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

A train is moving along a horizontal track. A pendulum suspended from the roof makes an angle of 4° with the vertical. If g=10m/
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Train accaleration = 0.70 m/s^2

Explanation:

We have a pendulum (presumably simple in nature) in an accelerating train. As the train accelerates, the pendulum is going move in the opposite direction due to inertia. The force which causes this movement has the same accaleration as that of the train. This is the basis for the problem.

Start by setting up a free body diagram of all the forces in play: The gravitational force on the pendulum (mg), the force caused by the pendulum's inertial resistance to the train(F_i), and the resulting force of tension caused by the other two forces (F_r).

Next, set up your sum of forces equations/relationships. Note that the sum of vertical forces (y-direction) balance out and equal 0. While the horizontal forces add up to the total mass of the pendulum times it's accaleration; which, again, equals the train's accaleration.

After doing this, I would isolate the resulting force in the sum of vertical forces, substitute it into the horizontal force equation, and solve for the acceleration. The problem should reduce to show that the acceleration is proportional to the gravity times the tangent of the angle it makes.

I've attached my work, comment with any questions.

Side note: If you take this end result and solve for the angle, you'll see that no matter how fast the train accelerates, the pendulum will never reach a full 90°!

Suppose that you can throw a projectile at a large enough v0 so that it can hit a target a distance R downrange. Given that you
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Theta1 = 12° and theta2 = 168°

The solution procedure can be found in the attachment below.

Explanation:

The Range is the horizontal distance traveled by a projectile. This diatance is given mathematically by Vo cos(theta) t. Where t is the total time of flight of the projectile in air. It is the time taken for the projectile to go from starting point to finish point. This solution assumes the projectile finishes uts motion on the same horizontal level as the starting point and as a result the vertical displacement is zero (no change in height).

In the solution as can be found below, the expression to calculate the range for any launch angle theta was first derived and then the required angles calculated from the equation by substituting the values of the the given quantities.

The atom in the diagram has a neutral charge how many protons does it have
Olegator [25]

Explanation:

This should be of help:

An atom is made up of three subatomic particles:

  • Protons are the positively charged particles.
  • Electrons are the negatively charged particles.
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges.

A neutral atom is an atom that has not lost or gained any amount of electrons.

In a neutral atom;

                the number of protons and electrons are the same

 Usually atoms are designated this way:

                                                  ᵃₙX

  where X is the symbol of the atom

               a is the mass number of the atom

                n is the atomic number of the atom

 The mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

        Atomic number = number of protons

Note; atomic number is the same as the number protons and the number of electrons in a neutral atom.

A ball of mass 0.500 kg is carefully balanced on a shelf that is 2.70 m above the ground. What is its gravitational potential en
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of the ball is 13.23 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the ball, m = 0.5 kg

height of the shelf, h = 2.7 m

The gravitational potential energy is given by;

P.E = mgh

where;

m is mass of the ball

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h is height of the ball

Substitute the givens and solve for gravitational potential energy;

PE = (0.5 x 9.8 x 2.7)

P.E = 13.23 J

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of the ball is 13.23 J.
