Answer: meter per second

Explanation: meter per second

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the meter per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometer per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.

A diver rises quickly to the surface from a 5.0 m depth. If she did not exhale the gas from her lunds before rising, by what fac

Inessa [10]

Answer:

1.5 times

Explanation:

$h$ = depth of the diver initially = 5 m

$\rho$ = density of seawater = 1030 kg m⁻³

$P_{i}$ = Initial pressure at the depth

$P_{f}$ = final pressure after rising = 101325 Pa

Initial pressure at the depth is given as

$P_{i} = P_{f} + \rho gh\\P_{i} = 101325 + (1030) (9.8) (5)\\P_{i} = 151795 Pa$

$V_{i}$ = Initial volume at the depth

$V_{f}$ = Final volume after rising

Since the temperature remains constant, we have

$P_{f} V_{f} = P_{i} V_{i}\\(101325) V_{f} = (151795) V_{i}\\V_{f} = 1.5 V_{i}$

An 80kg parachutist jumps out of an airplane. Neglecting air friction, how fast will he be going after a 10 second free fall?

olganol [36]

If he is jumping you are adding force which means that you will be falling twice as fast

A ball strikes a wall. It exerts a force of 10 N to the left against the wall and bounces off. What force does the wall exert on

Galina-37 [17]

The wall exerts a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction. So the force by the wall is 10 N to the right.

Now explore friction force. Set the piece of plastic or wood on the table and push it steadily across the tabletop using your fi

nydimaria [60]

Answer: If there is a higher friction, the opposition force is higher so that it can reduce our speed. So, a factor that affects friction is the roughness or smoothness of the surface of the object. In comparison of the table with the fabric, the fabric will have a more opposition force. As the surface of the fabric is usually rougher than the surface of a smooth table. As there is more friction on a fabric, we will feel more opposition force on our finger tip.
