Pushing, pulling is the answer
Answer:
Explanation:
Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.
Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:
Where 
is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when 
is equal to one, solving for r:
Answer:
12.7m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of diver = 77kg
Height of jump = 8.18m
Unknown:
Final velocity = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we apply the motion equation below:
v² = u² + 2gH
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
g is the acceleration due to gravity
H is the height
Now insert the parameters and solve;
v² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x 8.18
v = 12.7m/s
