Answer: Air resistance would be 625Newton

Explanation: For small object the air resistance is directly proportional to the velocity that is if you triple the Velocity the air resistance is also tripled.

But for large object like ball and human the air resistance is proportional to the square of the Velocity that is V². So in this case the velocity given is 90km/h which is also 25 m/s.

So the air resistance on Suzie would be the square of the Velocity which is 25² = 625N

<span>Weight of the skydiver m = 500 N
Terminal velocity V = 90 km/h
Here the weight of the person acts as the force, so based on the Newton's third law the applied is the force what we but in the opposite direction making the resistance. So the air resistance exerted on Suzie will be her weight that is 500N</span>

Answer:

conservative

Explanation:

Nonconservative force is the force that depends on a path, however conservative does not depend on a path and it is not associated with the potential energy. When the work is done by an unconservative force, mechanical energy is added or removed. Friction is the best example for a non-conservative force. When these non-conservative forces are acting, the mechanical energy changes but these are not preserved.

Which causes some genetic disorders and genetic diseases?

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

A genetic disorder is a disease caused in whole or in part by a change in the DNA sequence away from the normal sequence. Genetic disorders can be caused by a mutation in one gene (monogenic disorder), by mutations in multiple genes (multifactorial inheritance disorder), by a combination of gene mutations and environmental factors, or by damage to chromosomes (changes in the number or structure of entire chromosomes, the structures that carry genes).

Alex73 [517]

Your bedroom has a rectangular shape, and you want to measure its area. You use a tape that is precise to 0.001 and find that the shortest wall in the room is 3.547 long. The tape, however, is too short to measure the length of the second wall, so you use a second tape, which is longer but only precise to 0.01 . You measure the second wall to be 4.79 long. Which of the following numbers is the most precise estimate that you can obtain from your measurements for the area of your bedroom?

b)If your bedroom has a circular shape, and its diameter measured 6.32 , which of the following numbers would be the most precise value for its area?

a)30 m^2

b) 31.4 m^2

c)31.37 m^2

d)31.371 m^2

Answer:

Part A

$A = 16.99 \ m^2$
