In other words, it would take Deep Space 1 more than 81,000 years to travel the 4.24 light-years between Earth and Proxima Centauri at its top speed of 56,000 km/h. In relation to human history, that would be more than 2,700 generations.
Nearly 40 trillion kilometers, or 4.4 light-years, separate us from Alpha Centauri. The NASA-Germany Helios probes, the fastest spacecraft to date to be launched into orbit, flew at a speed of 250,000 kilometers per hour. The probes would need 18,000 years to travel at such pace to arrive at the sun's nearest neighbor. The calculations reveal that it is almost impossible to reach the nearest star in a human lifetime, even with the most futuristic technologies.

Answer:
a = 1.152s
b = 0.817 m
c = 7.29m/s
Explanation: let the following
From the first equation of linear motion
V = u+at..........1
parameters be represented as :
t = Time taken
v = Final velocity
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
u = Initial velocity = 4 m/s
s = Displacement
V = 0
Substitute the values into equation 1
0 = 4-9.8(t)
-4 = -9.8t
t = 4/9.8
t = 0.408s
From : s = ut+1/2at^2.........2
S = 4×0.408+0.5(-9.8)×0.408^2
S= 1.632-4.9(0.166)
S = 1.632-0.815
S = 0.817m
Her highest height above the board is 0.817 m
Total height she would fall is 0.817+1.90 = 2.717 m
From equation 2
s = ut+1/2at^2
2.717 m = 0t+0.5(9.8)t^2
2.717 m = 0+4.9t^2
2.717 m = 4.9t^2
2.717/4.9 = t^2
0.554 =t^2
t =√0.554
t = 0.744s
Hence, her feet were in the air for 0.744+0.408seconds
= 1.152s
Also recall from equation 1
V= u+at
V = 0+9.8(0.744)
V = 7.29m/s
Hence, the velocity when she hits the water is 7.29m/s
Finally,
a = 1.152s
b = 0.817 m
c = 7.29m/s
A). balanced force
b). unbalanced force
There's no such thing as either of these. A group of two or more forces can be balanced or unbalanced. A single force can't be.
c). gravitational force ... doesn't cause an object to move in a circle;
Drop a stone from the roof of a tall building and watch it fall.
It goes straight down, not in a circle.
d). centripetal force ... force directed toward the center of a circle,
causes an object to move in a circle.
