<span>The force of gravity between a planet and a person or object on
its surface is called the person or object's weight on that planet.

The planet's weight on the person or object is exactly the same number,
because gravity always acts as an equal pair of forces ... one in each direction.

A parachutist falls 50.0 m without friction. When the parachute opens, he slows down at a rate of 67 m/s*2. If he reaches the gr

KIM [24]

Answer:

3.49 seconds

3.75 seconds

-43200 ft/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 50=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{50\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=3.19\ s$

Time the parachutist falls without friction is 3.19 seconds

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 50+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=31.32\ m/s$

Speed of the parachutist when he opens the parachute 31.32 m/s. Now, this will be considered as the initial velocity

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 11=31.32+9.81t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{11-31.32}{-67}=0.3\ s$

So, time the parachutist stayed in the air was 3.19+0.3 = 3.49 seconds

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times t^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{s}{2}=u1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2$

Now the initial velocity of the last half height will be the final velocity of the first half height.

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=at$

Since the height are equal

$\frac{1}{2}at^2=u1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}at^2=at1.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.1^2\\\Rightarrow 0.5t^2-1.1t-0.605=0\\\Rightarrow 500t^2-1100t-605=0$

$t=\frac{11\left(1+\sqrt{2}\right)}{10},\:t=\frac{11\left(1-\sqrt{2}\right)}{10}\\\Rightarrow t=2.65, -0.45$

Time taken to fall the first half is 2.65 seconds

Total time taken to fall is 2.65+1.1 = 3.75 seconds.

When an object is thrown with a velocity upwards then the velocity of the object at the point to where it was thrown becomes equal to the initial velocity.

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-240^2}{2\times \frac{8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow a=-43200\ ft/s^2$

Magnitude of acceleration is -43200 ft/s²

Hans Langseth's beard measured 5.33 m in 1927. Consider two charges, q1 = 2.42 nC and an unspecified charge, q2, are separated 5

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

-7.89 * 10^(-9) C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

q1 = 2.42 nC = 2.42 * 10^(-9) C

Distance between q1 and q2 = 5.33 m

q3 = 1.0 nC = 1 * 10^(-9) C

Distance between q1 and q3 = 1.9 m

Distance between q2 and q3 = 5.33 - 1.9 = 3.43 m

The net force acting on q3 is:

F = F(q1, q3) + F(q2, q3)

F = (k*q1*q3)/1.9² + (k*q2*q3)/3.43²

F = (9 * 10^(9) * 2.42 * 10^(-9) * 1 * 10^(-9))/3.61 + (9 * 10^(9) * q2 * 1 * 10^(-9))/11.7649

F = 6.033 * 10^(-9) + 0.765*q2

If the net force is zero:

0 = 6.033 * 10^(-9) + 0.765*q2

-0.765*q2 = 6.033 * 10^(-9)

=> q2 = -[6.033 * 10^(-9)]/0.765

q2 = -7.89 * 10^(-9) C
