Give a qualitative description of the skydiver's motion after jumping out of the plane.​
umka2103 [35]

Explanation:

They will have not much control over their speed or rotational energy. they will carry a lot of gravitation potential energy which will get converted to kinetic energy as they fall through the atmosphere. They will reach their terminal velocity, the fastest they can travel with earth's gravity before they pull their parachute, when they use a parachute to extend their surface area, increasing wind resistance. this allows them to land safely.

At the top of a pole vault, an athlete actually can do work pushing on the pole before releasing it. Suppose the pushing force t
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The work done on the athlete is approximately 2.09 J

Explanation:

From the definition of the work done by a variable force:

\displaystyle{\int_{x_i}^{x_j}F(x)dx}

and substituting with the function of our problem:

\displaystyle{\int_{0}^{0.19}(140x-190x^2)dx\approx2.09\mathrm{J}}

If earth rotated on an axis that was not tilted, how would this affect the seasons?
VARVARA [1.3K]
If earth was not tilted on a axis, we wouldn't have any seasons. we wouldn't have seasons because the axis tilts us towards or away from the sun, and if you're tilted torwards the sun the sun you would have summer. if you're tilted away from the sun, you have winter. if there was no axis, the temperature would be the same all around the earth, so therefore we would not have seasons. 

hopefully this helps
