Answer:

B. the acceleration of a skydiver depends upon the force of gravity and wind resistance

Explanation:

Newtons second law of motion states that: the force (F) acting upon an object is directly proportional to the mass (M) of the object and the acceleration (a).

Basically this law states that the acceleration of a body is dependent on the force and mass of the body. If the force exerted on the body changes the acceleration will also change. and if the mass of the body changes, the acceleration will also be affected

from the options, the only option that refers to acceleration is option B

A car is traveling north with a velocity of 18.1 m/s. Find the velocity of the car after 7.50 seconds if the acceleration is 2.4
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Hello!

Vx = V0x + Ax*t
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4t

Let’s take time as 7.50 seconds:
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4*7.50
Vx = 18.1 + 18 = 36.1 m/s

Then, the final velocity of the car is 36.1 m/s.

stepan [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Analytical people are less responsive to others. They hence tend to focus more on work than people and are less interested in leading, being happier to work by themselves. They may be prudent and systematic, making them good at analytic work.

Some character traits of Analytical people

Focuses on work and working more than people

Likes to be correct and will take time to ensure this

Thoughtful, careful fact-oriented and precise

Good at problem-solving

Likes organization and structure

Avoids working in a group, preferring to work alone

Can be over-critical and unresponsive

Cautious in decision-making

When stressed may withdraw or become headstrong

You are on a train that is traveling at 3.0 m/s along a level straight track. Very near and parallel to the track is a wall that
loris [4]

Questions Diagram is attached below

Answer:

T=2.08s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of Train V=3.0m.s

Angle \theta=12\textdegree

Height of window h_w=0.90m

Width of window w_w=2.0m

The Horizontal distance between B and A from Trigonometric Laws is mathematically given by

 b=\frac{0.9}{tan12}

 b=4.23

Therefore

Distance from A-A

 d_a=2.0+4.23

 d_a=6.23

Therefore

Time Required to travel trough d is mathematically given as

 T=\frac{d_a}{v}

 T=\frac{6.23}{3}

 T=2.08s
