Answer:

Gravity provides a downward force, resulting in the diver going downward. They speed up like any falling object would, the pull of gravity is a dominant force. (There is a drag force – as a result of moving through the air.)

What does addition of two vectors give you?

mash [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

To add or subtract two vectors, add or subtract the corresponding components. Let →u=⟨u1,u2⟩ and →v=⟨v1,v2⟩ be two vectors. The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .

66. Calculate the displacement and velocity at times of (a) 0.500 s, (b) 1.00 s, (c) 1.50 s, and (d) 2.00 s for a ball thrown st

kozerog [31]

Answer:

a) t=1s

y = 10.1m

v=5.2m/s

b) t=1.5s

y =11.475 m

v=0.3m/s

c) t=2s

y =10.4 m

v=-4.6m/s (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply the free fall formula for position (y) and speed (v) at any time (t).

As gravity opposes movement the sign in the equations is negative.:

y = vi*t - ½ g*t2 Equation 1

v=vit-g*t Equation 2

y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t

vi: Initial speed

g= acceleration due to gravity

v= Speed the ball moves at time t

Known information

We know the following data:

Vi=15 m / s

$g =9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

t=1s ,1.5s,2s

Development of problem

We replace t in the equations (1) and (2)

a) t=1s

$y = 15*1 - ½ 9.8*1^{2}$ =15-4.9=10.1m

v=15-9.8*1 =15-9.8 =5.2m/s

b) t=1.5s

$y = 15*1.5 - ½ 9.8*1.5^{2}$ =22.5-11.025=11.475 m

v=15-9.8*1.5 =15-14.7=0.3m/s

c) t=2s

$y = 15*2 - ½ 9.8*2^{2}$ = 30-19.6=10.4 m

v=15-9.8*2 =15-19.6=-4.6m/s (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)
