Answer: Nitrogen

Explanation: Nitrogen makes up 78% of the atmosphere, Oxygen makes up 21%, and Argon 0.9%.

Water vaper makes up between 1-4%, depending on the region.

Carbon Dioxide makes up only about 0.04%.

4. A metal fork has a density of 7.8 g/cm ³. Is this fork made up of aluminum?
Morgarella [4.7K]
No, aluminum has a density near 2.7 g/cm^3 
<span>7.8 g/cm^3 is near the density of iron (or in the case of a fork, steel).

The platform height for Olympic divers is 10 m. A 60 kg diver steps off the platform to begin his dive.
azamat

Answer:

a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c)   W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]

Explanation:

a)

The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.

E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m = mass = 60[kg]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h = elevation = 10 [m]\\E_{p}=60*9.81*10\\E_{p}=5886[J]

b)

Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

E_{p} = E_{k} \\5886 =0.5*m*v^{2} \\v = \sqrt{\frac{5886}{0.5*60} }\\v = 14[m/s]

c)

The work is equal to

W = 5886 [J]

d)

We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.

v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}-2*a*d\\where:\\d = 2.5[m]\\v_{f}=0\\v_{o} =14[m/s]\\Therefore\\a = \frac{14^{2} }{2*2.5} \\a = 39.2[m/s^2]

By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.

m*g - F = m*a

F = m*a - m*g

F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)

F = 1763.4 [N]

Which term describes the number of crests that pass a point in a given amount of time
joja [24]
The term is frequency.

The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.

Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.
