Your answer can be either 92 900 000 or 9.29e+7
Answer:
Explanation:
In this case, law of conservation of energy will be implemented. It states that "the energy of the system remains conserved until or unless some external force act on it. Energy of the system may went through the conversion process like kinetic energy into potential and potential into kinetic energy.But their total always remain the same in conserved systems."
Given data:
Height of tower = 10.0 m
Depth of the pool = 3.00 cm
Mass of person = 61.0 kg
Solution:
Initial energy = Final energy

As the person was at height initially so it has the potential energy only.



Lets find out the magnitude of the force that the water is exerting on the diver.
W =ΔK.E


F = 1992.67 N
Answer:
The effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
Explanation:
First, we can use kinematics to obtain the initial velocity of the performer. Since we know the angle at which he was launched, the horizontal distance and the time in which it's traveled, we can calculate the speed by:

(This is correct because the horizontal motion has acceleration zero). Then:

Now, we can use energy to obtain the spring constant of the firing mechanism. By the conservation of mechanical energy, considering the instant in which the elastic band is at its maximum stretch as t=0, and the instant in which the performer flies free of the bands as final time, we have:

Then, plugging in the given values, we obtain:

Finally, the effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
