When a parachutist jumps from an airplane, he eventually reaches a constant speed, called the terminal speed. Once he has reache

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

None of the above forces on air drag on him is equal to his weight

Explanation:

In the velocity-time graph,the gradient of the curve where it is flatten shows the parachutist reaches the terminal velocity when it reaches terminal velocity which means the parachutist reaches constant velocity or speed,indicating that the acceleration of free fall(g) is zero.And according to the resultant force formula weight - air drag= mass*acceleration. so when accelerate is zero,resultant force is zero. And hence the equation will be like this: weight= air drag

A bowling ball rolls 33\,\text m33m33, start text, m, end text with an average speed of 2.5\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}2.5 s m 2

asambeis [7]

The ball rolled for 13.2 s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Speed is scalar and no direction

$\tt avg~speed=\dfrac{total~distance}{elapsed~time}=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

A bowling ball rolls 33 m, with average speed = 2.5 m/s

So elapsed time :

$\tt t=\dfrac{33~m}{2.5`m/s}=13.2~s$

Two balls are dropped from rest and allowed to fall. If one ball is allowed to fall for 1 s and the other for 3 s compare the di

kirill115 [55]

The second ball traveled a greater distance when compared to the first ball because the second ball spent more time in motion.

The given parameters;

time of fall of the first ball, t = 1 s
time of fall of the second ball, t = 3 s

The distance traveled by each ball is calculated using the second equation of motion as shown below.

The distance traveled by the first ball is calculated as follows;

$h = u_0t + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (0.5\times 9.8\times 1^2)\\\\h = 4.9 \ m$

The distance traveled by the second ball is calculated as follows;

$h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (0.5\times 9.8\times 3^2)\\\\h = 44.1\ m$

Thus, the second ball traveled a greater distance because it spent more time in motion.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

All substances have characteristic physical and chemical properties. Physical properties are those that can be observed with the senses without changing the identity of the substance. Chemical properties describe how a substance can be changed into a new substance. Physical and chemical properties, such as color, density, boiling point, solubility, conductivity, and flammability, A. are always different between substances. B. depend on the amount of the substance. C. do not depend on the amount of the substance. D. have the same values for all substances.
