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>

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.
N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

c. hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior

Explanation:

Granulation is the grainy appearance of the solar photosphere produced by the top of the convection cells in the sun.

The grainy appearance are produced by granules on the photosphere of the sun and granules are caused by convection currents of plasma within the sun's convection zone.

The interior of these granules are brighter (and thus hotter) than the exterior of the granules which are darker.

<u>So, the granulation pattern that astronomers have observed on the surface of the Sun tells us that hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior.</u>
