List 5 different examples of a pushing force?

up thrust, friction, air resistance, gravity and that's all i know


Does the Feather and stone falls at the same speed due to earths gravity and zero air resistance and the gravitational force is the same for the feather and the coin?

A feather and a stone do not fall at the same rate. The feather falls at a slower rate because a feather is subject to the effects of air resistance (it's air resistance to weight ratio is small. A stone has a large air resistance to weight ratio) . The feather may also be subject to blowing winds. Think of 2 pieces of wood. One is 10 lbs and is a sheet, the other is 5 lbs and a block. The weight does not change how fast they fall but the resistance to the air does and so the 10lb sheet of wood takes longer to fall.


What will be the acceleration of a skydiver when air resistance builds up to be half her weight?

5 m/s^2 (or 4.9 m/s^2 if you want to be exact) Since acceleration is zero when air resistance is equal to weight of object, and the most acceleration possible is 10 m/s^2 (or specifically, 9.8 m/s^2), then when air resistance is half of her weight, acceleration is also half, meaning 5m/s^2.


What is the effective resistance between the two points at the ends of any one of the diameter of the circle when a wire of resistance 10 ohm is bent in the form of a circle.?

It is 2, 5 ohm resistors in parallel. So the effective resistance is 5/2 = 2.5 ohms.

What is the acceleration by a freely falling object 5 seconds after it is dropped from rest?

It depends if it is affected by air resistance or not. If not then all objects close to the surface of the Earth have an acceleration of 9.81ms^-2 in free fall. If it is affected by air resistance you need all sorts of more information to answer that question, like the drag coefficient of the air.
