Answer:
Due to the resistance of air, a drag force acts on a falling body (parachute) to slow down its motion. Without air resistance, or drag, objects would continue to increase speed until they hit the ground. The larger the object, the greater its air resistance. Parachutes use a large canopy to increase air resistance. Also, 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. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down. Sorry if not helpful.
Answer:
Negative
Explanation:
Observe that the object below moves in the positive direction with a changing velocity. An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity. If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion (in this case, a negative acceleration).
Answer:
Troposphere
High-pressure areas form due to downward motion through the troposphere, the atmospheric layer where weather occurs.
Answer:
The answer to your question is C
Explanation:
acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The greatest concentration of atomic mass is in the nucleus because it is made up of protons and neutrons. The electrons surrounding the nucleus don't have as much mass as protons or neutrons.
