Physics
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Gravity: downwards

Air drag and air-pressure on the inner surface of the the parachute: Upwards

Explanation:

  • If a sky-diver is in the final stages of his descend with open parachute such that the wind is calm and it does not blows him laterally.
  • In such a condition the air resistance in the form of drag and the pressure force due to the air captured in the parachute are acting in the upward direction which balance the force of gravity on the body. But this situation may occur momentarily and then again the diver must begin to slowly descend.

It takes 160 kj of work to accelerate a car from 24.0 m/s to 27.5 m/s. what is the car's mass?
ankoles [38]
Work-Energy :W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
Vo = 24.0 m/s Initial speed 
 Vf = 27.5 m/s  Final speed 

W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
160 kj = 1/ 2 m ( 27.5^2  -24.0 ^2)
160kj =  4680 x m
convert kilo joules to jeoules                     160000 j = 4689 xm
m = 160000 j/4689
m = 34.18 kg

When two forces are acting a body in opposite direction their resultant become 6N and when they are acting in the same direction
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

9 and 3 N

Explanation:

Forces in the same direction sum up to produce the resultant force;

One force subtract the other will give the resultant force when they are in opposite directions;

Lets say one direction is forwards and the opposite backwards;

We have one force, let's say force A, in the forwards direction and another force, force B, acting in the same (forwards) or opposite (backwards) direction;

If B is acting in the same direction, then the resultant force (in this case) will be as follows:

A + B = 12

If B is acting in the opposite direction, then the resultant force will be as follows:
A - B = 6

Summing the two equations will allow us to solve for A:

A + B + (A - B) = 12 + 6

2A = 18

A = 9

Substitute this into either of the above equations and we can solve for B:
(9) - B = 6

B = 9 - 6

B = 3

An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kg · m2when her arms are outstretched, and at this time she is spinning at 3.0 rev/
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial Moment of Inertia I_1=5 kg-m^2

initial Spin N_1=3 rev/s

\omega _1=2\pi N_1=2\pi 3=6\pi rad/s

Final Moment Moment of Inertia I_2=2 kg-m^2

Conserving Angular momentum

L_1=L_2

I_1\omega _1=I_2\omega _2

5\times 6\pi=2\times \omega _2

\omega _2=15\pi rad/s

N_2=\frac{\omega _2}{2\pi }

N_2=\frac{15\pi }{2\pi}=7.5 rev/s

State any two effects of gravitational force ​
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The effect of gravity extends from each object out into space in all directions, and for an infinite distance. However, the strength of the gravitational force reduces quickly with distance. Humans are never aware of the Sun's gravity pulling them because the pull is so small at the distance between the Earth and Sun.
