Two skydivers of different masses jump from a plane. explain how their falls compare, including the effects of gravity, mass, an

d air resistance.
Physics
1 answer:
Lady bird [3.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:  Air resistance is insignificant for heavy objects precisely because it doesn't depend on the mass. This is because a force is just an interaction that tries to change the momentum of an object, and the momentum depends on the mass; the larger the mass, the larger the momentum, and the more force you need to change it.

If a small sports car collides head-on with a massive truck, which vehicle experiences the greater impact force? Which vehicle e
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Small sports car.

Explanation:

Lets take

mass of the small car = m

mass of the truck = M

As we know that when car collide with the massive truck then due to change in the moment of the car both car as well as truck will feel force.We also know that from Third law of Newton's ,it states that every action have it reaction with same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

Therefore

F = m a

a=Acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

F= M a'

a'=Acceleration of the massive truck

a'=\dfrac{F}{M}

Here given that M > m that is why a > a'

Therefore car will experiences more acceleration.

A 1.0 kg ball falls from rest a distance of 19.6 m.
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

192.08J

19.6m/s

Explanation:

Since there will be no potential energy when the ball is on the ground, the change in potential energy is equal to the potential energy at the start when the ball is 19.6m above the ground.

PE=mgh

=(1)(9.8)(19.6)

=192.08J

v²=u²+2as, where v is the final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and s is distance. Initial velocity is 0 since it starts at rest.

v²=u²+2as

v²=0²+2(9.8)(19.6)

v=√384.16

=19.6m/s

How does the area of ​​0.3 m2 of iron change when heated from 20 ° C to 60 ° C?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The quantitative relationship between heat transfer and temperature change contains all three factors: Q = mcΔT, where Q is the symbol for heat transfer, m is the mass of the substance, and ΔT is the change in temperature. The symbol c stands for specific heat and depends on the material and phase. The specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of 1.00 kg of mass by 1.00ºC. The specific heat c is a property of the substance; its SI unit is J/(kg ⋅ K) or J/(kg ⋅ ºC). Recall that the temperature change (ΔT) is the same in units of kelvin and degrees Celsius. If heat transfer is measured in kilocalories, then the unit of specific heat is kcal/(kg ⋅ ºC).

Describe the Pascal's principles​
boyakko [2]

Explanation:

Pascal's principle, also called Pascal's law, in fluid (gas or liquid) mechanics, statement that, in a fluid at rest in a closed container, a pressure change in one part is transmitted without loss to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the container.
