The watermelon is heaviest, followed by the soccer ball, golf ball and ping pong ball. How does the weight of an object relate t

Illusion [34]3 years ago

Answer:

It doesn’t really relate

Explanation:

heavier load the parachute must be moving faster to match the downward force of the greater load

and approx terminal velocity when the parachute is open

velocity for Ping pong ball with parachute = 9m/s

velocity for Soccer ball with parachute = 15m/s

velocity for Golf ball with parachute =24m/s

velocity for Watermelon with parachute = 25m/s

so weight of an object doesn’t really realted how fast it falls with a parachute

11. A vector M is 15.0 cm long and makes an angle of 20° CCW from x axis and another vector N is 8.0 cm long and makes an angle
Alja [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant vector is 22.66 cm and it has a direction of 29.33°

Explanation:

To find the resultant vector, you first calculate x and y components of the two vectors M and N. The components of the vectors are calculated by using cos and sin function.

For M vector you obtain:

M=M_x\hat{i}+M_y\hat{j}\\\\M=15.0cm\ cos(20\°)\hat{i}+15.0cm\ sin(20\°)\hat{j}\\\\M=14.09cm\ \hat{i}+5.13\ \hat{j}

For N vector:

N=N_x\hat{i}+N_y\hat{j}\\\\N=8.0cm\ cos(40\°)\hat{i}+8.0cm\ sin(40\°)\hat{j}\\\\N=6.12cm\ \hat{i}+5.142\ \hat{j}

The resultant vector is the sum of the components of M and N:

F=(M_x+N_x)\hat{i}+(M_y+N_y)\hat{j}\\\\F=(14.09+6.12)cm\ \hat{i}+(5.13+5.142)cm\ \hat{j}\\\\F=20.21cm\ \hat{i}+10.27cm\ \hat{j}

The magnitude of the resultant vector is:

|F|=\sqrt{(20.21)^2+(10.27)^2}cm=22.66cm

And the direction of the vector is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{10.27}{20.21})=29.93\°

hence, the magnitude of the resultant vector is 22.66 cm and it has a direction of 29.33°

Does the mass of a parachute affect terminal velocity?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The greater weight increases the terminal velocity by acting as an extra force against gravity and air resistance.

An object is 39 cm away from a concave mirrors surface along the principles axis. If the mirrors focal length is 9.50 cm, how fa
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

12.6 cm

Explanation:

We can use the mirror equation to find the distance of the image from the mirror:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}

where here we have

f = 9.50 cm is the focal length

p = 39 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

Solving the equation for q, we find:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{9.50 cm}-\frac{1}{39 cm}=0.080 cm^{-1}\\q = \frac{1}{0.080 cm}=12.6 cm
