The "weight" of any object IS the force of <em>gravity</em> between the object and the Earth.

The force is always directed "down", because it's always directed toward the center of the Earth, and we call that direction "down" even though it's a different direction in every place.

510 g squirrel with a surface area of 935 cm2 falls from a 4.8-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use the dr
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The terminal velocity is v_t  =17.5 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The mass of the squirrel is  m_s  =  50\ g  =  \frac{50}{1000} =  0.05 \  kg

      The surface area is   A_s =  935 cm^2  =  \frac{935}{10000} = 0.0935 \ m^2

       The height of fall is  h =4.8 m

        The length of the prism is l =  23.2 = 0.232 \ m

          The width of the prism is w =  11.6 =  0.116 \ m

 

The terminal velocity is mathematically represented as

       v_t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 * m_s *  g }{\dho_s * C  * A } }

Where \rho  is the density of a rectangular prism with a constant values of \rho  =  1.21 \ kg/m^3

            C is the drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver with a value = 1

            A  is the area of the prism the squirrel is assumed to be which is mathematically represented as

      A =  0.116 * 0.232

       A =  0.026912 \ m^2

 substituting values

      v_t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 * 0.510 *  9.8 }{1.21 * 1  * 0.026912 } }

     v_t  =17.5 \ m/s

PLS SHOW WORK !!!!!!! ASAP
Lynna [10]

Answer:

1- For the track B. The potential energy is the same for the two cars, but because of the slope of the track, the car B earn kinetic energy faster. The gravitation acceleration of the cars will be g•sinθ, and the angle of the track B will have a bigger value for sinθ

2- The conservation of energy applies because the roller coaster is a closed track. When a car climb the track, it earn GPE, which is given by mgh, when it get down in the track, it transform GPE in KE, which is given in 1/2mv².

3-

Position of car (m) GPE KE GPE + KE

top (30m) 60000 0 60000

bottom (0m) 0 60000 60000

halfway down (15m) 30000 30000 60000

three-quarters way down 15000 45000 60000

How does state-dependence impact memory recall?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The state of the person under the influence of alcohol

The place in which the memory was initially encoded for the retrieval of information.

Retrieval of information is generally better given similar rather than different contextual cues Motivational and emotional factors

These are also likely to affect recall and forgetting.
