    What Is the Average Force Exerted by Water on a Diver?

    isn't velocity 0 when the diver hits the water? velocity changes are caused by force according to Newton's 1st law. sooo the force of the water changes the velocity? i still don't get how to find the force the water exerts if i only have the mass :(

    What Is the Average Force Exerted by Water on a Diver?

    1. a 10 kg diver dives into a pool. what is the average force the water exerts on the man? 2. W= Fnet * \Deltar KE= 1/2 mv2 W= F \Deltar cos\theta 3. W= F\Deltar cos\theta W= -Fwaterd do i have enough info?

    What Is the Average Force Exerted by Water on a Diver?

    how do you solve a problem like this? a diver jumps into the water. what is the force exerted by the water? we are only given the mass of the diver i know it has to do with energy (gravitational and potential?), but i don't know how to do it.

    Calculate Torque in 12.2m Crane - 18kN Load, 67kN Tension

    I drew a line of action through the point of application (the pulley at the top) and a lever arm. lever arm = r sin 5 = 12.2m * sin 5 = 1.063m 1.063m * 67 kN = 71.24 kN*m That's my work, but I don't know if I did it right. I'm not sure I drew the line of action right because I don't know...

    Calculate Torque in 12.2m Crane - 18kN Load, 67kN Tension

    1. The 12.2m crane weighs 18 kN and is lifting a 67-kN load. The hoisting cable (tension T1) passes over a pulley at the top of the crane and attaches to an electric winch in the cab. THe pendant cable (tension T2), which supports the crane, is fixed to the top of the crane. Find the tensions in...
