A falling object (directly downward) is slowed down by air resistance. In turn it would take longer to fall.

Terry can ride 30 miles in 2 hours. If his riding speed is

Anni [7]

Answer: 20.4 miles

Explanation:

Here we need to use the equation:

Velocity = Distance/Time.

Initially we have that he can travel 30 miles in 2 hours, so the velocity is:

V = 30mi/2h = 15mph

Now, we reduce the velocity by 3 mph, so the new velocity is 15mph - 3 mph = 12mph.

Now we want to know the distance traveled in 1.7 hours with this velocity, this is.

Velocity*Time = Distance

12mi/h*1.7h = 20.4 miles

A person jumps off a diving board 5.0 m above the water's surface into a deep pool. The person's downward motion stops 2.2 m bel

shutvik [7]

Answer:

9.9 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 5+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.9\ m/s$

If the body has started from rest then the initial velocity is 0. In order to find the velocity just before hitting the water then the distance at which the downward motion stops is irrelevant.

Hence, the speed of the diver just before striking the water is 9.9 m/s
