A springboard diver intending to do a somersault brings her knees and arms closer to her body during the dive. What effect does

this have?
It makes her fall more slowly.

It decreases her moment of inertia.

It decreases her angular velocity.

It increases her angular momentum.

During the diving when a diver jumps off from platform he brings her knees and arms closer to the body

This is because when diver is in air he don't have any torque about his center of mass which shows that angular momentum of his body will remain constant during his motion in air

Now we can say product of his moment of inertia and his angular speed will remain constant always

So here if we decrease the moment of inertia of the body during our motion then angular speed will increase so that product will remain constant

and this is what the diver use during his diving

so correct answer will be

<u><em>It decreases her moment of inertia.</em></u>

What is the total number of moles of products involved in the following reaction?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

You must first make sure the equation is balanced. This one is. Then, you simply add up the coefficients of each compound on the products side of the equation. When the coefficient is not specified, you can assume it is 1 mole. So, in this equation, there is 1 mole of CaCl₂, 1 mole of CO₂, and 1 mole of H₂O = 3 moles.

The reactant side of the equation also has three moles:

1 mole of CaCO₃ and 2 moles of HCl.

When a potential difference of 10 V is placed across a certain solid cylindrical resistor, the current through it is 2 A. If the
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

New Resistance = 0.5556 ohm

Explanation:

Resistance = resistivity * length /area

Here since resistivity and length are constant, we only need to see how the resistance increases or decreases with change in area.

New Area = pi * (3*D)^2 / 4

Old Area = pi * D^2 / 4

The ratio of new area / old area is :

\frac{New Area}{Old Area} = 9

Since area increases 9 times, and it is inversely proportional to resistance:

Resistance decreases by 9 times.

So, old resistance = Voltage / Current = 10 / 2 = 5 ohm

New Resistance = 5 / 9 = 0.5556 ohm    (decreases by 9 times)
