Explanation:
Pascal's principle, also called Pascal's law, in fluid (gas or liquid) mechanics, statement that, in a fluid at rest in a closed container, a pressure change in one part is transmitted without loss to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the container.
Answer:
The size of the force that pushes the wall is 12,250 N.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the wrecking ball, m = 1500 kg
speed of the wrecking ball, v = 3.5 m/s
distance the ball moved the wall, d = 75 cm = 0.75 m
Apply the principle of work-energy theorem;
Kinetic energy of the wrecking ball = work done by the ball on the wall
¹/₂mv² = F x d
where;
F is the size of the force that pushes the wall
¹/₂mv² = F x d
¹/₂ x 1500 x 3.5² = F x 0.75
9187.5 = 0.75F
F = 9187.5 / 0.75
F = 12,250 N
Therefore, the size of the force that pushes the wall is 12,250 N.
<span>The diver is heading downwards at 12 m/s
Ignoring air resistance, the formula for the distance under constant acceleration is
d = VT - 0.5AT^2
where
V = initial velocity
T = time
A = acceleration (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth)
In this problem, the initial velocity is 2.5 m/s and the target distance will be -7.0 m (3.0 m - 10.0 m = -7.0 m)
So let's substitute the known values and solve for T
d = VT - 0.5AT^2
-7 = 2.5T - 0.5*9.8T^2
-7 = 2.5T - 4.9T^2
0 = 2.5T - 4.9T^2 + 7
We now have a quadratic equation with A=-4.9, B=2.5, C=7. Using the quadratic formula, find the roots, which are -0.96705 and 1.477251164.
Now the diver's velocity will be the initial velocity minus the acceleration due to gravity over the time. So
V = 2.5 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * 1.477251164 s
V = 2.5 m/s - 14.47706141 m/s
V = -11.97706141 m/s
So the diver is going down at a velocity of 11.98 m/s
Now the negative root of -0.967047083 is how much earlier the diver would have had to jump at the location of the diving board. And for grins, let's compute how fast he would have had to jump to end up at the same point.
V = 2.5 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (-0.967047083 s)
V = 2.5 m/s - (-9.477061409 m/s)
V = 2.5 m/s + 9.477061409 m/s
V = 11.97706141 m/s
And you get the exact same velocity, except it's the opposite sign.
In any case, the result needs to be rounded to 2 significant figures which is -12 m/s</span>
