Which physical property is best measured using only a balance?

how do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate

professor190 [17]

While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

Jupiter’s Great Red Spot rotates completely every six days. If the spot is circular (not quite true, but a reasonable approximat

artcher [175]

Answer:

$v = 567.2 km/h$

Explanation:

As we know that if Jupiter Rotate one complete rotation then it means that the it will turn by 360 degree angle

so here the distance covered by the point on its surface in one complete rotation is given by

$distance = 2\pi r$

$distance = \pi D$

now we will have the time to complete the rotation given as

$t = 6 days$

$t = 6 (24 h) = 144 h$

now the speed is given by

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$speed = \frac{\pi D}{t}$

$speed = \frac{\pi(26000 km)}{144}$

$v = 567.2 km/h$

Fifteen identical particles have various speeds: one has a speed of 2.00 m/s, two have speeds of 3.00 m/s, three have speeds 5.0

Tems11 [23]

A. Average speed is weighted mean (1 × 2 + 2 × 3 + 3 × 5 + 4 × 7 + 3 × 9 + 2 × 12.5)/15 = (2 + 6 + 15 + 28 + 27 + 25)/15 = 103/15 = 6.867 b. RMS is square root of 1/15 times sum of squares of speeds Sum of squares is 4 + 9 + 9 + 25 + 25 + 25 + 49 + 49 + 49 + 49 + 81 + 81 + 81 +156.25 + 156.25 = 848.5
c. RMS speed = √(848.5/15) = 7.521
Most likely the speed is the peak in the speed distribution, which is 7.

A horizontal force of 140 N is needed to pull a 60kg box across the horizontal floor at constant speed . Find the coefficient of

____ [38]

Explanation:

formula for force is:

force=mass × acceleration

but in case of friction

force =coefficient of friction × Normal Reaction

F. = u × R

U = F/R

but when placed horizontally

R= M×G

M=mass=60kg

G=Gravity(10m/s or 9.8m/s)

F=140N

U=140/60×10

U=140/600

U=0.2333333333

approximately to 3 significant figures

U=0.233

if i am correct rate it 5 star
