Answer:

497.6 N

Explanation:

From the question,

The net force on the skydiver = weight of the skydiver- the resistive force of air

F' = W-F...................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the skydiver, F = resistive force of air.

But,

W = mg................ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the skydiver, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F' = mg-F............ Equation 3

Given: m = 87 kg, F = 355 N, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 3

F' = 87(9.8)-355

F' = 852.6-355

F' = 487.6 N

If a conducting loop of radius 10 cm is onboard an instrument on Jupiter at 45 degree latitude, and is rotating with a frequency
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

a)  fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V,  b) I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A, c)    P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W

Explanation:

This exercise is about Faraday's law

         fem = - \frac{ d \Phi_B}{dt}

where the magnetic flux is

        Ф = B x A

the bold are vectors

        A = π r²

we assume that the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         fem = - B π 2r dr/dt = - 2π B r v

linear and angular velocity are related

        v = w r

        w = 2π f

        v = 2π f r

we substitute

        fem = - 2π B r (2π f r)

        fem = -4π² B f r²

For the magnetic field of Jupiter we use the equatorial field B = 428 10⁻⁶T

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

       f = 2 rev / s (2π rad / 1 rev) = 4π Hz

we calculate

       fem = - 4π² 428 10⁻⁶ 4π 0.10²

       fem = - 16π³ 428 10⁻⁶ 0.010

       fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V

for the current let's use Ohm's law

        V = I R

        I = V / R

         I = -2.1514 10⁻⁴ / 0.00336

         I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A

Electric power is

        P = V I

        P = 2.1514 10⁻⁴ 64.0 10⁻³

        P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W

The greenhouse effect that raises the surface temperature of planets
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Green house effect:

 Temperature of atmosphere is going to  increased continuously, because infrared light absorbed by gas .This increased in temperature atmosphere    is called green house effect.

The green houses gases are as follows

,Carbon diaoxide,water vapor  ,,Carbon diaoxide ,Methane ,,Carbon diaoxide oxide,CFCs ,ozone.

So the option c is correct.
