Jack tries to place magnets on his refrigerator at home, but they won’t stick. What could be the reason?

The most probable reason why the magnets won't stick on the refrigerator is that the body of the refrigerator and the magnets have like poles. If both have negative or both have positive poles facing each other, they will repel. In principle, magnets are attracted to opposite poles and like poles repel.

A 72-kg skydiver is falling from 10000 feet. At an instant during the fall, the skydiver

Answer:

Approximately $2.31\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ (assuming that the acceleration due to gravity is $g = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .)

Explanation:

Assuming that $g = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ the weight on this 72-kg skydiver would be $W = m \cdot g = 72 \; \rm kg \times 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} = 706.32\; \rm N$ (points downwards.)

Air resistance is supposed to act in the opposite direction of the motion. Since this skydiver is moving downwards, the air resistance on the skydiver would point upwards.

Therefore, the net force on this skydiver should be the difference between the weight and the air resistance on the skydiver:

$\begin{aligned}F(\text{net force}) &= W - F(\text{air resistance})\\ &= 706.32\; \rm N - 540\; \rm N =166.32\; \rm N \end{aligned}$ .
