A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.00 m/s, and
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s

Explanation: let the following

From the first equation of linear motion

V = u+at..........1

parameters be represented as :

t = Time taken

v = Final velocity

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

u = Initial velocity = 4 m/s

s = Displacement

V = 0

Substitute the values into equation 1

0 = 4-9.8(t)

-4 = -9.8t

t = 4/9.8

t = 0.408s

From : s = ut+1/2at^2.........2

S = 4×0.408+0.5(-9.8)×0.408^2

S= 1.632-4.9(0.166)

S = 1.632-0.815

S = 0.817m

Her highest height above the board is 0.817 m

Total height she would fall is 0.817+1.90 = 2.717 m

From equation 2

s = ut+1/2at^2

2.717 m = 0t+0.5(9.8)t^2

2.717 m = 0+4.9t^2

2.717 m = 4.9t^2

2.717/4.9 = t^2

0.554 =t^2

t =√0.554

t = 0.744s

Hence, her feet were in the air for 0.744+0.408seconds

= 1.152s

Also recall from equation 1

V= u+at

V = 0+9.8(0.744)

V = 7.29m/s

Hence, the velocity when she hits the water is 7.29m/s

Finally,

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s

The gravitational force of a star on an orbiting planet 1 is f1. planet 2, which is three times as massive as planet 1 and orbit
vovikov84 [41]

Gravitational force is given by, F= G\frac{mM}{R^{2}}

Where, m and M are the masses of the objects, R is the distance between them and G gravitational constant.

Gravitational force of the star on planet 1, F_{1}= G\frac{m_{1}M}{R^{2}}

Gravitational force of the star on planet 2, F_{2}= G\frac{3m_{1}M}{(3R)^{2}}

Ratio, \frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}= \frac{\frac{Gm_{1}M}{R^{2}}}{\frac{G3m_{1}M}{(3R)^{2}}}

\frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}=  \frac{3}{1}

Therefore, the gravitational force of the star on the planet 1 is three times that on planet 2.
