A 65.0-kg woman steps off a 10.0-m diving platform and drops straight down into the water. 1) If she reaches a depth of 3.20 m,

what is the average resistance force exerted on her by the water? Ignore any effects due to air resistance. (Express your answer to three significant figures in kN)

Answer:

F=2627.6N

Explanation:

The work done by this resistive force while traveling a distance <em>d</em> underwater would be:

W=F.d=-Fd

where the minus sign appears because the force is upwards and the displacement downwards.

This work is equal to the change of mechanical energy. At the diving plataform and underwater, when she stops moving, the woman has no kinetic energy, so all can be written in terms of her total change of gravitational potential energy:

W=\Delta E=U_f-U_i=mgh_f-mgh_i=mg(h_f-h_i)

Putting all together:

F=-\frac{W}{d}=-\frac{mg(h_f-h_i)}{d}=-\frac{(65kg)(9.8m/s^2)(-3.2m-10m)}{3.2m}=2627.6N

In what way is a touch screen similar to a CCD? In what way is it different?
kupik [55]
A charge-coupled device (CCD) is a light-sensitive integrated circuit that captures images by converting photons to electrons.

A touch screen is a computer display screen that is also an input device. The screens are sensitive to pressure; a user interacts with the computer by touching pictures or words on the screen.

The similarity is the sensitivity.
The difference is CCD scans or ‘takes images’, whereas touch-screen is where a user interacts with the software.

Hope this helps!

Zero field spot for opposite unequal charges
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The zero field location has to be on the line running between the two point charges because that's the only place where the field vectors could point in exactly opposite directions. It can't be between the two opposite charges because there the field vectors from both charges point toward the negative charge.

An astronaut sings a song upon arriving on Planet Mongo. When her vocal cord produces an oscillation at 600 Hertz, she detects t
Paraphin [41]

The speed of sound on planet is 210 m/s.

<h3>What is Oscillation?</h3>

Oscillation is the repeating or periodic change of a quantity around a central value or between two or more states, often in time. Alternating current and a swinging pendulum are two common examples of oscillation.

There are 3 main types of Oscillation –

  • Free
  • damped
  • forced oscillation

f = frequency = 600 Hz

lambda = wavelength = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Now,

V = speed = f × lambda = 210 m/s

Hence, speed of sound on planet is 210 m/s.

A container with a mass of 5 kg is lifted to a height of 8m. How much work done by the gravitional force​
anzhelika [568]

work done by gravitational force = mass × g × height

= mgh

= 5 × 10 × 8 N

<h3>= 400 N</h3>
