A skydiver falls toward the ground at a constant velocity. Which statement best applies Newton’s laws of motion to explain the s

kydiver’s motion? An upward force balances the downward force of gravity on the skydiver. The skydiver’s inertia is zero, which no longer allows for acceleration. An unbalanced force pulls the skydiver toward the ground. The mass of the skydiver is so great that there is no acceleration

Answer:

The answer is (a.) An upward force balances the downward force gravity on the skydiver

The skydiver is falling at a constant velocity because the upward force is balancing the downward force of gravity. According to Newton, the opposite force balance each other. This is stated in Newton's second law of motion.

Sam is playing football. She kicks the ball with an average force of 75 N.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

22.5J

Explanation:

Here the force is given. Also, the displacement is given as 30cm.

First we should check if all the values are in their standard form.

Here 30cm should be converted to metre by dividing it with 100.

Which would give us 0.3m

Now we use the equation W=force x displacement =75 x 0.3=22.5J

I hope this satisfies you. If u have any further questions please let me know.

I hope u will follow me and make this the brainliest answer.

Calculate the potential energy of a 5 kg object sitting at the top of a 2 meter ramp.
trapecia [35]
The formula used to find potential energy is <em>P.E. = M * G * H</em> (P.E. is potential energy, M is mass, G is gravitational pull, and H is height). So the answer to your question is <em>5 * 9.8 * 2</em>, which equals 98.

Two friends leave a movie theater and take different busses to the same ice cream shop. one bus takes a longer route driving on
irinina [24]

The friend who has the greater displacement is the one who takes the longest path.

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

The displacement is the shortest distance travelled by the particle. It is the vector quantity which re[presents both the magnitude and direction.

Given, two friends leave a movie theater and take different buses to the same ice cream shop. One bus takes a longer route driving on a high-speed highway, while the other takes a shorter route on lower-speed local roads.

According to the definition. the displacement is neither larger not shorter but it is the shortest distance traveled by the person or particle.

Thus, friend who has longer path has larger displacement.

if you use the compound pulley, you will need to pull twice the distance but with less force. the force you need is equal to one
algol13

Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort
