Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space?

Answer: lth air resistance acting on an object that has been dropped, the object will eventually reach a terminal velocity, which is around 53 m/s (195 km/h or 122 mph) for a human skydiver (on the moon, the gravitational acceleration is much less on earth, approximately 1.6 m/s2.)

Answer:

There is no gravity in outer space so how will any object fall in the first place

Also the principle of terminal velocity is limited to free fall where the acceleration is equal to the gravity of the planet

What is the least force you could exert on the refrigerator to move it?

Ulleksa [173]

<span>If the refrigerator weights 1365 and you are not exerting any vertical force on it, then the normal force is also 1365N. so Fn=1365

Fsf = Static frictional force = (coefficient of static friction) * (Normal force)

So the least for you could exert to move it is equal to the Fsf.
Fsf = (0.49)(1365N)</span><span>

Using evidence from the article, defend the concept that Earth’s magnetic poles have swapped places over time.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer: Scientists found evidence of Earths magnetic field reversal in rocks on the ocean floor at plate boundaries. These rocks have alternating polarity due to magnetization that occurred during their cooling period. Using radio metric dating, scientist estimate that reversals occur approximately every several hundred thousand years.
