What else can I help you with?
Will a sky diver with a greater mass accelerate faster that a sky diver with less mass?
No, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass due to gravity, neglecting air resistance. The acceleration of gravity on an object is independent of its mass.
When a diver jumps off a diving board gravity pulls him or her to the water What is the reaction force to Earth's gravity?
Gravity always acts as a pair of forces, not as one single force. The strength of the forces depends on both masses, not just one of them. The forces of gravity attract the diver toward the earth and the earth toward the diver. The forces are equal in both directions. If the diver weighs 150 pounds on earth, then the earth weighs 150 pounds on the diver. The diver accelerates toward the center of the earth with an acceleration equal to (weight)/(diver's mass), and the earth accelerates toward the diver with an acceleration equal to (weight)/(earth's mass). Has that helped, or just confused the issue further ?
When a diver jumps off a diving board gravity pulls him or her down to the water what is the reaction force to earth gravity?
The reaction force to Earth's gravity on the diver is the gravitational attraction that the diver exerts back on Earth. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the Earth pulls the diver down, and the diver also pulls the Earth up with an equal force.
After the diver jumps forward from the diving board the force of gravity will accelerate the diver parallel to the direction of motion?
After the diver jumps forward from the diving board, the force of gravity will act vertically downwards, accelerating the diver towards the water. The forward motion of the diver will continue unless another force, like air resistance or the water, acts in the opposite direction to slow them down.
When a diver jumps off a diving board gravity pulls him or her to the water What is the reaction force to Earth's gravity true or false?
The diver and the Earth actually pull on each other with the same force. But with Force = mass x acceleration, rearrange that to: Acceleration = Force / mass. With such a large mass, the Earth is accelerated by a miniscule amount. Compared to the acceleration of the diver, it is not noticed.
When the diver hits the water the force of water against her body can stop it about five times faster than the pull of gravity that accelerated it true or false?
No is my guess i think its false but it might be wrong.^^'

How does a skydiver float?
The momentum of the diver with the gravity against the thinner air in the altitude and the position of your body cause you to slow down your fall.
What forces do a sky diver use?
Gravity

After a diver jumps forward from the diving board the force of gravity will accelerate the diver parallel to the direction of motion?
Yes!
A diver is standing on a 2 m high diving board. The diver has 1274 J of gravitational potential energy.Calculate the diver's mass?
64.9559kg if the gravity acceleration is 1

How does a diver's kinetic energy changes as the diver falls?
As a diver falls, their kinetic energy increases due to the acceleration from gravity. Initially, when the diver jumps off the platform, they have potential energy that converts into kinetic energy as they descend. The faster the diver falls, the greater their kinetic energy becomes, following the formula ( KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 ), where ( m ) is mass and ( v ) is velocity. Thus, as the diver falls, kinetic energy rises while potential energy decreases until they reach the water.
