F-free = m*g - F_air = m*a

F_air = 1.2 * m

a= (105 kg * 9.8 m.s^2 - 5*105) / 105 kg

a = 9.3 m/s

Hope this helps

  • CMB is the faint cosmic radiation that fills up the universe. It provides important data for understanding early universe.
  • This data tells us about the composition of the universe and its age which raises new questions about the universe.
