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>

n electromagnetic wave in vacuum has an electric field amplitude of 611 V/m. Calculate the amplitude of the corresponding magnet

enot [183]

Answer:

The corresponding magnetic field is

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The electric field amplitude is $E_o = 611\ V/m$

Generally the magnetic field amplitude is mathematically represented as

$B_o = \frac{E_o }{c }$

Where c is the speed of light with a constant value

$c = 3.0 *0^{8} \ m/s$

$B_o = \frac{611 }{3.0*10^{8}}$

$B_o = 2.0 4 *10^{-6} \ Vm^{-2} s$

Since 1 T is equivalent to $V m^{-2} \cdot s$

$B_o = 2.0 4 *10^{-6} \ T$

Eddie set up a science experiment with plants. He bought three small tomato plants, all about the same size and height, and set

Elza [17]

Answer:

The frequency of watering

Explanation:

The manipulated variable in this case is the frequency of adding water to the experimental plants.

While the first plant can be said to have a watering frequency of a day, the second had a watering frequency of 2 days while the third plant had a watering frequency of 3 days.

The experiment must have been set up to determine the effects of frequency of watering on the growth of tomato plants.
