A diver runs horizontally with a speed of 1.20 m/s off a platform that is 10.0 m above the water. What is his speed just before

striking the water

DENIUS [597]3 years ago

Answer:

14.05m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Horizontal speed of diver=v_x=1.2m/s

Distance, y=-10 m

It is taken as negative because the diver goes downward.

There is no air resistance therefore, there is  acceleration due to gravity .

We know that

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Initial vertical velocity, u_y=0

v^2-u^2=2as

Using the formula

v^2_y-0=2\times (-9.8)(-10)

v_y=\sqrt{2(-9.8)(-10)}

v_y=14 m/s

v=\sqrt{v^2_x+v^2_y}

Using the formula

v=\sqrt{(1.2)^2+(14)^2}=14.05m/s

Hence, the speed of diver before just striking the water=14.05m/s

Si un ciclista se mueve a una velocidad de 5 m/s y acelera 1 m/s2, a los 10 segundos su velocidad será
MrRa [10]

Answer:

A los 10 segundos su velocidad será 15 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

La aceleración de un objeto es una magnitud que indica cómo cambia la velocidad del objeto en una unidad de tiempo.

En otras palabras, la aceleración relaciona los cambios de la velocidad con el tiempo en el que se producen, es decir que mide cómo de rápidos son los cambios de velocidad:

  • Una aceleración grande significa que la velocidad cambia rápidamente.
  • Una aceleración pequeña significa que la velocidad cambia lentamente.
  • Una aceleración cero significa que la velocidad no cambia.

La aceleración "a" puede ser calculada mediante la expresión:

a=\frac{vfinal - vinicial}{tiempo}

En este caso:

  • a= 1 \frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • vfinal= ?
  • vinicial= 5 \frac{m}{s}
  • tiempo= 10 s

Reemplazando:

1\frac{m}{s^{2} }=\frac{vfinal - 5\frac{m}{s} }{10 s}

Resolviendo se obtiene:

1 \frac{m}{s^{2} } *10 s= vfinal - 5 \frac{m}{s}

10 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal - 5 \frac{m}{s}

10 \frac{m}{s} + 5 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal

15 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal

<u><em>A los 10 segundos su velocidad será 15 </em></u>\frac{m}{s}<u><em></em></u>

A 0.001kg bullet is fired with a velocity of 800m/s into a soft wood of mass 1kg resting on a smooth surface. Find the final vel
V125BC [204]

The final velocity of the bullet+block is 0.799 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, the total momentum of the bullet-block system must be conserved before and after the collision.

Mathematically, we can write:

mu+MU=(m+M)v

where

m = 0.001 kg is the mass of the bullet

u = 800 m/s is the initial velocity of the bullet

M = 1 kg is the mass of the block

U = 0 is the initial velocity of the block (initially at rest)

v is the final combined velocity of the bullet and the block

Solving the equation for v, we  find the final velocity:

v=\frac{mu}{m+M}=\frac{(0.001)(800)}{0.001+1}=0.799 m/s

A sphere of radius R contains charge Q spread uniformly throughout its volume. Find an expression for the electrostatic energy c
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}

Explanation:

Let the sphere is uniformly charge to radius "r" and due to this charged sphere the electric potential on its surface is given as

V = \frac{kq}{r}

now we can say that

q = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3} (\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3)

q = \frac{Qr^3}{R^3}

now electric potential is given as

V = \frac{k\frac{Qr^3}{R^3}}{r}

V = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3}

now work done to bring a small charge from infinite to the surface of this sphere is given as

dW = V dq

dW = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} dq

here we know that

dq = \frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3}

now the total energy of the sphere is given as

E = \int dW

E = \int_0^R  \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} (\frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3})

E = \frac{3kQ^2}{R^6} (\frac{R^5}{5} - 0)

E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}
