How do I find the resultant force of a skydiver falling with gravity constant of 10 newtons and his weight is 70 kg??

Physics

Scilla [17]3 years ago
4 0
The forces acting on the skydiver is:
1. Gravity in downward direction
Force = mg = 70*10 = 700 N
2. Air resistance in upward direction
It is negligible.

SO resultant force is the gravity which is 700N in downward direction.

As a mass on a spring moves farther from the equilibrium position, how do the velocity, acceleration, and force change
Umnica [9.8K]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

m =  the mass of the object
x = the distance of the object from the equilibrium position at time t.
v = the velocity of the object at time t
a = the acceleration of the object at time t
A =  the amplitude ( the maximum distance) of the mass from the equilibrium
        position

The oscillatory motion of the object (without damping) is given by
x(t) = A sin(ωt)
where
ω =  the circular frequency of the motion
T =  the period of the motion so that ω = (2π)/T

The velocity and acceleration are respectively
v(t) = ωA cos(ωt)
a(t) = -ω²A sin(ωt)

In the equilibrium position,
x is zero;
v is maximum;
a is zero.

At the farthest distance (A) from the equilibrium position,
x is maximum;
v is zero;
a is zero.

In the graphs shown, it is assumed (for illustrative purposes) that
A = 1 and T = 1.

7. Which best describes the energy change th pushes a large rock down a hill?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.

A gardener uses a 60-N wheelbarrow to transport two bags of fertilizer weighing W = 252-N. Determine the maximum allowable horiz
Butoxors [25]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the maximum allowable horizontal distance be represented by "d".  

Therefore, torque equation about A will be as follows.

   60 \times 0.15 + 252 \times 0.15 \times 2 + 252 \times d = 2 \times 75 \times (0.7 + 0.15 + 0.15)

      d = \frac{[2 \times 75 \times (0.7+0.15+0.15) - 60 \times 0.15 - 252 \times 0.15 \times 2]}{252}

       d = 0.409 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum allowable horizontal distance from the axle A of the wheelbarrow to the center of gravity of the second bag if she can hold only 75 N with each arm is 0.409 m.

KIM [24]
There are four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Solid has a shape and volume of its own. A liquid takes the shape of the container does not occupy entirely the volume of the container.  For gas, it takes the shape of the container as well as taking the volume of the container. In this case, if the system is only composed of gas, the statement given is true.
