A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 3.00 m/s, and her takeoff point is 1.80 m above the pool.(a) How long are her feet in the air?(b) What is the highest point above the board her feet reach? (c) What is her velocity when her feet hit the water?

A) 0.9844 s

B) x2 = 0.4587 m

C) v = 6.657 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Height of take off point above pool; x1 = 1.8 m

Initial take off velocity; u = 3 m/s

Final velocity at highest point before free fall; v = 0 m/s

B) To find the highest point above the board her feet reaches means the distance from take off to the top of the motion just before free fall.

Thus, we will be using equation of motion and we have;

v² = u² + 2gs

Now, let s = x2 which will be the distance between take off and the top before free fall.

So;

v² = u² + 2g(x2)

Now,since the motion is against gravity, g will be negative.

Thus;

v² = u² + 2(-9.81)(x2)

Plugging in the relevant values to give;

0² = 3² - (19.62x2)

19.62(x2) = 9

x2 = 9/19.62

x2 = 0.4587 m

A) We want to find how long her feet is in air.. It means we want to find out the time to get to a distance of x1 and also the time to achieve the distance (x1 + x2) on free-fall.

Thus, using equation of motion;

v = u + gt

Again, g = -9.81

Thus;

0 = 3 - 9.81t1

9.81t1 = 3

t1 = 3/9.81

t1 = 0.3058 s

Now, for the time taken to achieve the distance (x1 + x2) on free-fall, we will use the formula;

s = ut + ½gt²

Where s = (x1 + x2) = 1.8 + 0.4587 = 2.2587 m

And now, u = 0 m/s because the start of the free fall is from maximum height with velocity of 0 m/s. Again, g = - 9.81 m/s²

Thus;

2.2587 = 0 - ½(-9.81)(t2)²

2.2587 = 4.905(t2)²

(t2)² = 2.2587/4.905

(t2)² = 0.4605

t2 = √0.4605

t2 = 0.6786 s

Thus, total time of feet in air = t1 + t2 = 0.3058 + 0.6786 = 0.9844 s

C) Velocity when feet hit the water would be given by;

v = u + gt

Where u = 0 m/s and t = t2 = 0.6786

Since it's in direction of gravity, g = 9.81 m/s

v = 0 + (0.6786 × 9.81)

v = 6.657 m/s

you cant move and you feel like someones pushing you down onto your bed it can feel like you want to get up but you just can't it can be extremely scary

where is the circuit diagram ?
