Answer:

The answer cannot be determined.

Explanation:

The energy of the diver when he hits the pool will be equal to its potential energy $mgh$ , and for the temperature of the pool to rise up, this energy has to be converted into the heat energy of the pool.

The change in temperature ${\Delta}T$ then will be

${\Delta}T=\frac{{\Delta}Q}{mc} .$

Where m is the mass of water in the pool, c is the specific heat capacity of water, and ${\Delta}Q$ is the added heat which in this case is the energy of the diver.

Since we do not know the mass of the water in the pool, we cannot make this calculation.

A block is on a frictionless table, on earth. The block accelerates at 7.5 m/s when a 70 N horizontal force is applied to it. Th

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The weight of the block on the moon is 15 kg.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The acceleration of the block, a = 7.5 m/s²

Force applied to the box, F = 70 N

The mass of the block will be, $m=\dfrac{F}{a}$

$m=\dfrac{70\ N}{7.5\ m/s^2}$

m = 9.34 kg

The block and table are set up on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon is 1.62 m/s². The mass of the object remains the same. It weight W is given by :

$W=m\times g$

$W=9.34\ kg\times 1.62\ m/s^2$

W = 15.13 N

W = 15 N

So, the weight of the block on the moon is 15 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball of mass 0.120 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.820 m. W

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.0752 kgm/s

Explanation:

Considering when the drop was dropped from rest from a height,

mass of the ball, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = - 1.25 m

the initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh$

Substituting the values,

$V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(-1.25 m)$

$V^{2} = 24.5 m/s$

$V = \sqrt{24.5} \ m/s$

$V = 4.95 \ m/s$

V = ± 4.95 m/s

V = - 4.95 m/s

Since the ball is moving downward, the final velocity of the ball when it hits the floor is V = - 4.95 m/s

Considering when the ball rebounds from the floor,

assume the mass of the ball still remain, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = 0.820 m

the final velocity, v = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh$

Substituting the values,

$0^{2} = U^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(0.820 m)$

$0 = U^{2} - 16.072 m/s$

$U^{2} = 16.072 m/s$

$U = \sqrt{16.072} \ m/s$

U = ± 4.01 m/s

U = + 4.01 m/s

Since the ball is moving upward, the initial velocity of the ball from the bounce from the floor is U = + 4.01 m/s

From Newton's second law of motion, applied force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum.

$F = \frac{mv - mu}{t}$

$F.t = m(v - u)$

⇒ Impulse = Change in momentum

To calculate the impulse, the moment before the ball hits the ground will be the initial momentum while the moment the ball rebounces will be the final velocity,

∴ F.t = 0.120 kg(4.01 m/s - (-4.95 m/s) )

F.t = 0.120 kg(4.01 m/s + 4.95 m/s) )

F.t = 0.120 kg × 8.96 m/s

Impulse = 1.0752 kgm/s

The impulse given to the ball by the floor is 1.0752 kgm/s

6, P 14 are consecutive terms in an AP<br>find the value of P.

xenn [34]

In an arithmetic progression, consecutive terms differ by the same value.

So, we have

$P-6 = 14-P$

which reflects the fact that the difference between P and 6 must be the same than the one between P and 14.

The equation solves to

$2P=20\iff P=10$

And in fact, if you start with

$6, 10, 14$

every pair of consecutive terms differ by 4.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

he factor for the temporal part 1.296 107 s² = h²

m / s² = 12960 km / h²

Explanation:

This is a unit conversion exercise.

In the unit conversion, the size of the object is not changed, only the value with respect to which it is measured is changed, for this reason in the conversion the amount that is in parentheses must be worth one.

In this case, it is requested to convert a measure km/h²

Unfortunately, it is not clearly indicated what measure it is, but the most used unit in physics is m / s² , which is a measure of acceleration. Let's cut this down

the factor for the distance is 1000 m = 1 km

the factor for time is 3600 s = 1 h

let's make the conversion

m / s² (1km / 1000 m) (3600 s / 1h)²

note that as time is squared the conversion factor is also squared

m / s² = 12960 km / h²

the factor for the temporal part 1.29 107 s² = h²
