The horizontal component would be

(77.02 m/s) cos(34°) ≈ 63.85 m/s

When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force on it. This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the s
skad [1K]

Answer:

The value a = 1.1842 \ m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the sky diver is W =  968 \  N

The magnitude of the drag force is D_f  =  1085 \  N

The mass of the sky diver is m  =  98.8 \ kg

Generally the net force acting on the sky diver is mathematically represented as

F = m * a  =  D_f  - W

Hence the acceleration of the sky diver is mathematically represented as

a =  \frac{D_f - W}{ m}

=> a =  \frac{1085 - 968}{  98.8}

=> a = 1.1842 \ m/s^2

Explain electrostatic force
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, or electron, was thus the source of the word 'electricity'.

Part 1: Use complete sentences to explain why solar winds occur. Part 2: Give two examples in which solar winds impact Earth.
Troyanec [42]

Part 1

When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released, and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.

Part 2

1.  Not all the radiation of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly solar flares.

2.  Solar flares contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.
