Complete question :

A parachutist's speed during a free fall reaches 162 kilometers per hour. What is this speed in meters per second? At this speed, how many meters will the parachutist fall during 20 seconds of free fall? Do not round your answers.

Answer:

45 m/s ; 900 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Speed = 162 kilometers per hour ;

The speed in meters per second can be found by:

162 km/hr = (162 * 1000)m / (60 * 60) second

162 km/hr = 162000m / 3600 s

162 km/hr = 45 m/s

At this speed, how many meters will the parachutist fall during 20 seconds of free fall?

Speed of free fall = 45m /s

Distance in meters after 20 seconds :

(45 m/s * 20s) = 900 meters

For problem 2, you are correct in stating that a curve forms. Specifically, if we were to trace along the outer edge of the shape, then we'd form a <u>parabola</u> that has been tilted 45 degrees compared to the more familiar form that students are taught (where the axis of symmetry is vertical).

For more information, search out "Tangent method for parabolas". As the name implies, the tangent method draws out the tangents of the parabola which helps form the parabola itself.

Everything else on your paper is correct. You have problem 1 correct, and the table is filled out perfectly. Nice work.

How can probabilities be used to make fair decisions?
GarryVolchara [31]

he magician starts with the birthday boy and moves clockwise, passing out 100100100100 pieces of paper numbered 1111 through 100100100100. He cycles around the circle until all the pieces are distributed. He then uses a random number generator to pick an integer 1111 through 100100100100, and chooses the volunteer with that number.

Method2: The magician starts with the birthday boy and moves counter-clockwise, passing out 75757575 pieces of paper numbered 1111 through 75757575. He cycles around the circle until all the pieces are distributed. He then uses a random number generator to pick an integer 1111 through 75757575, and chooses the volunteer with that number.

Method 3\: The magician starts with the birthday boy and moves clockwise, passing out 30303030 pieces of paper numbered 1111 through 30303030. He cycles around the circle until all the pieces are distributed. He gives #1111 to the birthday boy, #2222 to the next kid, and so on. He then counts the number of windows in the room and chooses the volunteer with that number.

yes probabilites can be used to make fair ones

thanx
