The parachutists are not hurt when they jump out of an airplane, why?​

Physics
1 answer:
Darya [45]3 years ago
7 0
When the parachute deploys it increases the persons air resistance to (temporaily) greater than the force of weight. This causes them to decellerate. As they decellerate resistance decreases again until once again it balances out. Terminal velocity is reduced to a safe level, and landing without injury is possible.

5. Describe the properties of each of these parts of the Earth’s interior: lithosphere, mantle, and core. What are they made of?
Arisa [49]
Hey there!

Okay so, the Lithosphere is made out of Earth’s outermost layer, which is composed of rocks in the crust and the upper mantle that behave as brittle solids.

The Mantle is made up of rock containing silicon, iron, magnesium, aluminum, oxygen and other minerals.

The Core has two parts. The solid inner core made up of iron. The outer core is surrounded by a liquid composed of a nickel-iron alloy.

I hope this helps!

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The average speed will be 1.5km/hr .

Explanation:

Distance need to be traveled = 7.5Km

Time taken = 5 hours

Average speed refers to total distance traveled with respect to total time taken .

It can be calculated as given below :

Average speed =total distance /total time taken

Substituting the values we get ,as shown below

Average speed =7.5/5=75/50

Average speed = 1.5 Km/hr

Georgia [21]

Answer:

\bold {1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^2}

Explanation:

electronic configuration of an atom is the spatial arrangement of the electrons around the nucleus in the energy orbits

We know that the atomic number of Titanium is 22

The electronic configuration of Titanium is

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^2

A man, a distance d=3~\text{m}d=3 m from a target, throws a ball at an angle \theta= 70^\circθ=70 ​∘ ​​ above the horizontal. If
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The ball doesn't strike the building because it strikes the ground at d=1.62 meters.

Explanation:

V= 5 m/s < 70º

Vx= 1.71 m/s

Vy= 4.69 m/s

h= Vy * t - g * t²/2

clearing t for the flying time of the ball:

t= 0.95 s

d= Vx * t

d= 1.62 m
