That 85 kg paratrooper from the 50's was moving at constant speed of 56 m/s because the air was applying a frictional drag force

to him that matched his weight. If he fell this way for 40 m, how much heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J

Answer:

46648 J

Explanation:

mass m= 85 Kg

velocity v = 56 m/s

distance covered s =40 m

According to Question,

frictional drag force to him that matched his weight

\Rightarrow F_d =mg\\=85\times9.81=833 N

Therefore, work done by practometer against the drag force = heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J

W=Q= F_d×s

=833×56 = 46648 J

Traveling at an average rateaverage rate of between 50 and 60 miles per hour for 4 to 7 hours select the best estimate for the d
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

best close estimate distance is 315 miles

Explanation:

given data

speed v1 = 50 miles per hour

speed v2 = 60 miles  per hour

time t1 = 4 hr

time t2 = 7 hr

to find out

best estimate for the distance traveled

solution

we know lower end distance

distance = v1 × t1

distance = 50 × 4 = 200 miles

and

upper end distance

distance = v2 × t2

distance = 60 × 7 = 420 miles

so middle value distance is

v = 55 miles per hour and t = 5.5 hours

distance = v × t  

distance = 55 × 5.5

distance = 302.5 miles

so best close estimate distance is 315 miles

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

a. 4v

Explanation:

Alf moves with speed v

Alf travel during the same amount of time that is Δt = (1/4)s

v = (1/4)s /  Δt = s / 4 Δt

s / Δt  = 4 v

Beth travels a distance s during time Δt,

speed of Beth = s / Δt = 4 v .

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic field is straight up. It is reducing . As per Lenz's law , direction of induced current is such that it opposes the reason which creates it . magnetic field in upper direction is reducing . So current will be such that magnetic field produced by it increases magnetic field in upper direction . In other words , induced current should create magnetic field in upward direction. It is possible when direction of induced current is  anti - clockwise,  when seen from above.
