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.

Is it possible to be moving but not be in motion?
GREYUIT [131]

No. Motion is the thing that when you're moving, you're in it.

But it IS possible for one person to say you're moving and another person to say you're not moving, both at the same time, and both of them are correct !

An apple is placed 20.0 cm in front of a diverging lens of focal length 10.0 cm. Find the image distance and the magnification o
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification of apple=0.33

Explanation:

We are given that an apple is placed 20.cm in front of a diverging lens.

Object distance=u=-20 cm

Focal length=f=-10 cm

Because focal length of diverging lens is negative.

We have to find the image distance and magnification of the apple.

Lens formula

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}

Substitute the values then we get

-\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{v}=-\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{v}=\frac{-2-1}{20}=-\frac{3}{20}

v=-\frac{20}{3}=-6.7 cm

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification=m=\frac{v}{u}=\frac{-\frac{20}{3}}{-20}

Magnification of apple=\frac{1}{3}=0.33

Hence, the magnification of apple=0.33

A car moving with an initial speed v collides with a second stationary car that is one-half as massive. After the collision the
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

4v/3

Explanation:

Assume elastic collision by the law of momentum conservation:

m_1v = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2

where v is the original speed of car 1, v1 is the final speed of car 1 and v2 is final speed of car 2. m1 and m2 are masses of car 1 and car 2, respectively

Substitute m_2 = m_1/2 \& v_1 = v/3

m_1v = \frac{m_1v}{3} + \frac{m_1v_2}{2}

Divide both side by m_1, then multiply by 6 we have

6v = 2v + 3v_2

3v_2 = 4v

v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}

So the final speed of the second car is 4/3 of the first car original speed

A woman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. The boo
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.

The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.

Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.

To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.

W = m*g

W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]

W = 12.75 [N]
