Cliff divers at Acapulco jump into the sea from a cliff 36 meters high. At the level of the sea, there is an outcropping of rock

that sticks out a horizontal distance of 6 meters. With what minimum horizontal velocity must the cliff divers leave the top of the cliff if they are to miss this rocky outcropping?

Answer:

<em>The cliff drivers must leave the top of the cliff at 2.21 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion</u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with a speed v from a height h, it describes a curved path ruled exclusively by gravity until it eventually hits the ground.

The range or maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {2h}{g}}

If the range is known and we are required to find the initial speed of launch, then we can solve the above equation for v as follows:

\displaystyle v=d\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {g}{2h}}

Cliff drivers jump into the sea from a height of h=36 m and must pass over an obstacle d=6 meters away from the cliff.

Let's calculate the speed needed:

\displaystyle v=6~m\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {9.8~m/s^2}{2\cdot 36~m}}

\displaystyle v=6~m\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {9.8~m/s^2}{72~m}}

v=2.21~m/s

The cliff drivers must leave the top of the cliff at 2.21 m/s

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

18.9 <em>N or </em><em>19</em><em> N </em>rounded

Explanation:

m = 0.145 kg

a = 130 m/s^2

F = ma = (0.145 kg)(130 m/s^2) = 18.9 <em>N</em>

Ksp for agbr is 5x10-13. what is the maximum concentration of silver ion that you can have in a 0.1 m solution of nabr?
liberstina [14]

Answer : The maximum concentration of silver ion is 5\times 10^{-12}m

Solution : Given,

K_{sp} for AgBr = 5\times 10^{-13}

Concentration of NaBr solution = 0.1 m

The equilibrium reaction for NaBr solution is,

NaBr(aq)\rightleftharpoons Na^++Br^-

The concentration of NaBr solution is 0.1 m that means,

[Na^+]=[Br^-]=0.1m

The equilibrium reaction for AgBr is,

                          AgBr\rightleftharpoons Ag^++Br^-

At equilibrium                     s       s

The expression for solubility product constant for AgBr is,

K_{sp}=[Ag^+][Br^-]

The concentration of Ag^+ = s

The concentration of Br^- = 0.1 + s

Now put all the given values in K_{sp} expression, we get

5\times 10^{-13}=(s)(0.1+s)

By rearranging the terms, we get the value of 's'

s=5\times 10^{-12}m

Therefore, the maximum concentration of silver ion is 5\times 10^{-12}m.
