If you jumped out of a plane, you would begin speeding up as you fall downward. Eventually, due to wind resistance, your velocit

y would become constant with time. While your velocity is constant, the magnitude of the force of wind resistance is

Answer:

Mg or your weight.

Explanation:

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.

<h3>What is Columb's law?</h3>

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Similar charges repel each other, whereas charges that are opposed attract each other.

Given data;

Electric force,F = 9 × 10 ⁻⁹ N

Distance between charges,d = 7 × 10⁻⁴ m

Chrge,q₁ = q₂ =q C

From Columb's law;

\rm F = K \frac{q_1q_2}{d^2} \\\\ 9 \times 10^{-9}  = 9 \times 10^9 \frac{q^2}{(7 \times 10^{-4})^2} \\\\ q^2 = 4.9 \times 10^{-25} \\\\  q = 7 \times 10^{-13} \ C

Hence the charge on each of the equally charged drops of hairspray willl be 7 × 10 ⁻¹³ C

How far does light travel in the time it takes sound to travel 1 cm in air at 20°c?
kykrilka [37]
The speed of sound at 20^{\circ}C is approximately v=343 m/s. The distance covered by the sound wave is
s=1 cm=0.01 m
And the time it takes is
t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{0.01 m}{343 m/s}=2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s

Now we want to find how far the light travels during this time. Light travels at speed c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, therefore the distance it covers during this time is
S=ct = (3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s)=8700 m

A 513 g ball strikes a wall at 14.7 m/s and rebounds at 11.3 m/s. The ball is in contact with the wall for 0.038 s. What is the
Natasha_Volkova [10]

consider the velocity of the ball towards the wall as negative and away from the wall as positive.

m = mass of the ball = 513 g = 0.513 kg

v₀ =  initial velocity of the ball towards the wall before collision = - 14.7 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball away from the wall after collision = 11.3 m/s

t = time of contact with the wall = 0.038 sec

F = average force acting on the ball

using impulse-change in momentum equation , average force is given as

F = m (v - v₀)/t

inserting the values

F = (0.513) (11.3 - (- 14.7))/0.038

F = 351 N

An object falls freely for 25 seconds, what is the velocity after the 25 seconds ?
Andrei [34K]
The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s² downward.
This means that gravity adds 9.8 m/s downward to the speed
of a freely falling object every second.

So after 25 sec, it's falling (25 x 9.8m/s) = 245 m/s faster than
it was falling at the beginning of the 25 seconds.

If it dropped from rest (no speed), then its velocity
after 25 seconds is 245 m/s downward.
