Answer:

<h2>3.00m high</h2>

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy of the diver is expressed mathematically as

P = mgh

m = mass of the diver (in kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity (in m/s²)

h = the height of the diver above the water surface.

Given m = 85.0kg, g = 9,8m/s² and P = 2.50x10³ Joules, wecan determine how high the diver is above the water surface bu substituting the given values into the formula;

h = P/mg

h = 2.50x10³/85*9.8

h = 2500/833

h ≈ 3.00m

The diver is 3.00m above the water surface.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

60 N

Explanation:

This is just Newton's Second Law

F = m*a

F = ?

m = 12 kg
