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.

What effect does the vertical acceleration have on the horizontal velocity of the projectile?
KengaRu [80]
Answer:
None, if air resistance is ignored.

Explanation:
At any instant, the projectile has vertical and horizontal components of velocity.
Vertical acceleration due to gravity affects the vertical velocity by accelerating the object toward the center of the earth, and by decreasing the upward vertical velocity.. 
The horizontal component of velocity makes the object travel horizontally as long as the projectile is airborne.
Thsi discussion assumes that air resistance is ignored.

What determines how soon one action potential can follow another?
belka [17]
It is through biopsychological feedback. 

A class of chemical called a neurotransmitter is important in the transmission of nerve impulses. Neurotransmitters are packaged by the cell into small, membrane-bound sacs called vesicles. Upon receiving a chemical signal, the vesicles move toward the cell membrane and fuse with it, releasing the enclosed neurotransmitters from the terminal end of the nerve cell.

11m if you add 6+5 you get 11 but of course you need the “m” in the mix so 11m but correct me if I’m wrong.
