Answer:

The condition necessary for the person to be able to remain stationary in mid-air is that there must be an upward force also referred to as THRUST

Explanation:

Thrust in Physics is defined as the force that propels, forces or pushes the mass of a certain object in a specified or particular direction.

Thrust can defined in the terms of a Jet pack can be defined as the force that is required to propel the mass of a person in an upward direction.

Based on the diagram that we have been shown the question, we can see that water is the fuel used to proper the user or person upwards hence, the jet pack used in the question is an HydroJet pack

The condition necessary for the person to be able to remain stationary in mid-air is that the propelling force called the thrust must be upwards such that it can overcome these 4 things:

a) Gravitational force

b) Mass of the jet pack user

c) Mass of the jet pack itself

d) The water which serves as fuel for the jet pack.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

  g ≈ 7.4 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on planet XX is ...

  g = GM/r² = (6.67·10^-11 × 4·10^22)/(6·10^5)^2

  g ≈ 7.4 m/s²

Where does the majority of the mass of an atom come from
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The Nucleus

Explanation:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume.  I hope this helps you :D

a wire with mass per unit length 75 g/m runs horizontally at right angles to a uniform horizontal 0.12 T magnetic field. what am
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The amount of current that must flow through the wire for it to be suspended against gravity by magnetic force = 6.125 A

Explanation:

Force on a wire carrying current in an electric field is given by

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

For this question,

The magnetic force must match the weight of the wire.

F = mg

mg = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

(m/L)g = (B)(I) sin θ

Mass per unit length = 75 g/m = 0.075 kg/m

B = magnetic field = 0.12 T

I = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s

θ = angle between wire's current direction and magnetic field = 90°

0.075 × 9.8 = 0.12 × I sin 90°

I = 0.075 × 9.8/0.12 = 6.125 A
