Answer:
Due to the resistance of air, a drag force acts on a falling body (parachute) to slow down its motion. Without air resistance, or drag, objects would continue to increase speed until they hit the ground. The larger the object, the greater its air resistance. Parachutes use a large canopy to increase air resistance. Also, Once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity. The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down.

The coefficient of friction must be 0.196
Explanation:
For a car moving on a circular track, the frictional force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the car in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:
where the term on the left is the frictional force acting between the tires of the car and the road, while the term on the right is the centripetal force. The various terms are:
is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road
m is the mass of the car
is the acceleration of gravity
v is the speed of the car
r is the radius of the curve
In this problem,
r = 750 m is the radius
is the speed
And solving for
, we find the coefficient of friction required to keep the car in circular motion:

Answer:
r = 58.44 [m]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation that relates the centripetal acceleration with the tangential velocity and the radius of rotation.
a = v²/r
where:
a = centripetal acceleration = 15.4 [m/s²]
v = tangential speed = 30 [m/s]
r = radius or distance [m]
r = v²/a
r = 30²/15.4
r = 58.44 [m]
