia [17]
B. It reflects light rays outward.

A convex mirror looks like this ⊂.  So when light rays hit the outward curves, it bends the light rays outwards, and backwards,  and it would appear to be coming from its center called the focus.

A small boat coasts at constant speed under a bridge. A heavy sack of sand is dropped from the bridge onto the boat. The speed o
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

d. decreases

Explanation:

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that the sum of momenta before the collision is equal to the sum of momenta after the collision. The bag has no momentum as it falls onto the boat because its velocity is zero in the horizontal direction. But after it hits the boat, it's momentum increases while the momentum of the system remains the same. That means a component of the system must decrease somewhere else. And that component is the velocity, not the mass, of the boat.
