Answer: Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (8 kg) (4 m/s)² =

 

                                 (4 kg) (16 m²/s²) =

                                  64  (kg-m/s²) (m) = 64 newton-m = 64 joules

  (about 17.6 pounds)

evablogger [386]

According to the plot, the positions at time <em>t</em> = 0 s and <em>t</em> = 19 s are -1 m and -2 m, respectively. So the average velocity for the 19-s interval is

v_{\rm ave} = \dfrac{-2\,\mathrm m - (-1\,\mathrm m)}{19\,\mathrm s} = -\dfrac1{19}\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\approx \boxed{-0.05\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}

¿por qué los buzos, cuando emergen con urgencia, deben exhalar continuamente durante el ascenso?
natka813 [3]
Exhaling allows excess volume to escape from the lungs, and by exhaling at a suitable rate the diver can continue exhaling throughout the ascent and still have air in his or her lungs at the surface. If the diver fails to exhale during the ascent, lung over-expansion injury is likely to occur.
