A skydiver is jumping from an airplane traveling at 10.0 m/s. The plane is 3520 m above the earth. The sky diver pulls his cord

at 1760 m above the earth. Neglecting air resistance, how far does the skydiver travel horizontally before pulling the cord?
x=____
a.3590m
b.134m
c.190m

Given:
<span>velocity = 10.0 m/s.
The plane is 3520 m above the earth. The sky diver pulls his cord at 1760 m above the earth.</span>
gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Δheight = initial height - final height = gt²/2 

time =√(2 • Δh/g) 
time =√{2 • (3520-1760)/9.8}
time =√{2 * 179.59 s²
time = √359.18
time = 18.95 s. 

s=vt=10•18.95=189.5m or 190m

<span>The skydiver traveled 190m horizontally before pulling the cord.</span>

While Bob is demonstrating the gravitational force on falling objects to his class, he drops an 1.0 lb bag of feathers from the
BartSMP [9]

In the experiment of free fall bob released a bag of mass 1 lb

so here we can say that initial speed of the bag is Zero

time taken by the bag to free fall is given as

t = 1.5 s

also the acceleration of free fall is given as

a = 9.8 m/s^2

now we will use kinematics equation here for finding the distance of free fall

d = v_i * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*9.8* 1.5^2

d = 4.9 * 2.25

d = 11.025 m

so the bag will fall down by total distance of 11.025 m from its initial released position.

Novay_Z [31]

Answer: Pressure increases as the depth increases

Explanation: The pressure in a liquid is due to the weight of the column of water above. Since the particles in a liquid are tightly packed, this pressure acts in all directions.

In which type of collision is no kinetic energy converted to heat or sound<br> energy?
mezya [45]

Answer:

elastic collision

An elastic collision occurs when the two objects "bounce" apart when they collide. Two rubber balls are a good example. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. Almost no energy is lost to sound, heat, or deformation.

I hope it's helpful!
