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

Hope it helped you.

A. Acceleration is a wrong answer. Acceleration is the rate of change to in velocity. It involves a change in speed and direction. 

B.  Force is a wrong answer. Force is a directions from push/or pull.

C. Inertia is a correct. Inertia is a tendency of an object to stay at the rest or preserve its state of motion.

D. Velocity is a incorrect answer. Velocity is the placement of an object during a specific unit of time. It has two measurements are needed to determine velocity.

Light bending at a boundary is caused by differences in the speed of light in different materials. The greater the difference in
olasank [31]

Answer:

How much does light bend? When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.
