Answer:

The work done is 293.0kJ

Explanation:

<u>Data</u>

  • Mass:   m=92.0kg
  • height:    h=325m
  • acceleration due to gravity:  g=9.81m/s^{2}

Non conservative force act

The work is:

W=ΔKE+ΔPE

KE and PE means kinetic energy and potential energy respectively.

The change in kinetic energy is 0, since the skydiver’s velocity remains constant.

Therefore

W=0+ΔPE

W=ΔPE

W=mgh

substitute the values

W=92.0kg*9.81m/s^{2} *325m\\W=293020J\\W=293.0kJ

A 65kg person throws a 0.045kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 30m/s. A second person, with a mass of 60kg, catches the
asambeis [7]

Answer:

v₁ = 2.48m/s, v₂ = 0.02m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p must be conserved. p = mv

1) First person throwing the snow ball. The momentum before the throw:

p = (65kg + 0.045kg) * 2.5 m/s

The momentum after the throw:

p = 65kg * v₁ + 0.045kg * 30m/s

Solving for the velocity v₁ of person 1:

v₁ = ((65kg + 0.045kg) * 2.5 m/s - 0.045kg * 30m/s) / 65kg = 2.48m/s

2) Second person catching the ball. The momentum before the catch:

p = 0.045kg * 30m/s + 60kg * 0m/s

The momentum after the catch:

p = (60kg + 0.045kg) * v₂

Solving for velocity v₂ of person 2:

v₂ = 0.045kg * 30m/s / (60kg + 0.045kg) = 0.02 m/s

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.
Pepsi [2]
1) The correct answer is
<span>C) The particles are not able to move out of their positions relative to one another, but do have small vibrational movements.
In solids, in fact, particles are bound together so they cannot move freely. However, they can move around their fixed position with small vibrational movements, whose intensity depends on the temperature of the substance (the higher the temperature, the more intense the vibrations). For this reason, we say that matter moves also in solid state.

2)  The correct answer is
</span><span>A) increase the concentration of both solutions
In fact, when we increase the concentration of both solutions, we increase the number of particles that react in both solutions; as a result, the speed of the reaction will increase.

3)  The correct answer is
</span><span>C) gas → liquid → solid
In gases, in fact, particles are basically free to move, so the intermolecular forces of attraction are almost negligible. In liquids, particles are still able to move, however the intermolecular forces of attraction are stronger than in gases. Finally, in solids, particles are bound together, so they are not free to move and the intermolecular forces of attraction are very strong. </span>
