A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.00 m/s, and

her takeoff point is 1.90 m above the pool.
Required:
a. What is her highest point above the board?
b. How long a time are her feet in the air?
c. What is her velocity when her feet hit the water?

Answer:

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s

Explanation: let the following

From the first equation of linear motion

V = u+at..........1

parameters be represented as :

t = Time taken

v = Final velocity

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

u = Initial velocity = 4 m/s

s = Displacement

V = 0

Substitute the values into equation 1

0 = 4-9.8(t)

-4 = -9.8t

t = 4/9.8

t = 0.408s

From : s = ut+1/2at^2.........2

S = 4×0.408+0.5(-9.8)×0.408^2

S= 1.632-4.9(0.166)

S = 1.632-0.815

S = 0.817m

Her highest height above the board is 0.817 m

Total height she would fall is 0.817+1.90 = 2.717 m

From equation 2

s = ut+1/2at^2

2.717 m = 0t+0.5(9.8)t^2

2.717 m = 0+4.9t^2

2.717 m = 4.9t^2

2.717/4.9 = t^2

0.554 =t^2

t =√0.554

t = 0.744s

Hence, her feet were in the air for 0.744+0.408seconds

= 1.152s

Also recall from equation 1

V= u+at

V = 0+9.8(0.744)

V = 7.29m/s

Hence, the velocity when she hits the water is 7.29m/s

Finally,

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s

Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of the charges (q1 = +7.7 µC) is at x1 = +3.1 cm and the other (q2 = -19 µC) is at x2
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a)E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The direction will be negative direction.

b)E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The direction will be positive direction.

Explanation:

Given that

q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm

q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm

We know that electric filed due to a charge given as

E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}

E_1=K\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}

E_2=K\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2}

Now by putting the va;ues

a)

E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.031^2}\ N/C

E_1=72.11\times 10^{6}\ N/C

E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.089^2}\ N/C

E_2=21.58\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The net electric field

E=E_1-E_2

E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The direction will be negative direction.

As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.

b)

Now

distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm

distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm

E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.024^2}\ N/C

E_1=120.3\times 10^{6}\ N/C

E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.034^2}\ N/C

E_2=147.92\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The net electric field

E=E_1+E_2

E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C

The direction will be positive direction.

A student says that the two terms speed and frequency of the wave refer to the same thing. What is your response?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

He is wrong!

Explanation:

Frequency refers to how many wave lengths pass in a second and speed is how fast the wave is traveling for example the speed of light goes really fast but has a mid-level frequency.

Hope this helps! ;-)

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

please find the solution which is defined as follows:

Explanation:

Throughout the opposite direction, she not able to throw her tool-belt. In this scenario, she will be sending her floating through her ship. Unless interrupted, it could refer to Newton's The rule of it in motion remains in motion. Consequently, if they throw it one way because there are no molecules to interrupt your course, you can continue to go the other way.
