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.

To cross the river a swimmer chooses the direction minimizing the amount of time spent in the water. The swimmer swims at a cons
Lynna [10]

Answer:

304 meters downstream

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The speed of the swimmer = 2.00 m/s

The width of the river = 73.0 m

The speed of the river = 8.00 m/s

Therefore;

The direction of the swimmer's resultant velocity = tan⁻¹(8/2) ≈ 75.96° downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 4 × 73 = 304 m downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 304 m downstream

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.
Alina [70]

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy. It is a true statement .

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object possesses due to its motion. It is basically the energy of mass in motion. Kinetic energy can never be negative and it is a scalar quantity i.e. it provides only the magnitude and not the direction.

According to law of conservation of mechanical energy change in potential energy is equal and opposite to the change in the kinetic energy.

According to the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, The total mechanical energy of a system is conserved i.e., the energy can neither be created nor be destroyed; it can only be internally converted from one form to another if the forces doing work on the system are conservative in nature.

since, potential energy is stored in the form of work done

Work done = Fs cos (theta)

If force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion

theta =   90 °

cos (90 ) = 0

Work done  = 0

since , there is no work done , hence kinetic energy will not change

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

it will take him 200secs to run to the shops

(btw 200 seconds is 3minutes and 20secs)

Explanation:

distance = speed x time

time = distance / speed

1200 ÷ 6 = 200

time = 200seconds

hope this helps

*FRICTIONAL FORCE* in the opposite direction of the way Bobby is pushing.
Friction is a force which varies but it is always opposing the direction of motion.

*APPLIED FORCE* is the force that Bobby is pushing with.
An applied force is literally the force that is applied to an object.

*WEIGHT FORCE* is also called the force of gravity. It is straight downward.
It is the weight of the object multiplied by the force of gravity. If the TV weighed 100kg, acceleration is always 9.81 m/s^2, so the weight force would be 981 N.

*NORMAL FORCE* is the force which is holding the TV above ground. The ground supplies a force upward against the TV.
Normal force is just the force that prevents the TV from falling through the ground. We don't normally realize it in our everyday life, but the floor must hold everything up because gravity is always "pushing" against it.
