Answer:

When a balloon is inflated, the pressure inside the ballon is greater than the pressure outside the balloon. When let go of (or when the balloon is open), the air is released as there is no long a difference in pressure between outside the balloon and inside the balloon. This results in a force in the opposite direction due to the escaping air that provides the force, which causes it to fly away!

Hope this helps :)

What causes the ballon to fly away is the air pushing out of the balloon also tied in with air pressure

If the baseball and the plastic ball were moving at the same speed which ball would hit a bat harder

Lerok [7]

A baseball would hit the bat harder. This is because the baseball is a lot heavier and more dense than the plastic ball. The keyword that you're looking for is density. The baseball is dense.

The parachutists are not hurt when they jump out of an airplane, why?

Darya [45]

When the parachute deploys it increases the persons air resistance to (temporaily) greater than the force of weight. This causes them to decellerate. As they decellerate resistance decreases again until once again it balances out. Terminal velocity is reduced to a safe level, and landing without injury is possible.

A large meteoroid enters the Earth's atmosphere at a speed of 20.0 km/s and is not significantly slowed before entering the ocea

Shalnov [3]

The shock wave from the meteoroid in the lower atmosphere has a Mach angle of 0.948°.

(a) The meteoroid's speed $v_s=20 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{s}$

$=20 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$

Air sound wave speed $&v=331 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\$

Speed of the shock wave in Mach $&\qquad \theta=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{v}{v_s}\right)$

$\begin{aligned}&=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{331 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}{20 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}\right) \\&=0.948^{\circ}\end{aligned}$

Hence, 0.948° is the Mach angle of the shock wave from the meteoroid in the lower atmosphere.

<h3>What is the speed of the meteoroid?</h3>

A meteoroid's speed can be loosely broken down into three categories: slow, medium, and fast.

Slow meteors move around the sun at a leisurely pace of about 32 kilometers per second (20 miles per second).
Medium-speed meteors travel around the sun at approximately 50 kilometers per second (30 miles per second),
while fast meteors zoom past at over 120 kilometers per second (75 miles per second)!
