Answer:

F = 53153.36[N]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first use the principle of conservation of energy which is transformed from potential energy to kinetic, in this way we can determine the velocity at which the person enters the water.

E_{pot}=E_{kin}\\m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

where:

m = mass = 100 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 9 [m]

v = velocity [m/s]

Now replacing we can determinate the velocity.

v^{2}=2*g*h\\v=\sqrt{2*g*h}\\v=\sqrt{2*9.81*9}\\v = 13.28[m/s]

Then we can calculate the momentum which can be calculated as the product of force by time, this momentum is also equal to the product of mass by velocity.

P=m*v\\and\\P =F*t\\F*t=m*v

Now replacing:

F = impact force [N]

t = time = 0.025 [s]

m = 100 [kg]

v = velocity = 13.28 [m/s]

F*0.025=100*13.28\\F=53153.36[N]

The pressure of a sample of gas is measured as 49 torrent. Convert this to atmosphere ​
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

P = 0.0644 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

The pressure of a sample of gas is measured as 49 torr.

We need to convert this temperature to atmosphere.

The relation between torr and atmosphere is as follow :

1 atm = 760 torr

1 torr = (1/760) atm

49 torr = (49/760) atm

= 0.0644 atm

Hence, the presssure of the sample of gas is equal to 0.0644 atm.

Why would you expect the speed of light to be slightly less in the atmosphere then in a vacuum?
azamat

The speed of light to be slightly less in atmosphere then in vacuum because of absorption and re-emission of light by the atmospheric molecules occurred when light travels through a material

<u>Explanation:</u>

When light passes through atmosphere, it interacts or transmits through the transparent molecules in atmosphere. In this process of transmission through atmosphere, the light will be getting absorbed by them and some will get re-emitted or refracted depending upon wavelength.

But in vacuum the absence of any kind of particles will lead to no interaction and no energy loss, thus the speed of the light will be same in vacuum while due to interactions with molecules of atmosphere, there speed will be slightly less compared to in vacuum.
