When the diver reaches maximum height, the upward velocity will be zero.

We shall use the formula
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh
where 
v = 0 (velocity at maximum height)
u = 1.2 m/s, intial upward velocity
g = -9.8 m/s^2, gravitational acceleration (downward)
h = maximum height attained above the diving board.

Therefore
0 = 1.2^2 - 2*9.8*h
h = 1.2^2/(2*9.8) = 0.0735 m

Answer: 0.074 m (nearest thousandth)

A bus moving along a level road increases its speed from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 15.0s. What is the car's acceleration?​
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

initial velocity U = 20m/s

Final velocity V = 35m/s

time = 15.0 secs

change in velocity = 35 - 15

= 20m/s

acceleration a = change in velocity/time V/t

a = (35-20)/15

a= 15/15

Hence, your acceleration is 1m/s^2

According to the scientific definition, which is not an example of work?
attashe74 [19]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "B.pushing against a car without moving it." According to the scientific definition, pushing against a car without moving it is not an example of work. Lifting a book off a desk and <span>pulling socks out of the drye are samples of work.</span>

A net force of 3000 N is accelerating a 1200 kg elevator upward. If the elevator starts from rest, how long will it take to trav
alexdok [17]

F = net force acting on the elevator in upward direction = 3000 N

m = mass of the elevator = 1200 kg

a = acceleration of the elevator = ?

Acceleration of the elevator is given as

a = F/m

a = 3000/1200

a = 2.5 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the elevator = 0 m/s

Y = displacement of the elevator = 15 m

t = time taken

Using the kinematics equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

15 = (0) t + (0.5) (2.5) t²

t = 3.5 sec
