A person jumps off a diving board 5.0 m above the water's surface into a deep pool. The person's downward motion stops 2.2 m bel

ow the surface of the water. Calculate the speed of the diver just before striking the water, in m/s (ignore air friction).

Answer:

9.9 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 5+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.9\ m/s

If the body has started from rest then the initial velocity is 0. In order to find the velocity just before hitting the water then the distance at which the downward motion stops is irrelevant.

Hence, the speed of the diver just before striking the water is 9.9 m/s

Answer:

(a) You can tell that have the same strength because they have attracted the same amount of paper clips.

(b) Iron is used in electromagnets because steel retained magnetic properties after the power was turned off, but in the iron, the paper clips dropped off right away.

Q12. How much force is applied on the body when 150 joule of work
ra1l [238]

Force = Work/distance

Force = 150/10

          =  15 Newtons

Force = 15 Newtons

Therefore, 15 newtons of force is applied to the body when 150 joules of work

is done in displacing the body through a distance of 10m in the  direction of the force.

(15 points) (Asap!!)<br>In what two ways can you increase the elastic potential energy of a spring?
adelina 88 [10]
Hello There

Answers: T<span>he elastic potential energy can be increased by: </span>

<span>1) Getting a spring with a higher spring constant</span>

<span>2) Increasing the length at which the spring is compressed. 

Reasons: Getting a stronger spring makes it stronger which equals more energy. While increasing the compression on the spring, increases the stored energy which makes it more powerful when its released

I hope this helps

What is the voltage of the electrochemical cell written as: Cu(s) | Cu2+(aq) || Mg2+(aq) | Mg(s)?
erma4kov [3.2K]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Feel free to ask more questions.  
<span><span>The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is  </span>B.-2.71 V.</span>  
Mg2+(aq) + 2e- -> Mg(s) E=-2.37 V  

Cu2+(aq) + 2e- -> Cu(s) E =+ 0.34 V  

Since Cu is acting as the anode, the equation needs to be reversed.  

Cu(s) -> Cu2+(aq) + 2e- E =- 0.34 V  

Ecell= -2.37 V+ (- 0.34 V) = -2.71 V   <span><span>

</span><span>Hope my answer would be a great help for you. </span> </span> <span> </span>
