Answer:

1626.4 N

Explanation:

Given that a 82 kg man, at rest, drops from a diving board 3.0 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.55 s after reaching the water. What force does the water exert on him?

The parameters to be considered are:

Distance S = 3m

Time t = 0.55s

Since the man started from rest, initial velocity u = 0

Using second equation of motion

S = Ut + 1/2at^2

3 = 1/2 × a × 0.55^2

3 = 1/2 × a × 0.3025

a = 3/ 0.15125

a = 19.83 m/s^2

Force = mass × acceleration

Force = 82 × 19.83

Force = 1626.4 N

Therefore, the force that water exerted on him is 1626.4 N

A 60 W light bulb is powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals. a) What is the current passi
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The current through the resistor is 0.5 A

Explanation:

Given;

power of the light bulb = 60 W

voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals = 120 V

power of the light bulb is the product of voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals and the current passing through the resistor.

power = voltage x current

Current = \frac{power}{voltage} = \frac{60}{120} = 0.5 A

Therefore, for a  60 W light bulb powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals, the current passing through the resistor is 0.5 A

Three long, straight wires are carrying currents that have the same magnitude. In C the current is opposite to that in A and B.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

(b) B

Explanation:

The direction of force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field can be found using the right hand rule, which states that-"stretch the thumb in the direction of the current, and point the fingers in the direction of magnetic field. The direction of palm will then give the direction of force on the wire

On wire B the forces due to A and C act in the same direction and so strengthen each other. they get added up because the forces act in the same direction.

on wires A and C the forces (due to B and C and A and B

respectively) act in opposite directions and therefore tend to cancel out.

What type of force is needed for motion to occur?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Forces include gravity, friction, and applied force. Force causes changes in the speed or direction of motion. These changes are called acceleration

Is blacklight the same as ultraviolet?
Misha Larkins [42]
Blacklight is made of a type of ultraviolet light called UV-A, but blacklight is not the same as ultraviolet light. Blacklight lamps only emit in the lower energy range of ultraviolet light.
