Answer:

the tension T = 916[N]

Explanation:

We need to analyze the sketch that is in the attached image, here we can find the free body diagram with the forces acting over him.

The weight is equal to the product of the mass by the gravity

w = m*g = 78.9[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]

The acceleration given by the helicopter is 1.8 [m/s^2]

The sum of forces on the body must be equal to mass by acceleration.

The only forces acting are the tension of the cable and the weight of man, these forces are equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

What is one result of a chemical change?
nordsb [41]
<span>One result of a chemical change is letter B: A new material is formed. Let us take for example on the paper being burned to ashes. There is a clear use of heat or thermal energy as heat is transferred from the medium to the paper, however, no energy is created, it only transformed to other energy. Materials may change but it could also happen to physical change like ice (which was in solid phase) turning or evaporating to water (liquid phase).</span>

HELP ASAP!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!<br><br> What is the function of mitochondria?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The mitochondria is a cell organelle that provides energy for the cells.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the fundamental or basic functional, structural and smallest unit of life for all living organisms. Some living organisms are unicellular while others are multicellular in nature.

A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.

All living organisms such as plants and animals require energy to function properly (life activities). Thus, the organelle where energy from nutrients is released is generally referred to as mitochondria.

Animals retrieve energy using mitochondria to do cellular respiration because they typically act like a digestive system by taking in nutrients, breaking them down and obtaining energy rich molecules for cell-life activities.

Basically, mitochondria is one of the cell organelles found in all living organisms and it is known as the powerhouse. Therefore, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.
