Missy Diwater the former platform diver for the Ringling Brother's circus had a kinetic energy of 15000 j just to prior to hitti
1 answer:
Missy's velocity is 24.5 m/s
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by
where
m is the mass of the object
v is its velocity
In this problem, we know:
K = 15000 J is Missy's kinetic energy
m = 50 kg is her mass
Solving for v, we find her velocity:

Answer:
468 m
Explanation:
So the building and the point where the laser hit the water surface make a right triangle. Let's call this triangle ABC where A is at the base of the building, B is at the top of the building, and C is where the laser hits the water surface. Similarly, the submarine, the projected submarine on the surface and the point where the laser hit the surface makes a another right triangle CDE. Let D be the submarine and E is the other point.
The length CE is length AE - length AC = 284 - 234 = 50 m
We can calculate the angle ECD:
This is also the angle ACB, so we can find the length AB:
So the height of the building is 468m
