Answer:

As the skydiver falls to the Earth, she experiences positive acceleration only due to gravity.

Explanation:

As the skydiver falls to the Earth, she experiences friction in the form of air resistance which tries to slow her down and is proportional to the her velocity. So it cannot have a positive acceleration as it acts in opposite direction to slow her down.

Inertia during skydiving is experienced when we open an parachute, the parachute slows down the speed of are descent hence changing our inertia of motion with a velocity.

Only the Earth's, gravitational field has an positive acceleration as it pulls us towards the Earth, hence increasing our velocity.

Does someone know how to do math with that equation

mestny [16]

Answer:

f = 5 cm

Explanation:

using the thin lens equation, given as follows:

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o}}+\frac{1}{d_{i}}\\$

where,

f = focal length = ?

do = the distance of object from lens = 20 cm

di = the distance of image from lens = 6.6667 cm

Therefore,

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{20\ cm}+\frac{1}{6.6667\ cm}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = 0.199999\ cm^{-1}\\\\f = \frac{1}{0.199999\ cm^{-1}}\\\\$

f = 5 cm

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

B4 the tackle:

The linebacker's momentum = 115 x 8.5 = 977.5 kg m/s north 

and the halfback's momentum = 89 x 6.7 = 596.3 kg m/s east 

After the tackle they move together with a momentum equal to the vector sum of their separate momentums b4 the tackle 

The vector triangle is right angled: 

magnitude of final momentum = √(977.5² + 596.3²) = 1145.034 kg m/s 

so (115 + 89)v(f) = 1145.034 ←←[b/c p = mv] 

v(f) = 5.6 m/s (to 2 sig figs) 

direction of v(f) is the same as the direction of the final momentum 

so direction of v(f) = arctan (596.3 / 977.5) = N 31° E (to 2 sig figs) 

so the velocity of the two players after the tackle is 5.6 m/s in the direction N 31° E 

btw ... The direction can be given heaps of different ways ... N 31° E is probably the easiest way to express it when using the vector triangle to find it

A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The period of the motion will still be equal to T.

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }$

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.
