Answer:

2.846m

Explanation:

The diver is performing projectile motion.

To find x(final), we are going to use the equation x(final) = v(initial)*t + x(initial)

x(initial) = 0

x(final) = ?

v(initial) = 2.3 m/s

we don't know t

To find t we will use y(final) = 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2 + v(initial in the y dir.)*t + y(initial)

- 9.8 in the acceleration in the y dir.

y(final) = 0

y(initial) = 7.5

v(initial in the y dir.) = 0

If we solve for t we get: t = 1.237s

Now we have all the components to solve for x(final) in x(final) = v(initial)*t + x(initial)

x(final) = 2.3*1.237 + 0

x(final) = 2.846m

Monochromatic light falls on a slit that is 2.30×10−3mm wide. Part A If the angle between the first dark fringes on either side

slava [35]

Answer:

Wavelength, $\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Width of the slit, $d=2.3\times 10^{-3}\ mm=2.3\times 10^{-6}\ m$

The angle between the first dark fringes on either side of the central maximum is 34 degrees

To find,

The wavelength of the light used.

Solution,

The equation of maxima is given by :

$dsin\theta=n\lambda$

n = 1 here

$\lambda=\dfrac{d\ sin\theta}{n}$

$\lambda={d\ sin\theta}$

$\lambda={2.3\times 10^{-6}\times sin(34)}$

$\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$

So, the wavelength of the light used is $1.28\times 10^{-6}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

The terminal velocity of a person falling in air depends upon the weight and the area of the person facing the fluid. Find the t

yuradex [85]

Answer: 104.026 m/s=374.49 km/h

Explanation:

When a body or object falls, basically two forces act on it:

1. The force of air friction, also called "drag force" $D$ :

$D={C}_{d}\frac{\rho V^{2} }{2}A$ (1)

Where:

$C_ {d}=0.7$ is the drag coefficient

$\rho=1.21 kg/m^{3}$ is the density of the fluid (air in this case)

$V$ is the velocity

$A=0.17 m^{2}$ is the transversal area of the object

So, this force is proportional to the transversal area of the falling element and to the square of the velocity.

2. Its weight due to the gravity force $W$ :

$W=m.g$ (2)

Where:

$m=79.5 kg$ is the mass of the object

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

<h3>So, at the moment when the drag force equals the gravity force, the object will have its terminal velocity: </h3>

$D=W$ (3)

${C}_{d}\frac{\rho V^{2} }{2}A=m.g$ (4)

$V=\sqrt{\frac{2m.g}{\rho A{C}_{d}}}$ (5) This is the terminal velocity

Substituting the known values in (5):

$V=\sqrt{\frac{2(79.5 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})}{(1.21 kg/m^{3})(0.17m^{2}){(0.7)}}$ (6)

Then:

$V=104.026 m/s$ This is the final velocity in meters per second

Now, let's find the final velocity in kilometers per hour, knowing $1 km=1000 m$ and $1 h=3600 s$ :

$V=104.026 \frac{m}{s} (\frac{1 km}{1000 m})(\frac{3600 s}{1 h})=374.49 km/h$ This is the final velocity in kilometers per hour.
