A72.0-kg skydiver is falling at a terminal velocity of 79.0 m/s. which equation should be used to calculate the diver’s kinetic energy?

Athin, square metal plate measures 14 cm on each side and has emissivity of 0.60. the plate is heated to a temperature of 745°c. what is the rate at which the plate radiates energy ? the stefan-boltzmann constant is 5.67 × 10-8 w/(m2 ? k4). remember that the plate will radiate energy from both its top and bottom surfaces.

Use the profile illustrated for problem (1). assume that the layer of silty sand fill (sm) is placed over the entire site. estimate the thickness of the fill (h - in feet) that will cause the effective vertical stress at the center of the clay layer to increase by 517.5 pounds per square foot.

Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.6 m below the tank bottom which is a = 6.7 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute). report your answer in meters to two decimal places.
