Adiver springs upward from a board that is 3.90 m above the water. at the instant she contacts the water her speed is 13.2 m/s and her body makes an angle of 81.8 ° with respect to the horizontal surface of the water. determine her initial velocity, both (a) magnitude and (b) direction.

a) u = 9.88 m/s

b)

Explanation:

given,

speed of the diver = 13.2 m/s

Angle made w.r.t horizontal = 81.8 °

The horizontal component of final velocity

v_h = 13.2 cos 81.8 °

The vertical component of final velocity

v_v = 13.2 sin 81.8 °

using equation of motion

initial velocity of vertical component

      = 9.70 m/s

the horizontal component of the initial velocity

u_h = v_h = 13.2 cos 81.8 ° = 1.88 m/s

magnitude

u = 9.88 m/s

direction

no

sodium is solid at rt

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s
