Answer:
Parachute exerts a force of 619.2 N upward
The net force is 86.4 N acting downward
Explanation:
As the gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2, the parachute help reduces the net acceleration to 1.2m/s. So it must exerted an upward acceleration on the skydiver of
9.8 - 1.2 = 8.6 m/s2
Since the skydiver mass is 72 kg, we can use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the force that causes this acceleration of 8.6
F = ma = 8.6*72 = 619.2 N acting upward
The net force is also the product of net acceleration and mass
= 1.2 * 72 = 86.4 N acting downward
I believe the answer is A.
Since the Earth is in the Milky Way and not outside it, we cannot see the exact shape of it. Physicists have been able to track and graph the movements of the planets accurately for thousands of years, but that does not mean we know the shape of the entire solar system.<span />
I would say mass, and weight.
Answer:
3.6 x 10⁶ Pa
Explanation:
A = Area of the heel = 1.50 cm² = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ m²
m = mass of the woman = 55.0 kg
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Force of gravity on the heel is given as
F = mg
Inserting the values
F = (55) (9.8)
F = 539 N
Pressure exerted on the floor is given as
P = 3.6 x 10⁶ Pa
