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.
Impulse = change in momentum
The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)
Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)
Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s
To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .
Where are the questions so that I can deliver a more accurate answer.
Answer:
C. a full outer shell of valence electrons.
Explanation:
The noble gases has a full outer shell so they don't have to react with other elements to gain or loose electrons (to have a full outer shell and be stable).
Its true hopefully this helps you.
