The graph shows how the vertical velocity of a parachutist changes from the moment the parachutist jumps from the aircraft until

landing on the ground. Using the idea of forces, explain why the parachutist reaches a terminal velocity and why opening the parachute reduces the terminal velocity.

Deffense [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity. The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. ... The skydiver thus slows down. As the speed decreases, the amount of air resistance also decreases until once more the skydiver reaches a terminal velocity.

Electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy often results in analyte molecules fragmenting.
guajiro [1.7K]

Electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy often results in analyte molecules fragmenting

FALSE

<u>Electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy</u>

It is a technique using electrospray to generate ions for mass spectrometry by applying high voltage  to the liquid.

Electrospray ionization is a soft ionization technique.

It is used for production of gas phase ions.

The process of  Electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy

1. dispersal of a fine spray charge droplets

2. solvent evaporation

3. ion ejection from highly charged droplets

Bone has a Young's modulus of about
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

505.62 mm

Explanation:

Young's modulus of a material is given by,

Y=\frac{Stress}{Strain}

Stress is the force experienced by the material per unit area (which is why stress has the same units as pressure).

Strain is the ratio between the change in length/area/volume to the original length/area/volume of the material (and hence a dimensionless quantity). Basically, it gives us a measure of the change in dimensions due to the stress experienced.

So, for the given problem,

Y=\frac{Stress}{\Delta L/L}

or, 1.8\times100=\frac{1.59\times108}{\Delta L/0.53}      (since we need to find the compression of the bone at the critical stress point)

or, \Delta L=\frac{1.59\times108\times0.53}{1.8\times100} m=0.50562m=505.62mm

What current, in units of milliAmperes, would produce a potential difference of 4.5
Bess [88]

Answer;

<u>= 56.96 mA</u>

Explanation;

From the Ohm's law;

V = IR, where V is the potential difference in volts, I is the electric current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms.

V = 4.5 volts, R = 79 Ω

Making I the subject of the formula we get;

I =V/R

= 4.5 /79

= 0.05696 A

But, 1 A = 1000 mA

Thus; 0.05696 × 1000

        <u>= 56.96 mA</u>
