32.2 ft/s2 on earth
A second after jumping out of a plane your speed will be 32.2 feet per second. After the second second, it will be 64.4 feet per second. After three seconds your speed will be 96.6 feet per second. Each second 32.2 ft/sec will be added until acted on by another force such as a parachute, air friction (terminal velocity) or the ground.
Terminal Velocity is about 61 ft/sec. it will be higher at higher altitudes since there is less air.
What else can I help you with?
Is specific gravity a vector or scalar quantity?
Gravity is a force, and forces have magnitude and direction; hence, it is a vector.
If Refers To The Size Or Strength Of The Force?
The "size" of a vector quantity - such as a force - is often called a MAGNITUDE.
The length of a vector arrow represents its?
The direction of the arrow represents the direction of the force; the length of the arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force.
What two things effect the magnitude of gravity?
Mass & distance.
The force of gravity depends on?
Gravitational force depends on distance and mass. Thus, the formula for calculating gravitational force between 2 objects with a given distance: G[(mass 1)(mass 2)]/distance squared. G is universal gravitational constant: 6.67x10 raised to -11 power. Sorry if it's a little confusing to read...since I can't do basic math operations here.
How do friction and gravity relate?
The magnitude of friction is proportional to the magnitude of the normal force which is proportional to the magnitude of gravity(The magnitude of the normal force is indirectly proportional to the magnitude of gravity.). The magnitude of the normal force, N, compared to gravity, G, on angle z, is: N=cos(z)*G On a flat surface. N=G The coefficient of friction, whether static or kinetic, f is therefore: N=cos(z)*G*f
As you accelerate upward in an elevator, which force exerted on you has the greatest magnitude?
The force of gravity has the greatest magnitude on you as you accelerate upward in an elevator.
Is the force of gravity is a vector?
Yes. It results in a force that has a magnitude and a direction, and this is the definition of a force vector.
Is mass the magnitude of the force due to gravity on an object?
No mass is not the magnitude of the force due to gravity on an object. Mass is the stuff of which the object is composed. The magnitude of the gravitational forces between the object and Earth ... or whatever planet the object happens to be on ... is the object's "weight".
A force has both what?
A force is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
What force causes an object to have weight?
Gravity is the force that causes an object to have weight. The weight of an object is the gravitational force acting on it. The magnitude of the weight depends on the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity at that location.
What is magnitude in force and pressure?
Magnitude in force refers to the strength or intensity of a force, usually measured in units such as Newtons. In pressure, magnitude refers to the amount of force applied over a specific area, with units such as Pascals or PSI. Understanding the magnitude of force and pressure is crucial in determining their impact and effects on objects or materials.
What is the magnitude of the force of gravity on the skydiver with 845 N?
If you're telling us that the skydiver weighs 845 newtons, then that's the magnitudeof the forces of gravity between him and the Earth whenever he's near the Earth.
Is specific gravity a vector or scalar quantity?
Gravity is a force, and forces have magnitude and direction; hence, it is a vector.
What is the magnitude of the tension in the cord?
The magnitude of tension in a cord is the force exerted by the cord to maintain equilibrium in a system. It is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction at each end of the cord, keeping the system balanced. The tension is influenced by the weight of the objects the cord is supporting and any external forces acting on the system.
What is the magnitude of the force of gravity on a person who has a mass of 80.0 kg?
The magnitude of the force of gravity acting on a person with a mass of 80.0 kg is approximately 784.8 Newtons (N) on Earth. This is calculated using the formula F = m * g, where F is the force of gravity, m is the mass of the person, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth).
What is the amount of force required to lift an object against the force of gravity equal to?
The acceleration due to gravity (9.8 meters/sec.^2) * mass of object.
