<span>Let's make a few assumptions.
1. The paratrooper's lowest speed will be just prior to impact.
2. Since the jump was from a relatively low altitude, the paratrooper used a static line and the parachute should have opened almost immediately upon jumping.
So let's convert 100 mi/h to ft/s
100 mi/h * 5280 ft/mi / 3600 s/h = 146.67 ft/sec
Given the 1st assumption above, the MAXIMUM distance the paratrooper would have fallen would be 8 seconds at 146.67 ft/s, so
8 s * 146.67 ft/s = 1173.36 ft
The calculated distance is close to the jump distance, which agrees with both assumptions 1 and 2. So this account does seem reasonable.
Additionally, looking for the speed of a parachutist doing a freefall in the belly-to-earth position with arms and legs outspread, they will generally reach a terminal velocity of 120 mi/h which is slightly faster than the 100 mi/h in the article. This too is in agreement with the defective parachute flapping and causing some extra air resistance.</span>
There are only two types of planetary motion and these kinds are revolution and rotation. Revolution is the act of the planets in the solar system to move around or "revolve" around the sun while rotation is done in which the planet "rotates" on its axis. In addition, the earth revolves around the sun in 365 and 1/4 days.
Answer:
Option (e)
Explanation:
If a mass attached to a spring is stretched and released, it follows a simple harmonic motion.
In simple harmonic motion, velocity of the mass will be maximum, kinetic energy is maximum and acceleration is 0 at equilibrium position (at 0 position).
At position +A, mass will have the minimum kinetic energy, zero velocity and maximum acceleration.
Therefore, Option (e) will be the answer.
When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.
Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand both scalar and vector .
A scalar quantity is a physical quantity which has only magnitude for it's complete specification.
A vector quantity is that physical quantity which not only requires magnitude but also possesses direction for it's complete specification.
So the most important factor that differentiate vector from scalar is the direction.
As per the question the student is doing an experiment where he is recording the data obtained during the process.
In order to arrange them in data table, he should ask about the direction of the quantity under consideration.
Hence the correct option is the third option(C)i.e does the measurement include direction?
