Respuesta :

Answer:

12.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of diver  = 77kg

Height of jump  = 8.18m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply the motion equation below:

             v²   = u²  + 2gH

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

       v² = 0²  +  2 x 9.8 x 8.18

     v  = 12.7m/s
