A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?

Physics

Montano1993 [528]3 years ago
6 0

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>

3. A sled is initially given a shove up a frictionless 23.0° incline. It reaches a maximum vertical height 1.22 m higher than wh
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

4.88 m/s

Explanation:

Utilizing the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy at the inclined bottom equals to the potential energy at the top hence

0.5mv^{2}=mgh and making v the subject of the formula then v=\sqrt {2gh} where m represnt the mass of sled, v is the initial speed, g is acceleration due to gravity and h ia the vertical height. Substituting g with 9.81 m/s2 and h with 1.22 then

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.22}\approx 4.88 m/s

You are riding in a hot air balloon that, relative to the ground, has a velocity of 6.0 m/s due east. You see a hawk moving dire
charle [14.2K]

Answer:Velocity = 6.325m/s

Directional angle= 18.43°

Explanation:

Using Right angle triangle

Let Velocity of ballon&hawk be VHB represent the height of the triangle.

Let Velocity of balloon angle ground be VBG represent adjacent of the triangle.

Let Velocity of hawk and ground BE VHG represent the hypothesis.

Theta = opp/Adj= VHB/VBG

using pythagorean

VHG= SQRT(VHB^2+VBG^2)

VHG= sqrt(2^2+6^2)

VHG= sqrt(4+36)

VHG= 6.325m/s

Tan theta= 2/6

Tan theta =0.3333

Tan^-1 0.3333=18.43°

What wave phenomena best describes the reason for the dark and light bands that
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Interference

Explanation:

Interference is the phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a wave with smaller, larger or same amplitude.

There are two types of interference namely, constructive interference and destructive interference.

Constructive interference occurs when the waves are in phase and destructive interference occurs when the waves are out of phase.

In a double slit experiment, the two slits acts as sources of light and thus the waves combine to produce interference patterns. When the waves are in phase, that is the angle between them is 0°, they form a constructive interference pattern which gives rise to a light band. When the waves are out of phase, that is the angle between them is 180°, they form a destructive interference pattern which gives rise to a dark band.

Note also that diffraction patterns are also observed for wide slits but can be neglected for smaller slits.
