A 72 kg swimmer dives horizontally off a raft floating in a lake. The diver's speed immediately after leaving the raft is 3.8 m/

s. If the time interval of the interaction between the diver and the raft is 0.25 s, what is the magnitude of the average horizontal force by diver on the raft?

Answer:

F = 1094.4 N

Explanation:

From impulse - momentum theorem, we now that ;

Impulse = momentum

Where;

Formula for impulse = force (F) × time(t)

Momentum = mass(m) × velocity(v)

Now, we are given;

Mass of swimmer; m = 72 kg

Speed; v = 3.8 m/s

Time; t = 0.25 s

Thus;

F × t = mv

F = mv/t

F = (72 × 3.8)/0.25

F = 1094.4 N

This value of force is the magnitude of the average horizontal force by diver on the raft.

The torque of a system whose force is 30n and length is 2m
Helen [10]
<h2>Answer </h2>

The torque is 60 Nm.

<u>Explanation</u>

The torque of a system whose force is 30 N and the length is 2 m, then the torque is 60 Nm. The formula for torque is ( Force ) x ( moment arm ). Hence by putting values in the formula, torque = ( 30 N ) ( 2 m) which is equal to 60 Nm. The unit for torque is newton-meter (Nm). Torque is the turning effect or the force which tends to move the object in a circle and tends to rotate around a circle. Torque is a vector quantity.

The SI base units for torque is kg ⋅ m 2 ⋅ s − 2.
