IF there is no air resistance, then he could drop a feather, a piece
of Kleenex, a school bus, and a battleship.  If he dropped them all
at the same time from the same height, they would all hit the ground
at the same time.

Assuming there is no air resistance and the experiment took pace in a controlled environment, both the lead ball and the glass ball would hit the ground at the same time.

Falls resulting in hip fractures are a major cause of injury and even death to the elderly. Typically, the hip’s speed at impact
Westkost [7]

Answer:

-5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

0.118909090909 s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{1.3^2-2^2}{2\times 0.02}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529\ m/s^2

Dividing by g

\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{-57.75}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529g

The acceleration is -5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{1.3-2}{-5.8868501529}\\\Rightarrow t=0.118909090909\ s

The time taken is 0.118909090909 s

A 75.0kg teacher (including the parachute) is skydiving! As the parachute opens, the system experiences a 1000N drag.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Net force = 250 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a teacher, m = 75 kg

As the parachute opens, the system experiences a 1000N drag.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the teacher. 2 forces are acting on her i.e. drag force and weight.

Net force,

F = mg-D

= 75(10)-1000

= -250 N

Hence, the net force is 250 N and it is acting in the upward direction.

What is the force required to lift the balloon with
Olin [163]

No force is required to lift that balloon. In fact, force is required to hold it down, and if you let go, it's up, up, and away.

Since the balloon's density is less than the density of the air around it, it's lighter than the air it displaces, there is a net upward buoyant force acting on it, and it floats up !
