Answer:

The larger person will have to get a larger parachute. The answer is D

Explanation:

If the smaller person does nothing, the larger person subsequently accelerate for more time and with larger terminal velocity. In this case the person needs to do something so as to reduce the terminal velocity and can also effectively raise the air resistance. For this reason the person should get a bigger parachute. The air resistance in the opened parachute overwhelms the downward force of the gravity. Whereas the net force as well as the acceleration of the person is upward. The bigger parachute has the ability to grab the greater force. If the parachute, dragging force works in the opposite to that of the force of the gravity, hence the drag force slows the parachute decrease as they fall.

Consider the following types of electromagnetic radiation:
liq [111]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave              Wavelength

(1) Microwave  =   1 m to 1 mm = 10^9 nm to 10^6 nm

(2) Ultraviolet  =    10 nm to 400 nm

(3) Radio waves  =   1 mm to 100 km = 10^6 nm to 10^{14}nm

(4) Infrared  =    700 nm to 1 mm

(5) X-ray  =   0.01 nm to 10 nm

(6) Visible =   400 nm t0 700 nm

a) In order of increasing wavelength:

: 5 < 2 < 6 < 4 < 1 < 3

b) Frequency of the electromagnetic wave given as:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu = frequency

\lambda = Wavelength

c = speed of light

\nu \propto \frac{1}{\lambda }

So, the increasing order of frequency:

: 3 < 1 < 4 < 6 < 2 < 5

c) Energy(E) of the electromagnetic wave is given by Planck's equation :

E=h\nu

E\propto \nu

So, the increasing order of energy:

: 3 < 1 < 4 < 6 < 2 < 5

Answer and work for this problem
MArishka [77]
We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as 
     H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)

We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
     mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) * 
                           (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)                        
                        = 4.056 g H2

We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
     mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
                             (70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
                          = 142.4 g Cl2 

Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.
