A parachute increases air friction, thus reducing falling speed.
Indeed, the air friction is roughly proportional to the surface of the object falling down; the parachute tremendously increases that surface.
Answer:
35870474.30504 m
Explanation:
r = Distance from the surface
T = Time period = 24 h
G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
m = Mass of the Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg
Radius of Earth = 
The gravitational force will balance the centripetal force


From Kepler's law we have relation

Distance from the center of the Earth would be

Answer:
(a) A = 0.0800 m, λ = 20.9 m, f = 11.9 Hz
(b) 250 m/s
(c) 1250 N
(d) Positive x-direction
(e) 6.00 m/s
(f) 0.0365 m
Explanation:
(a) The standard form of the wave is:
y = A cos ((2πf) t ± (2π/λ) x)
where A is the amplitude, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.
If the x term has a positive coefficient, the wave moves to the left.
If the x term has a negative coefficient, the wave moves to the right.
Therefore:
A = 0.0800 m
2π/λ = 0.300 m⁻¹
λ = 20.9 m
2πf = 75.0 rad/s
f = 11.9 Hz
(b) Velocity is wavelength times frequency.
v = λf
v = (20.9 m) (11.9 Hz)
v = 250 m/s
(c) The tension is:
T = v²ρ
where ρ is the mass per unit length.
T = (250 m/s)² (0.0200 kg/m)
T = 1250 N
(d) The x term has a negative coefficient, so the wave moves to the right (positive x-direction).
(e) The maximum transverse speed is Aω.
(0.0800 m) (75.0 rad/s)
6.00 m/s
(f) Plug in the values and find y.
y = (0.0800 m) cos((75.0 rad/s) (2.00 s) − (0.300 m⁻¹) (1.00 m))
y = 0.0365 m
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The color you see is the color the object reflectes. The rest of the color are absorbed by that object.
