Explanation:
The formula for KE ( Kinetic Energy ) is : 1/2 mv²
Solution:
- First we solve for v ( velocity ) using the formula 2gh, where g is gravity [ 9.8 m/s² ] and h is height [ 1.25 m ]
= 2 ( 9.8 m/s² × 1.25 m ) = 24.5 m/s
- The velocity is 24.5 m/s.
- Now solve for KE using the formula 1/2 mv²
= 1/2 ( 40 kg × 24.5m/s ² )
= 1/2 ( 40 kg × 600.25 )
= 1/2 ( 24,010 )
= 12,005 Joules
- The diver's kinetic energy is 12,005 J.
I don't understand the question your asking. can you explain more?
Answer:
g/9
Explanation:
length of the pendulum = L
time period on the earth = T
Time period on the planet = 3T
Let the acceleration due to gravity on the earth is g and on the planet is g'.
Use the formula for the time period of a simple pendulum for the time period on earth
.... (1)
Time period on the surface of planet is
.... (2)
Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

g' = g/9
Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is g /9
Mercury, Uranus, Earth, Neptune.
Hope this helps!
