Answer:

The resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf

Explanation:

To find the force that acts on a child of 50 lb with a deceleration of 60 g's, we can use the formula:

Force = mass * acceleration

To find the force in lbf, we need to use the mass in lb and the acceleration in g (standard unit of gravity).

So we have that:

Force = 50 * 60

Force = 3000 lbf

So the resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf.

A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal
givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Since, the options are not given the question is incomplete the complete question is as follows.:

Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?

provide a diverse habitat for many organisms

experience changes in amounts of dissolved salts

store and transport the Sun's heat energy

reach depths that can be as much as 12000 meters

Answer: Store and transport the Sun's heat energy.

Explanation:

Oceanic currents are just like a conveyor belt. It helps in transportation of the warm water and the precipitation from the equator to the poles and the cold water in the poles towards the tropics. This way the oceans counteract the uneven distribution of the radiation of sun that reaches upto the surface earth. This will regulate the global climate.
