The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, a=0

and F=ma=0

so, W = F + U ....................(1)

when it is ascending let the weight that it is releasing is R, so

(W-R) + F = U..........(2)

solving equation (1) and (2)

(W-R)+F=W-F

R=2F            

2F is the weight of material that must be released from the balloon so that it ascends vertically at the same constant speed.

How are scientists monitoring and studying the effects on the herring?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:In the decades prior to 1993 there was a robust Pacific herring population in Prince William Sound (PWS). Not only are these forage fish a key link in the complex food web of PWS, but they supported a lucrative early-season commercial fishery that brought the communities of the Sound to life each spring. By 1994, that fishery was closed and only briefly reopened for two years in the late 1990s. The current, approximately 10,000-ton biomass, is tiny compared to the peak value of 130,000 tons or the long-term average prior to the collapse of around 65,000 ton.

A penny is dropped off the top of the Stratosphere from rest and falls freely with the
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

S = 122.5m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Time, t = 5 seconds

Since it's a free fall, initial velocity, u = 0

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion given by the formula;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Where;

  • S represents the displacement or height measured in meters.
  • u represents the initial velocity measured in meters per seconds.
  • t represents the time measured in seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

S = 0*5 + \frac {1}{2}*(9.8)*5^{2}

S = 0 + 4.9*25

S = 122.5m.
