Remark

He's pulled upwards by the parachute. The formula is given below. Details are found searching for terminal velocity.

$V_t=\sqrt\frac{2mg}{\rho A C_d}$

Whatever that calculation turns out to be, a person has to be going a whole lot slower before he can safely hit the ground. The parachute is designed so that the person will be slowed very quickly to a safe velocity so when he hits the ground the impulse will not be as great as it could be. The force that the parachute delivers acts upward and opposes the force of gravity which is a downward force.

Two large non-conducting plates of surface area A = 0.25 m 2 carry equal but opposite charges What is the energy density of the

Stells [14]

Answer:

5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Explanation:

Using E = q/A*eo

And

q =75*10^-6 C

A = 0.25

eo = 8.85*10^-12

Energy density = 1/2*eo*(E^2) = 1/2*eo*(q/A*eo)^2 = [q^2] / [2*(A^2)*eo]

= [(75*10^-6)^2] / [2*(0.25)^2*8.85*10^-12]

= 5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

So frigid temps I think .

Explanation:

The neritic zone is a shallow zone of water. It is sunlit and it receives ample solar insolation all year round. The salinity of this zone is very stable. This makes for organism to thrive. The neritic zone is home to diverse aquatic life.

What is the angular displacement of a minute hand of a clock after 3 minutes?

Inessa [10]

Answer:

π/10 rads

Explanation:

It takes an hour (60 minutes) for the minute's hand to turn a full circle or achieve an angular rotation of

2πl rad.

Now, number of periods of 3 minutes in an hour is;

Number of periods = 60/3 = 20 periods

Thus, 3 minutes rotation accounts for 1/20 of 2π the rotation of the minute's hand in an hour.

Thus;

Angular displacement = (1/20) * 2π = π/10 rads
