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.

An electromagnetic flowmeter is useful when it is desirable not to interrupt the system in which the fluid is flowing (e.g. for
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

<em>2 m/s</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The electromagnetic flow-metre work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The induced voltage is given as

E = Blv

where E is the induced voltage = 2.88 mV = 2.88 x 10^-3 V

l is the distance between the electrodes in this field which is equivalent to the diameter of the tube = 1.2 cm = 1.2 x 10^-2 m

v is the velocity of the fluid through the field = ?

B is the magnetic field = 0.120 T

substituting, we have

2.88 x 10^-3 = 0.120 x 1.2 x 10^-2 x v

2.88 x 10^-3 = 1.44 x 10^-3 x v

v = 2.88/1.44 = <em>2 m/s</em>

how did we discover how to brake the sound barior and why did we not go as fast as the speed of light
quester [9]

The problem of the "sound barrier" has to do with moving through
air, and the things the air does when you try to push it out of the
way faster than the speed of sound.  Moving through air faster
than sound was an engineering and technological problem, not
a scientific one.

Concerning light, that's about 874 thousand times faster.
