Sometimes, supplies can be delivered to people in remote areas by dropping them off from a plane. This is usually the case for g

round troops working in areas where planes are unable to land safely. Parachutes are attached to boxes to prevent damage to items when they land. Compare the parachute setups in the image; A has three parachutes attached, B has one parachute attached, and C has two parachutes attached. If every parachute in all three setups are the same size, and each setup was attached to a 50-pound box, which lists the order the boxes would land from slowest to quickest?
A) A, B, C
B) B, C, A

The order the boxes would land from slowest to quickest is A,C,B which is option C.

<h3>What is a Parachute?</h3>

This is a device used to slow the motion of an object through an atmosphere by creating drag.

The size of the parachute affects the speed of falling because a larger parachute allows it to displace more air, causing it to fall more slowly. The one with three parachutes which is A will fall slowest and the one with just one will fall fastest.

You can describe the _______________ of an object by saying it is moving in a straight line or is curved around another object.
velikii [3]

Answer:

You can describe the<u> motion </u>of an object by saying it is moving in a straight line or is curved around another object. You can also describe where an object is by its <u> position </u> in relation to another object. The second object acts as a<u> reference</u> point. When an object changes position, you know it has motion. Motion can also be described by finding an object's <u>speed  </u>or how fast or slow it moves in a certain amount of time. In addition, you can describe the object's speed AND direction together. This is called <u>velocity</u>

Explanation:

In the given answer-

<u>Motion</u> is defined as - the change in the movement or position of any object  or body.

<u>Position</u> is said to be a place or somewhere or a location where any object or body is particularly placed/located or put on.

<u>Reference poin</u>t is a fixed point with regards to which any object or body changes its position. It is also called reference origin.

<u>Speed</u> is defined as the rate of any object covering certain distances. It is a scaler quantity (quantity which depends upon only magnitude).

<u>Velocity</u> is defined as the rate of speed per unit time. It is a vector quantity (quantity depending upon both magnitude and direction ).

A rifle with a mass of 0.9 kg fires a bullet with a mass of 6.0 g (0.006 kg). The bullet moves with a muzzle velocity of 750 m/s
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a )  4.5 N.s

b) V =5 m/s    

Explanation:

given,

mass of rifle(M)  = 0.9 kg

mass of bullet(m)  = 6 g = 0.006 kg

velocity of the bullet(v)  = 750 m/s

a) momentum of bullet = m × v

                                  = 750 × 0.006

                                  = 4.5 N.s

b) recoil velocity                                                      

m × u + M × U = m × v + M × V

0  + 0  = 0.006 × 750 -  0.9 × V

V = \dfrac{4.5}{0.9}

V =5 m/s

An unknown substance has a mass of 11.9 g . When the substance absorbs 1.071×102 J of heat, the temperature of the substance is
Mashcka [7]

Answer: The most likely identity of the substance is iron.

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed=1.071\times 10^2 Joules

m= mass of substance = 11.9 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = T_i = 25.0°C

Final temperature of the water = T_f  = 45.0°CChange in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(45-25)^0C=20^0C

Putting in the values, we get:

1.071\times 10^2=11.9\times c\times 20^0C

c=0.45J/g^0C

The specific heat of 0.45 is for iron and thus the substance is iron.

Why do all planets rotate around the sun in the ssame direction
Nutka1998 [239]
This is because of the conservation of angular momentum, which allows most planets to spin in the same direction, but Venus and Uranus have seem to ignore this as they spin in different directions, as Venus spins clockwise and Uranus is on its side

A 99.1-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =
Stels [109]

Answer:

628.022466 N

8.61 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass

\mu = Coefficient of friction

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.646\times 99.1\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=628.022466\ N

Magnitude of frictional force is 628.022466 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F_f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{628.022466}{99.1}\\\Rightarrow a=6.33726\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-6.33726\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow u=8.61\ m/s

Initial speed of the player is 8.61 m/s
