Answer:

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.

Explanation:

When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank is 0.0189 m

Explanation:

Given data:

d = inside diameter = 8.1 m

P = internal pressure = 1.26 MPa

σ = 270 MPa

factor of safety = 2

Question: Determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank, tmin = ?

The allow factor of safety:

$\sigma _{a} =\frac{\sigma }{factor-of-safety} =\frac{270}{2} =135MPa$

The minimun wall thickness:

$t=\frac{Pd}{4\sigma _{a} } =\frac{1.26*8.1}{4*135} =0.0189m$

None can.

A clinical thermometer only measures temperatures above +30°C.

Mercury and alcohol are both frozen solid at -50°C.
