Answer:

The terminal velocity of the diver is 115 m/s = 414 km/hr

Explanation:

At terminal velocity,

Fnet = mg - Fd = 0

Drag force, Fd = cρAv²/2

mg = cρAv²/2

Terminal Velocity of a body falling through a fluid as in a diver falling through air is given by

v = √(2mg/ρcA)

where m = mass of body falling through fluid = 80 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

ρ = density fluid, density of air, as obtained from literature = 1.21 kg/m³

c = coefficient of drag friction of diver falling through air, as obtained from literature = 0.7

A = the area of the diver facing the fluid = 0.14 m²

v = √(2mg/ρcA) = √((2 × 80 × 9.8)/(1.21 × 0.7 × 0.14)) = 115 m/s = 115 × (3600/1000) km/hr = 414 km/hr

A ball is thrown from the top of one building toward a tall building 50 m away. The initial velocity of the ball is 20 m/s at 40
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Ball hit the tall building 50 m away below 10.20 m its original level

Explanation:

Horizontal speed = 20 cos40 = 15.32 m/s

Horizontal displacement = 50 m

Horizontal acceleration = 0 m/s²

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

    50 = 15.32 t + 0.5 x 0 x t²

     t = 3.26 s

Now we need to find how much vertical distance ball travels in 3.26 s.

Initial vertical speed  = 20 sin40 = 12.86 m/s

Time = 3.26 s

Vertical acceleration = -9.81 m/s²

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

    s = 12.86 x 3.26 + 0.5 x -9.81 x 3.26²

    s = -10.20 m

So ball hit the tall building 50 m away below 10.20 m its original level

A 10 Kg dog is running with a speed of 5.0 m/s what is the minimum work required to stop the dog
ra1l [238]

Answer:

25J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the dog  = 10kg

Speed of the dog  = 5m/s

Unknown:

The minimum energy required to stop the dog  = ?

Solution:

The dog is moving with a kinetic energy and to stop the dog, an equal amount of kinetic energy generated must be applied to the dog.

 To find the kinetic energy;

        K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

Now insert the parameters and solve;

      K.E  =  \frac{1}{2}  x 10 x 5  = 25J
