Answer:

11060M  Joules, where M is the mass of the diver in kg

Explanation:

Mass of the skydiver missing, we're assuming it's M.

It's total energy is the sum of the contribution of his kinetic energy (K)- since he's moving at 50 m/s, and it's potential energy (U), since he's subject to earth gravity.

Energy is the sum of the two, so E = K+U= \frac 12 M v^2 + Mgh = M (\frac 12 \cdot 50^2 + 9.81\cdot 1000) = M ( 1250 + 9810) = 11060\cdot M

What role does density play in the movement of convection curruents?
shtirl [24]

Convection occurs through heat transfer due to a difference in density in the fluids.

Consider a pot of water being heated. The water in the pot gets heated rises ,it provides energy for the particles in the water to move and thus the water expands which results in the density of the water becoming less. These particles rise up till the top of the pot owing to the property of very less density of the particles.


Then after some time, it cools down which results in increase of the density of the particles. The heavier denser particles sink to the bottom and is once again heated and rises and this process continues unless all the water particles in the pot are heated and warmed.This transfer of energy by the movement of particles cause convection.


During the day the heat surface above the earth exposed to the sun's rays is heated. This rise in temperature,decreases the density of the air and the warm air rises.

This air cools down and becomes denser. This dense cool air sink back and forces the warm air to rise again.

This transfer of movement of particles causes convection. This cycle is the cause of winds and thus energy is transferred through the atmosphere.

A particle moves in a velocity field V(x, y) = x2, x + y2 . If it is at position (x, y) = (7, 2) at time t = 3, estimate its loc
MArishka [77]

Answer:

New location at time 3.01 is given by: (7.49, 2.11)

Explanation:

Let's start by understanding what is the particle's velocity (in component form) in that velocity field at time 3:

V_x=x^2=7^2=49\\V_y=x+y^2=7+2^2=11

With such velocities in the x direction and in the y-direction respectively, we can find the displacement in x and y at a time 0.01 units later by using the formula:

distance=v\,*\, t

distance_x=49\,(0.01)=0.49\\distance_y=11\,(0.01)=0.11

Therefore, adding these displacements in component form to the original particle's position, we get:

New position: (7 + 0.49, 2 + 0.11) = (7.49, 2.11)
