Explain why, in terms of forces, there is a risk of head injury when diving from this height. Suggest why the high divers would
podryga [215]

Answer:

Due to lower risk of injury or damage.

Explanation:

The high divers would choose to enter the water from the feet first because there is low risk of injury. The brain is the most important part of the body which very sensitive to any small injury. Small injury to brain leads to big problems in life. High divers can reach speeds of nearly 60 mph and enters about 28m into the water in about three seconds which can damage the head region if comes in contact with the ground so this is the reason the high divers avoid of entering in the water through their heads and choose entering through their feet.

Two resistors, R1 and R2, are
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The value of R₂ is equal to 24.75 ohms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors, R₁ and R₂, are  connected in parallel.

The equivalent resistance is 14.5 ohms

We need to find the value of R₂.

When two resistors are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance is given by :

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}\\\\\dfrac{1}{14.5}=\dfrac{1}{35}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}\\\\\dfrac{1}{R_2}=\dfrac{1}{14.5}-\dfrac{1}{35}\\\\\dfrac{1}{R_2}=0.04039\\\\R_2=\dfrac{1}{0.04039}\\\\R_2=24.75\ \Omega

So, the value of R₂ is equal to 24.75 ohms.
