Answer:

(a)  13.795 m/s.

(b) -3140.28 N.

Explanation:

(a) Using newton's  equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, s = height of the tower, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: s = 9.7 m, u = 0 m/s ( jump from a height), g = 9.81 m/s².

Substitute into equation 1

v² = 0² + 2×9.81×9.7

v² = 190.314

v = √(190.314)

v = 13.795 m/s.

Hence the velocity of the driver when he hits the water = 13.795 m/s.

(b)

F = ma.................... Equation 2

Where F = force exerted on the diver, m = mass of the diver, a = acceleration of the diver below the water surface.

Also using

v² = u² + 2as ............ Equation 3

Note: At the point when the diver enters the water, u = 13.795 m/s, and at the point when the diver comes to a complete stop, v = 0 m/s

Given: s = 2.0 m, u = 13.795 m/s, v = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 3

0² = 13.795²+2(2a)

0 = 190.30203 + 4a

-4a = 190.30203

a = 190.30203/-4

a = -47.58 m/s²

Also given: m = 66 kg,

Substitute into equation 3

F = (-47.58)(66)

F = -3140.28

Note: The Force is negative because it act against the motion of the diver.

Hence the net force exerted on the diver while in the water = -3140.28 N.

alex41 [277]
Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.  
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH 
V^2 = 2GH 
V = âš2GH 
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)  
V = âš 6370
 V = 79.81 m/s

Tarik winds a small paper tube uniformly with 183 turns 183 turns of thin wire to form a solenoid. The tube's diameter is 9.49 m
Rufina [12.5K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

143μH

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The inductance (L) of a coil wire (e.g solenoid) is given by;

L = μ₀N²A / l                 --------------(i)

Where;

l = the length of the solenoid

A = cross-sectional area of the solenoid

N= number of turns of the solenoid

μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ N/A²

<em>From the question;</em>

N = 183 turns

l = 2.09cm = 0.0209m

diameter, d = 9.49mm = 0.00949m

<em>But;</em>

A = π d² / 4                     [Take π = 3.142 and substitute d = 0.00949m]

A = 3.142 x 0.00949² / 4

A = 7.1 x 10⁻⁵m²

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

L = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 183² x 7.1 x 10⁻⁵ / 0.0209           [Take π = 3.142]

L = 4(3.142) x 10⁻⁷ x 183² x 7.1 x 10⁻⁵ / 0.0209

L = 143 x 10⁻⁶ H

L = 143 μH

Therefore the inductance in microhenrys of the Tarik's solenoid is 143
