When you're in an airplane that's 7 miles up off the ground, the strength of gravity plunges to only 99.6 percent of its strength all the way down on the ground.
A big heavy person, who weighs 200 pounds down at the airport, weighs only 199 pounds 4.7 ounces in a plane at the altitude of 7 miles.
The CNS (Central Nervous System) consists of the brain and spinal cord.
Answer:
2.5 m/s
Explanation:
Mechanical energy is the sum of the potential and kinetic energy.
E = PE + KE
E = mgh + ½mv²
172.1 J = (7.26 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (2.1 m) + ½ (7.26 kg) v²
v = 2.5 m/s
If we assume that the acceleration is constant, we can use on the kinematic equations:
Vf = Vi + a*t = 15 + 3*4 = 27 m/s
