Answer:
average for silk =141"
average for cotton =96"
average for nylon = 70"
if you desire a slower falling parachute to protect the body from damage,
silk is the best
if you desire a faster falling parachute to escape enemy bullets,
nylon is the best

Problem Solving
1. Kelvin and Xavier were doing an investigation on parachutes. One of them suggested that the type of material the parachute was made from had an effect on how long it took to reach the ground. Their results are given in
the table below.
(a) Calculate the average time in seconds for each material.
Time taken for parachute to reach the ground (seconds)
MATERIAL
1st TRY
2nd TRY
3rd TRY
AVERAGE
Sik
144
140 average of 3 = 141
139
Cotton
98
96 average of 3 = 96
94
Nylon
72
68 average of 3 = 70
70
Calculate the food energy (joules/g) of one of your food
samples. one chemistry calorie is equal to 4.186 joules. convert the energy you
calculated to kilojoules (1 kj = 1000 j). since nothing is given, an example is
avocadoes have 160 cal/100 g serving
(160 cal/ 100 g)(4.186 J/ 1 cal) (1 kJ/1000 J) = 0.0067 kJ/g
Given two questions:
<span>1) If a car passes a pedestrian, a change in pitch is ______________.
The answer is the change in pitch is perceived by the pedestrian since he is the one in a relatively constant position compared to the car passing.
2) </span><span>In the Doppler Effect lab, which statement best describes what you demonstrated about speed and pitch?
The answer is 'speed and direction affect pitch'.</span>
The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and
nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:
C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22
H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25
N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22
Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:
C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5
N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
So the empirical formula is:
CHN
The salt is a solid compound and is considered the "Solute" of the solution.
