Answer:
1) The time it takes the diver to move off the end of the diving board to the pool surface, , is approximately 1.392 seconds
2) The horizontal distance from the edge of the pool to where the diver enters the water, , is approximately 5.76 meters
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
The height of the diving board above the pool's surface, h = 9.5 m
The length by which the diving board over hangs the pool L = 2 m
The speed with which the diver runs horizontally along the diving board, v₀ = 2.7 m/s
Taking = The time it takes the diver to move off the end of the diving board to the pool surface
Therefore, we have from the equation of free fall;
h = 1/2 × g × ²
Where;
g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Substituting the values, gives;
9.5 = 1/2 × 9.81 × ²
= √(9.5/(1/2 × 9.81)) ≈ 1.392 s
The time it takes the diver to move off the end of the diving board to the pool surface = ≈ 1.392 s
2) The horizontal distance, , in meters from the edge of the pool to where the diver enters the water is given as follows;
= L + v₀ ×
= 2 + 2.7× 1.392 ≈ 5.76 m
∴ The horizontal distance from the edge of the pool to where the diver enters the water ≈ 5.76 meters.
