Answer:

5000 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of Danny Diver, F = 500 N

He steps off a diving board 10 m above the water

We need to find the kinetic energy of the water with which it hits. Let its is K. It is given by :

E = mgh

Where g is acceleration due to gravity

$E=500\ N\times 10\ m\\\\=5000\ J$

So, he hits the water with kinetic energy of 5000 J.

How many normal modes of oscillation or natural frequencies does each if the following have: (

Vadim26 [7]

Each of these systems has exactly one degree of freedom and hence only one natural frequency obtained by solving the differential equation describing the respective motions. For the case of the simple pendulum of length L the governing differential equation is d^2x/dt^2 = - gx/L with the natural frequency f = 1/(2π) √(g/L). For the mass-spring system the governing differential equation is m d^2x/dt^2 = - kx (k is the spring constant) with the natural frequency ω = √(k/m). Note that the normal modes are also called resonant modes; the Wikipedia article below solves the problem for a system of two masses and two springs to obtain two normal modes of oscillation.

The components of vector A are Ax = +2.2 and Ay = -6.9 , and the components of vector B are given are Bx = -6.1 and By = -2.2. W

Zina [86]

For simplicity, let's call vector B-A vector C Then C is
Cx = (-6.1 - 2.2)
Cy = (-2.2 - (-6.9)) Or,
Cx = -8.3 Cy = 4.7
The magnitude is found with the Pythagorean theorem
||C|| = √(-8.3² + 4.7²) = 9.538

Increase the accurancy of a scientific experiment

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The best way to increase the accuracy of a scientific experiment is to have a detailed plan of action for conducting the experiment. You should also repeat the experiment several times to ensure that you get the same result(s) consistently.

A 0.40-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle having a radius of 1.8 m. At an instant when the stri

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as
