HEYOOO PEEEPPPSS As skydivers fall through the air, a resisting force builds up underneath them. This air resistance decreases their acceleration toward the ground, making them reach a constant velocity as they fall. This is called terminal velocity. The average terminal velocity for a skydiver is about 200 km/hr.


This speed is much too fast for a skydiver to land safely. A safe speed for a skydiver to land at is only 30 km/hr.


Resistance from the air isn’t enough to slow down a skydiver to a safe landing speed. The skydiver needs a parachute.




Does the parachute provide an acceleration for the skydiver? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down. As the speed decreases, the amount of air resistance also decreases until once more the skydiver reaches a terminal velocity.
Answer 2

Answer:Your parachute allows you to descend more slowly because it lowers terminal velocity by increasing your air resistance. Most parachutes are designed to create a large amount of drag and allow you to land at a safe, low speed.

Explanation:Again this is going to be the same explanation as the other one a said in the same question but it duplicated so here it is: this is just to try and contradict the other one because the other one above me doesn't really go into explaining what is the role of the parachute so hopefully this helps bettery in clarifying details in some way shape or form.

Treaty of Versailles


What were some demands of the Treaty of Versailles?
Was the Treaty fair? Why/why not?

Answers

Answer:

Treaty was unfair.

Explanation:

The Treaty of Versailles was the treaty that signed peace between the Allies and Germany specifically. To say it was unfair is an understatement. Germany had to give up all of its colonies, it had to cede a bunch of land (including but not limited to Alsace-Lorraine to France, and Danzig to a newly formed Poland), it had to significantly downsize its military, and it wasn't allowed to put troops in the Rhineland. Basically, they had to give up a ton of land and had to have their military reduced to the point of irrelevance.

Answer:

This is your own opinion

Explanation:

My opinion: the treaty was unfair, it was a cause of another world war and people at the time saw this and published cartoons upon it, the whole point of the ToV was meant to sustain world peace, however, Clemenceau wanted to destroy Germany down. We can clearly see it was not fair.

a) separation of powers
b) checks and balances
Your answer should be at least 5-7 sentences in length.

Answers

Answer:

Checks and balances: The system of checks and balances in government was developed to ensure that no one branch of government would become too powerful. The framers of the U.S. Constitution built a system that divides power between the three branches of the U.S. government—legislative, executive and judicial—and includes various limits and controls on the powers of each branch.

Separation of powers: The system of separation of powers divides the tasks of the state into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial. These tasks are assigned to different institutions in such a way that each of them can check the others. As a result, no one institution can become so powerful in a democracy as to destroy this system.

Answer:

to limit any one branch from excersizeing the core functions of another. to prevent the concentration of power. to provide checks and balances. to depend on the power of each other.

Explain whether or not the excerpt from the poem, “The White Man’s Burden,” (found below) by Rudyard Kipling, was for imperialism or not. It may help to research what the burden of white people was according to Kipling (Hint: it is very racist).

Answers

Answer:

It would be futile to try to recognize or refute any of the poem's appearances of bigotry against non-white people because it is so common, ingrained, and over-the-top.However, it's worth noting how Kipling's bigotry blinded him to the truth of white imperialists—and, one may argue, to the white race—that "The White Man's Burden" so reveres. There is no truthful experience of colonization or imperialism that can characterize European or American imperialism's motivations or consequences as being inspired by selfless benevolence or having solely positive effects.From the devastation and enslavement of indigenous peoples in the Americas to the slave trade that developed out of European colonialism in Africa, to the uniquely rapacious and corrupt activities of the Belgian Congo, to the profit, strength, and national pride that Britain gained from its empire, on which it gloatingly exulted "the sun never set," white imperialism was never solely motivated by self-interest.

Name 3 Reasons why it made life harder for those who were poor in Rome

Answers


30% of the population were slaves, and their lives could vary all the way from a trusted slave-businessman who would travel and conduct the owner’s business affairs, to a household slave that either may be raped at will or fed and housed pretty well depending on the owner, to men strapped to oars where death rates were high, to mine workers where death rates were even higher. The wealthy owned plantations, too, where slave life was less than optimal. There was a food dole in Rome for the urban poor which expanded over time so while the general concern for the poor was low there was an understanding that mass starvation was not in the interest of the upper-class. People lived in urban apartment blocks eventually; fires and plagues were common. Street violence was endemic. Ripping down whole neighborhoods to build extravagant complexes and gardens to suit an emperor could occur. Politics could involve effectively buying the vote of the urban poor citizen who had rights to elect lower assembly representatives; they could be brought in from the suburbs/exurbs for the vote, and throwing games to entertain them and figure out when to encourage them to do your bidding or keep them in line was a strategy of the political climbers. They could be divided into sort of political clubs.
