A person reaches a maximum height of 65 cm when jumping straight up from a crouched position. During the jump itself, the person's body from the knees up rises a distance of around 41 cm. To keep the calculations simple and yet get a reasonable result, assume that the entire body rises this much during the jump. A) With what initial speed does the person leave the ground to reach a height of 60 cm?B) In terms of this jumper's weight W , what force does the ground exert on him or her during the jump?

Jasmine is diving off a 3-meter springboard. her height in meters above the water when she is x meters horizontally from the end of the board is approximated by the equation h=-x^2+3x+3. what is the maximum height jasmine will reach on her dive?

In a series circuit the __ is the same at every point

1. what is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave? a) the penetrating power has no relationship to the wavelength. b) the penetrating power increases as the wavelength increases. c) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases. d) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength decreases. 2. as ice melts and turns into water, the speed of sound through the material would most likely do what? justify your answer. a) the speed would not change because the material is always water. b) the speed of sound would increase because the density of water is less than that of ice. c) the speed of sound would increase because energy is added to ice in order to make it melt. d) the speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids. 3.which of these waves need a medium to travel through? a) sound b) x-rays c) infrared rays d) visible light
