This is basically Michael Faraday's law and this is known as electromagnetic induction

That's all I know

Answer:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

Explanation:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth can be calculated as follows:

$c = \frac{x}{t}$

Where:

c: is the speed of light = 3x10⁸ m/s

t: is the time = 8 min

Hence, the distance is:

$x = c*t = 3 \cdot 10^{8} m/s*8 min*\frac{60 s}{1 min} = 1.44 \cdot 10^{11} m = 1.44 \cdot 10^{8} km$

Therefore, the order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

A 72-kg skydiver is falling from 10000 feet. At an instant during the fall, the skydiver

Answer:

Approximately $2.31\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ (assuming that the acceleration due to gravity is $g = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .)

Explanation:

Assuming that $g = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ the weight on this 72-kg skydiver would be $W = m \cdot g = 72 \; \rm kg \times 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} = 706.32\; \rm N$ (points downwards.)

Air resistance is supposed to act in the opposite direction of the motion. Since this skydiver is moving downwards, the air resistance on the skydiver would point upwards.

Therefore, the net force on this skydiver should be the difference between the weight and the air resistance on the skydiver:

$\begin{aligned}F(\text{net force}) &= W - F(\text{air resistance})\\ &= 706.32\; \rm N - 540\; \rm N =166.32\; \rm N \end{aligned}$ .
