Answer:
C) When wind direction or wind speed changes with altitude :)
Explanation:
I assume the block plows into the bank of sand with a velocity of 6 m/s and comes to a stop in 2 s.
The velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is 5.1 m/s.
<h3>
What is the initial velocity of the jumper?</h3>
The initial velocity of the jumper or the velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below.
Kinetic energy of the jumper at the floor = Potential energy of the jumper at the maximum height
¹/₂mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
where;
- v is the initial velocity of the jumper on the floor
- h is the maximum height reached by the jumper
- g is acceleration due to gravity
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.3)
v = 5.1 m/s
