Answer:

86.4 N downward

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and acceleration of a body.

The S.I unit of Force is Newton(N).

The Expression of force is given as,

F = ma ................ Equation 1

Where F = force of the parachute harness, m = mass of the skydiver, a = acceleration of the skydiver.

Given: m = 72 kg, a = 1.2 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

F = 72(1.2)

F = 86.4 N down ward.

Hence the force on the parachute harness = 86.4 N downward

Difference between male and female gamete​
Inga [223]

Answer:

The male gamete is smaller in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete is conical from the front while the female gamete is spherical.

The cytoplasm in the male gamete is less in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete can move with the help of the tail while the female gametes are immobile and do not have any tail or flagella present.

The number of mitochondria present in the sperm is less than the number of mitochondria present in the ovum.

The male gamete has acrosome present in the head region that contains enzymes for dissolving the membranes present around the ovum. The ovum does not contain such digestive enzymes.

A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 255 km at an angle 49.0 o north of west. Part A: In which direction must i
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx
