Obtain a metric ruler. examine it carefully to determine its smallest interval. in this activity you are going to make measurements using this ruler. decide how many digits should be in the measurements you record. remember, you need to estimate one digit beyond the graduations on the ruler.

1point) a skydiver weighing 130 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 14,000 ft and opens the parachute after 20 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.85|v|0.85|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 17|v|17|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity vv is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. speed is 150.6121788 ft/s find the skydiver's height when the parachute opens. height is 2338.98591 ft find the limiting velocity vlvl after the parachute opens. (think about whether this should be positive or negative.) vl=vl= 7.647 ft/s

Simple machines can a. increase force only b. decrease force only c. increase or decrease force

Agroup of monkeys is trying to cross the river in a rowboat. the maximum buoyant force on the rowboat is 2,000 n. the weight of the rowboat is 1,000 n. each monkey has a weight of 150 n. how many monkeys can safely cross in the rowboat at one time? explain your reasoning, including any calculations you used to find the answer.
