a) 0.94 m
The work done by the snow to decelerate the paratrooper is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the man:
where:
is the force applied by the snow
d is the displacement of the man in the snow, so it is the depth of the snow that stopped him
m = 68 kg is the man's mass
v = 0 is the final speed of the man
u = 55 m/s is the initial speed of the man (when it touches the ground)
and where the negative sign in the work is due to the fact that the force exerted by the snow on the man (upward) is opposite to the displacement of the man (downward)
Solving the equation for d, we find:
b) -3740 kg m/s
The magnitude of the impulse exerted by the snow on the man is equal to the variation of momentum of the man:
where
m = 68 kg is the mass of the man
is the change in velocity of the man
Substituting,
We learned that We are in the disk of the Galaxy, about 5/8 of the way from the center.
<h3>What is the work of Harlow Shapley?</h3>
Shapley, who was headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, used Cepheid variable stars to estimate the size of the Milky Way Galaxy and its position relative to the Sun. In 1953, he published his "liquid water belt" theory, today known as the concept of a livable zone.
There are many stars, grains of dust, and gas in the Milky Way. It is known as a spiral galaxy because, from the top or bottom, it would appear to be whirling like a pinwheel. About 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's nucleus, the Sun is situated on one of the spiral arms.
Approximately 5/8 of the way from the galaxy's nucleus, we are in the disc. William Herschel believed that the Sun and Earth were about in the middle of the vast cluster of stars known as the Milky Way.

Assuming acceleration due to gravity of the moon is constant and there’s no initial velocity in the mans jump we can use one of the kinematic equations. x(final)=x(initial)+(1/2)gt^2. Plug in known values. 0=10-(1.62/2)t^2. The value 1.62 is acceleration of gravity on the moon. Now simply solve for t. t=3.513
Vocabulary should be, I think:
I. Hypothesis
II. Evidence, data
III. Experiment
