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.

Which of the following statements about language is true?

ohaa [14]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Language is defined as a medium through which a person can deliver its thoughts, ideas, or perceptions to one or more individuals.

For example, Leslie is feeling sad and that is why she is crying. Therefore, listening a cry sound her friend sitting in the next room came immediately to console her.

Hence, sound of crying is also a sign of language that tells Leslie is sad about something.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement languages use spoken sounds, written words, and signs to represent ideas and events, is true about language.

Captain John Stapp is often referred to as the "fastest man on Earth." In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Stapp ran the U.S. Air

Answer:

The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.

Explanation:

The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation: $v_f=v_0+a*t$ , where $v_f$ is the final velocity, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $a$ the acceleration, and $t$ is the time during such acceleration is applied.

Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case: $t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}=\frac{0\frac{m}{s}-282\frac{m}{s} }{-201\frac{m}{s^2} }=1.40s$ , where $v_f=0\frac{m}{s}$ because the sled is totally stopped, $v_0=282\frac{m}{s}$ is the velocity of the sled before braking and, $a=-201\frac{m}{s^2}$ is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.

In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration: $x_f-x_0=v_0*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2$ , where $x_f-x_0$ is the distance traveled, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $t$ the time of the process and, $a$ is the acceleration of the process.

Then for this case the relationship becomes: $x_f-x_0=282\frac{m}{s} *1.40s+\frac{1}{2}(-201\frac{m}{s})*(1.40s)^2=94.22m$ .

<u>Note that the acceleration is negative because is a braking process.</u>

First off, you need to know the weight of the projectile, lift and drag coefficients something like a high Reynolds number is preferred, then use the gravitational constant of 9.8 meters per second squared those would be a good start to get closer to your goal
