A falling skydiver has a mass of 105 kg. What is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration when the upward force of air resis

LenKa [72]

F-free = m*g - F_air = m*a

F_air = 1.2 * m

a= (105 kg * 9.8 m.s^2 - 5*105) / 105 kg

a = 9.3 m/s

base your answer to this question on the information below and on your knowledge of physics. A toy launcher that is used to laun

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: v = 2.24 m/s

Explanation: The Law of Conservation of Energy states that total energy is constant in any process and, it cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed.

So, in the toy launcher, the energy of the compressed spring, called Elastic Potential Energy (PE), transforms into the movement of the plastic sphere, called Kinetic Energy (KE). Since total energy must be constant:

$KE_{i}+PE_{i}=KE_{f}+PE_{f}$

where the terms with subscript i are related to the initial of the process and the terms with subscript f relates to the final process.

The equation is calculated as:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}+0=0+\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}50(0.1)^{2}=\frac{1}{2}(0.1)v^{2}$

$v^{2}=\frac{50(0.1)^{2}}{0.1}$

$v=\sqrt{50(0.1)}$

$v=\sqrt{5}$

v = 2.24

The maximum speed the plastic sphere will be launched is 2.24 m/s.

Wha is the frequency of a wave having a period equal to 18 seconds?

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

5.5 × 10-2 hertz

Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

= 0.055 per second (1 cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 X 10^{-2} hertz.

Which of the following are possible causes of mass extinctions that scientists have identified

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

over harvesting, pollution, introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors

Explanation:

The main cause of mass extinction is Humans cause extinction of a species through overharvesting. The second main cause is pollution ., introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors, habitat destruction, overhunting and other influences. Another very important cause of mass extinction is the unsustainable human population growth.

The five mass extinction events are

Ordovician Mass Extinction

Devonian Mass Extinction

Permian Mass Extinction

Triassic -Jurassic Mass Extinction

and Cretaceous -Tertiary (or the K-T) Mass Extinction.
