Aswimmer runs over a horizontal diving board at a speed of 0.95 meters/second. 2.0 seconds after she dives, she hits the water. what was the height of the diving board from the water's surface and how far from the board was the swimmer when she hit the water? a. 20 meters, 1.9 meters b. 1.9 meters, 20 meters c. 20 meters, 2.0 meters d. 2.2 meters, 20 meters

  A.  20 meters, 1.9 meters

Explanation:

The diver's horizontal speed is 0.95 m/s, so in 2 seconds, she travels ...

  distance = speed × time

  = (0.95 m/s)×(2 s) = 1.90 m

This is sufficient to point you to answer choice A.

__

The usual formula for vertical motion under the influence of gravity is ...

  h(t) = -4.9t² +v0·t +h0

where v0 and h0 are the initial vertical speed and height, respectively. If there is no vertical speed to begin with, and the ending height is 0, then after 2 seconds, we have ...

  0 = -4.9·2² +h0

  19.6 = h0 . . . . . the starting height is 19.6 meters

__

To simplify the numbers, the above formula is sometimes written ...

  h(t) = -5t² +h0

Using this formula, we get h0 = 20 meters, matching choice A.

6/12=1/2

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is the first electromagnet (a). this is because it has more coils around the ferromagnetic material. increasing the number of coils increases the surface area in which the metal interacts with the current in the coil. this enables more atoms in the metal to become aligned hence becoming more magnetized.
