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

A uniform rod of length L is pivoted at L/4 from one end. It is pulled to one side through a very small angle and allowed to osc
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

T= 4.24sec

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula below to calculate.

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

Where T is period

           L is length of rod

       g is acceleration due to gravity =     9.8m/s^{2}

From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this L_{O}

L_{O} = 3/4 * 5.95m

        = 4.4625m

thus   T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_{O} }{g} }

          T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4.4625 }{9.8} }

          T= 4.24sec
