When the parachute deploys it increases the persons air resistance to (temporaily) greater than the force of weight. This causes them to decellerate. As they decellerate resistance decreases again until once again it balances out. Terminal velocity is reduced to a safe level, and landing without injury is possible.
Answer:
The minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank is 0.0189 m
Explanation:
Given data:
d = inside diameter = 8.1 m
P = internal pressure = 1.26 MPa
σ = 270 MPa
factor of safety = 2
Question: Determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank, tmin = ?
The allow factor of safety:

The minimun wall thickness:

Answer:
72.1 m
Explanation:
Hello!
When the walker walks west, each block he walks will be of 100 m, so the walker walked 4*100m = 400 m west.
Similarly, when the walker walks south, he walks 20 meters per block, therefore, the walker walked 4*20 m = 80 m south.
Since the directions west and south are perpendicular, the distance between the start ad end point is:
d = √(400^2 + 80^2) m = 407.92 m
However the walker traveled 480 m
Therefore, the walker traveled 480 - 407.9 m = 72.1 m farther than the actual distance
