"A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second. What is this rate in feet per second? At this rate, how m

any feet will the parachutist fall during 20 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers."
I'm suppose to find the rate in ft/s AND "distance in 20 seconds" in ft.

If anyone can help break this down for me, I'd greatly appreciate it. :)

Answer:

a)264 feet/ second

b)5280 feet during 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 80 meters per second.

Convert the rate in feet per second

We are given that meter is equal to 3.3 feet

So, So, rate in feet per second = 80 \times 3.3 = 264 feet/ second

So, parachutist fall in 1 second = 264 feet

Parachutist fall in 20 second = 264 \times 20 = 5280 feet

Hence the parachutist will fall 5280 feet during 20 seconds of free fall

Assuming 70 m/s is terminal velocity

1 meter = 3.3 ft 

so 70 meters = 231 

231 ft/s


231 x 5 = 1155ft

Cp ps unit 8A: Motion distance and displacement lab activity
bazaltina [42]

The difference from distance and displacement is <u>the direction</u>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Distance is a scalar quantity that indicates the length of the trajectory that is traveled by an object within a certain interval. Distance has no direction, only has magnitude

Can be simplified distance = total meters traveled

displacement is a vector quantity that shows changes in the position of objects in a certain interval of time. Displacement has magnitude and direction

Can be simplified displacement = distanced traveled from starting point to ending point

Some examples of distanced and displacement

1. first move: move 4 meters north

second move: move 2 meters south

Distanced: 6 meters

Displacement: 2 meters north

2. first move: move 2 meters east

second move: move 4 meters west

Distanced: 6 meters

Displacement: 2 meters west

etc

Pick the expression that matches this description:
inysia [295]

Answer: Choice D,  -5x^3 + 8

A binomial consists of two terms being added or subtracted. The two terms are -5x^3 and 8. The term -5x^3 has a leading coefficient -5 and exponent 3. The largest exponent determines the degree of the polynomial. The 8 is constant as there are no variables attached or multiplying with it.

A cylindrical container with a radius of 5 cm and a height of 14 cm is completely filled with liquid. Some of the liquid from th
Flura [38]

Answer:

The remaining liquid has a volume of 345.4 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we first need to calculate the volume of each container.

Cylindrical:

Volume = h*pi*r² = 14*3.14*(5)² = 1099 cm³

Cone:

Volume = (1/3)*h*pi*r² = (1/3)*20*3.14*(6)² = 753.6 cm³

Since the liquid from the cylinder was transfered to the cone until the latter was full, then what remains in the cylinder is it's original volume minus the cone volume. So we have:

remaining liquid = 1099 - 753.6 = 345.4 cm³

A triangle has one angel that measures 51 degrees and one angle that measures 39 degrees. what kind of triangle is it?
Lostsunrise [7]
Those two angles are complementary - which means they both give us 90 degrees. We know that all three angles in any triangle must be exactly 180 degrees, so the third angle will be 180 - 90 = 90 degrees. It means that our triangle is a straight triangle. The figure will look more less like in the attachment. <span> </span>
