A 50.1 kg diver steps off a diving board and drops straight down into the water. The water provides an average net force of resi

stance of 1598 N to the diver’s fall. If the diver comes to rest 5.2 m below the water’s surface, what is the total distance between the diving board and the diver’s stopping point underwater? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s 2. Answer in units of m.

Answer:

The total distance is 16.9 m

Explanation:

We understand work in physics as certain force exerted through certain distance. To reach that point below the water, the work done by the diver must be equal to the work done by the water's force of resistance. Therefore, we determine both work expressions and we solve the equation for the diver distance, which is the total distance between the diving board and the stopping point underwater.

W_{d}: work done by diver\\W_{R}: work due the force of resistance\\W_{d} = W_{R}\\F_{d}\times d_{d}=F_R \times d_{R}\\d_{d}= \frac{F_R \times d_R}{F_d}= \frac{F_R \times d_R}{m_d \times g}= \frac {1598 N \times 5.2 m}{50.1 kg \times 9.81 m/s^2}\\d_{d}= 16. 91 m

a transmission-line cable, of length 3 km, consists of 19 strands of identical copper conductors, each 1.5 mm in diameter. becau
Ivan

the resistance of the cable is 582.9 ohms

we are given the length of the cable which is  3 km,  of  1.5 mm in, the diameter  and resistivity of copper which is 1.72 m

The formula  we are referring to for calculating the resistance of the  cable is

R = ρl/A.

As there are 19 strands of copper conductors, so the resistance will be

R = 19( ρl/A)

Here  ρ is the resisitivity =  1.72 , l is the length  = 3(1+0.05)*10³3= 3150 m

A=pie/4(1.5 x 10⁻³)^2 =1.766 x 10⁻⁶ =1.766 x 10^-6

Substituting the values in the formula  we  get

R = 19 ( 1.72*3150 )/1.766 x 10⁻⁶

 = 582.9 ohm

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

3.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the yo-yo.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and tension force T pulling up 10° from the vertical.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos 10° − mg = 0

T cos 10° = mg

T = mg / cos 10°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin 10° = ma

mg tan 10° = ma

g tan 10° = a

a = 1.73 m/s²

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and air resistance D pushing up.  At terminal velocity, the acceleration is 0.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

½ ρₐ v² C A = ρᵢ V g

½ ρₐ v² C (πr²) = ρᵢ (4/3 πr³) g

3 ρₐ v² C = 8 ρᵢ r g

r = 3 ρₐ v² C / (8 ρᵢ g)

r = 3 (1.3 kg/m³) (100 m/s)² (0.47) / (8 (7874 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²))

r = 0.030 m

r = 3.0 cm
