Answer:

See the explanation below, and the different answers

Explanation:

It is important to clarify that the mass is always preserved, that is, it does not vary regardless of the location of the person, whether the moon, Saturn, Mars. The value that changes is the weight, due to the gravity of each planet.

<u>On Earth</u>

<u />

m = 86[kg]

w = m * g

where:

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81[m/s^2]

w = weight = [N]

w = 86 * 9.81

w = 843.66 [N]

<u>On the Moon</u>

<u />

m = 86[kg]

w = m * g

where:

g = gravity acceleration * (1/6) = 9.81 * (1/6) = 1.635 [m/s^2]

w = weight = [N]

w = 86 * 1.635

w = 140.61 [N]

In a common but dangerous prank, a chair is pulled away as a person is moving downward to sit on it, causing the victim to land
Travka [436]

Answer:

A)247.4kgm/s b) 3299.0N

Explanation:

The potential energy of the victim = mgh where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is height from where the victim fell

Pe = 79*9.81*0.5 = 1/2mv2 (kinetic energy of the motion) v is speed in m/s

v = √9.81 = 3.132m/s

Change in momentum of the victim = m(vi-vf)

Vi is zero and vf is the velocity of impact

Change in momentum = 79*(3.132-0) = 247kgm/s which also the impulse

B) average force x time = impulse = 247

Average force = 247/0.075 = 3299.04N

what are the various ways in which lithospheric plates interact with each other as they move around on a dynamic earth??
Ivan
<span>The plates make up Earth's outer shell, called the lithosphere. (This includes the crust and uppermost part of the mantle.) Churning currents in the molten rocks below propel them along like a jumble of conveyor belts in disrepair. Most geologic activity stems from the interplay where the plates meet or divide.</span>

Describe the forces that act on a skydiver before
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

<em>Before the parachute opens: Immediately on leaving the aircraft, the skydiver accelerates downwards due to the force of gravity. There is no air resistance acting in the upwards direction, and there is a resultant force acting downwards. The skydiver accelerates towards the ground.</em>

<em>Once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity. The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down.</em>
