Answer:

559.5 N

Explanation:

Applying,

v² = u²+2gs............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity,

From the question,

Given: s = 5.10 m, u = 0 m/s ( from rest)

Constant: 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

v² = 0²+2×9.8×5.1

v² = 99.96

v = √(99.96)

v = 9.99 m/s

As the diver eneters the water,

u = 9.99 m/s, v = 0 m/s

Given: t = 1.34 s

Apply

a = (v-u)/t

a = 9.99/1.34

a = -7.46 m/s²

F = ma.............. Equation 2

Where F = force, m = mass

Given: m = 75 kg, a = -7.46 m/s²,

F = 75(-7.46)

F = -559.5 N

Hence the average force exerted on the diver is 559.5 N

Mary starts at the edge of a circular platform that is slowly rotating on a frictionless axle. She then walks towards the opposi
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The motion of Mary along the circular path is a centripetal.

As Mary moves from one edge of the circular platform to the other edge, she is covering a distance which is the radius of the circular path at a velocity.

According to the relationship

w = v/r where

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

v is the linear velocity

Initially, before Mary starts, her linear speed is zero and her angular velocity is also zero. As she move towards the opposite edge, she is covering a distance of radius r. According to the formula, increase in radius will leads to decrease in her angular velocity and vice versa. As Mary starts moving towards the centre of the circular path, her angular velocity increases, at the centre of the platform, her angular velocity is at maximum at this point. As she moves further from the center to the other edge, her angular velocity decreases due to increase in distance covered across the circular path.

A 65-kg person stands on a scale in a moving elevator while holding a 5.0 kg mass suspended from a massless spring with spring c
disa [49]

Answer:

The question is incomplete. However, I believe, it is asking for the acceleration of the elevator. This is 3.16 m/s².

Explanation:

By Hooke's law, F = ke

F is the force on a spring, k is the spring constant and e is the extension or compression.

From the question,

F = (1.08\text{ kN/m}) \times (6.0 \times 10^{-2}\text{ m}) = 64.8 \text{ N}

This is the force on the mass suspended on the spring. Its acceleration, a, is given by

F = ma

a = \dfrac{F}{m}

a = \dfrac{64.8 \text{ N}}{5\text{ kg}} = 12.96\text{ m/s}^2

This acceleration is more than the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s². Hence the elevator must be moving up with an acceleration of

12.96 - 9.8 m/s² = 3.16 m/s²
