<span>An object that is in free fall seems to be weightless, even though the
usual force of gravity is acting on it. 

If the falling object happens to be a person, then every part of him is
falling at the same rate, so none of his internal organs are pressing
against anything like they normally do, and he has no sensation of weight. 

If a bathroom scale happens to be falling with him and he places it under
his feet, it won't read anything, since the scale and the person are both
falling at the same rate. </span>

As soon as parachute of a falling soldier opens, how will the accleration change?​
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The acceleration will become zero

Explanation:

When the parachute of a falling soldier is opened the wide surface area decreases his velocity. This also translates to the drag force acting on the fallen soldier

The acceleration will become zero when the velocity of the fallen soldier is constant. This principle is the reason the parachute is used for safety reasons .

Suppose you have a 115 kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor, with coefficient of static friction 0.500 between these wood sur
alexdok [17]

Answer:

maximum force (in N) can you exert horizontally on the crate without moving it = 564.075 N

Explanation:

Given data:

mass m= 115 kg

coefficient of friction μ =0.5

according to newton law of motion the net force acted on body is given by

F_{net}=ma=F_{max}- F_{f}

here the body is in rest ,

F_{net}=0\\\Rightarrow F_{max}=F_{f}\\\text{frriction force}  F_{f} = \mu\times N\\

N= it is the normal reaction force

N= mg = 115×9.81

therefore,

F_{f} = 0.5\times115\times9.81 = 564.075 N = F_{max}

A.) Determine the work done by Zach on the bull.
tresset_1 [31]

Explanation:

The unit of work done is in Joules

Work done is a physical quantity that is defined as the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

Work is only done when the force applied moves a body through a distance.

    Work done  = Force x distance

The maximum work is done when the force is parallel to the distance direction.

The minimum work is done when the force is at an angle of 90° to the distance direction.

 So to solve this problem;

 multiply the force applied by Zack and distance through which the bull was pulled.
