Answer:

Passenger's body weight and chest size

Explanation:

Finding a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) for a passenger requires you to find a PFD which fits the person properly for his/her required weight. There are three categories of sizes:

Men's size varies from small to 3x large where the chest size varies and the weight of the person is over 90 lbs or 41 kg

Ladies size varies from x small to x large where the chest size varies and the weight of the person is over 90 lbs or 41 kg

Kids weight varies from 90 lbs or 41 kg to 30 lbs or 14 kg

The PFD need to snugly fit to the person's body. So, to get the best fit you need to find the weight of the person and the corresponding chest size.

A diamond with a mass of 45 g hangs motionless from a chain. what is the upward force of the chain on the diamond?
ololo11 [35]
The upward force of the chain on the diamond would be the tension in the chain, and this tension would have to support the weight of the 45g that hangs from the chain.

mass = 45 g = 45/1000 kg = 0.045kg

Weight = mg = 0.045 * 10 ≈ 0.45N,            g ≈ 10 m/s²

<span>So the upward force is ≈ </span><span>0.45N. </span>

one car moving in a straight line covers one third distance in 20km/h and rest in 60km/h . find the average speed
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

36 km/h

Explanation:

If d is the total distance, then the time spent driving at 20 km/h is:

t₁ = (d/3) / 20

t₁ = d / 60

And the time spent driving at 60 km/h is:

t₂ = (2d/3) / 60

t₂ = d / 90

So the total time is:

t = t₁ + t₂

t = d/60 + d/90

t = d/36

The average speed is the total distance divided by total time:

s = d / t

s = d / (d/36)

s = 36

The average speed is 36 km/h.

calculate the kinetic energy of a 820 kg compact car moving at 23 m/s.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

216,890 J

Explanation:

We first define the Kinetic Energy Formula:

K.E =

\frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}

where m is the mass of the object in kg, and v is the velocity in m/s.

Given from the information from the question, we substitute the values in to find K.E.

K.E of car =

\frac{1}{2} (820) {(23)}^{2}  \\  = 216890 \: joules

Note that the SI unit for Energy is Joules or J.
