Answer:
average for silk =141"
average for cotton =96"
average for nylon = 70"
if you desire a slower falling parachute to protect the body from damage,
silk is the best
if you desire a faster falling parachute to escape enemy bullets,
nylon is the best

Problem Solving
1. Kelvin and Xavier were doing an investigation on parachutes. One of them suggested that the type of material the parachute was made from had an effect on how long it took to reach the ground. Their results are given in
the table below.
(a) Calculate the average time in seconds for each material.
Time taken for parachute to reach the ground (seconds)

50 grams or 50,000 mili grams is the mass of solute in 1000 grams of a solution having a concentration of 5 parts per million.
Explanation:
Total mass of solution = 1000 grams or 1000 ml since 1 gram = 1 ml
concentration is 5 parts per million ( 5 mg in 1000 ml solution or 0.005 gram in 1000 ml)
the formula used for parts per million:
parts per million =
putting the values in the equation:
parts per million =
0.005 x 1000 = mass of solute
50 grams= mass of solute
converting this into mg
50,000 mg. is the total mass of solute in 5ppm of 1000 ml solution.
Answer: C. no new substances
are formed<span>

<span>In the
physical change of matter, there is no new substance that is formed. It is only
the appearance of the matter that is being changed and not its chemical
composition. Cutting, tearing and grinding are only some of the examples that
exhibit physical change. </span></span>
An alloy maybe could be used as a solid but i really don't think that would be it so i would sayether from an alloy or dirt
