A sky-diver jumps from a stationary balloon. His initial downwards acceleration is 10m/s².
Tatiana [17]

Explanation:

a. The force acting down is gravity, on Earth gravity is 10 m/s^2. When the skydiver jump, the acceleration will start out as -10 m/s^2, but it will eventually equals the air resistance , which is called terminal velocity.

Rainfall in tropical rainforests amounts to about 10 to 14 feet per year.
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u>

The statement is true statement

<u>Explanation:</u>

Tropical rainforests are dry and green throughout the year. Even between the day and the night, temperatures don't change much. in tropical rainforests The average temperature varies from 70 to 85 °F (21 to 30 °C) .

Throughout tropical rainforests, the climate is quite wet, maintaining a humidity level of 77% to 88% year around which is a high value. The annual rainfall is between 80 and 400 inches (200 and 1000 cm), that is 6-33 feets, and it can rain heavily. It can drain as much as 5 cm (2 inches) in an hour.

An average person can reach a maximum height of about 60 cm when jumping straight up from a crouched position. During the jump i
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Height attained by body = 50 cm

= .5 m

Initial velocity = u

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = u² - 2gh

u² = 2 x 9.8 x .5

u = 3.13 m /s

During the initial period , the muscle stretches by around 10 cm during which force by ground reacts on the body and gives acceleration to achieve velocity of 3.13 m/s from zero .

v² = u² + 2as

3.13² = 0 + 2 a x .10

a = 49  m/s²

reaction by ground R

Net force

R-mg = ma

R= m ( g +a )

= mg + ma

=W + (W/g) x a

W ( 1 + a / g )

= W ( 1 + 49 / 9.8 )

= 6W

A gas undergoes two processes. In the first, the volume remains constant at 0.200 m3 and the pressure increases from 1.00×105 Pa
Alborosie
<h2>The work done = - 2 x 10⁴ J</h2>

Explanation:

In the first case , the volume is kept constant and pressure varies .

In isothermal process  , the work done

W₁ = V x ΔP

here V is the volume of gas and ΔP is the change in pressure

Thus W₁ = 0

Because there is no change in volume , therefore displacement is zero .

In second case pressure is constant , but volume changes

Thus W₂ = P x ΔV

here P is the pressure  and ΔV is the change in volume

Therefore W₂ = 4 x 10⁵ x 5 x 10⁻² = 2 x 10⁴ J

The total work done W = - 2 x 10⁴ J

Because the work done in compression is negative .
