While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.
Answer:
v = 15.8 m/s
Explanation:
Let's analyze the situation a little, we have a compressed spring so it has an elastic energy that will become part kinetic energy and a potential part for the man to get out of the barrel, in addition there is a friction force that they perform work against the movement. So the variation of mechanical energy is equal to the work of the fictional force
= ΔEm = 
-Em₀
Let's write the mechanical energy at each point
Initial
Em₀ = Ke = ½ k x²
Final
= K + U = ½ m v² + mg y
Let's use Hooke's law to find compression
F = - k x
x = -F / k
x = 4400/1100
x = - 4 m
Let's write the energy equation
fr d = ½ m v² + mgy - ½ k x²
Let's clear the speed
v² = (fr d + ½ kx² - mg y) 2 / m
v² = (40 4.00 + ½ 1100 4² - 60.0 9.8 2.50) 2/60.0
v² = (160 + 8800 - 1470) / 30
v = √ (229.66)
v = 15.8 m/s
The correct answer is 1.4285714.
In physics, velocity is characterised as a vector measurement of the motion's direction and speed. To be more precise, the rate of change in an object's position relative to a frame of reference and time is another way to describe velocity. The definition of velocity simply states the rate of motion of an object in a specific direction. It determines how quickly or slowly something is going.
Velocity = distance/ time
Thus time = distance/velocity
Here velocity = 350m/s
diatnce = 500 m
time = 500/350
time = 1.42857142857
t= 200m /350m/s = 1.4285714

So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.
The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m
The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.
This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m
So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)
Answer:
The pressure on the floor is 12 Pascal(Pa).
Explanation:
Given,
Force (F) = 240N
Area (A) = 20 cm^2
Pressure (P) = ?
we know that,
P = F/A
= 240/ 20
= 12 Pa
