In which situation is the object experiencing balanced forces? A) A girl swings on a swing at the playground. B) A car brakes as it approaches a traffic light. C) A sled speeds up as it slides down a snow-covered hill. D) A sky diver reaches terminal velocity when he stops accelerating.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer;

D) A sky diver reaches terminal velocity when he stops accelerating.

Explanation;

  • Balanced forces are forces that act in opposite directions and are equal in size. When an object is acted upon by unbalanced forces then the object stays still or at rest or continues moving at a constant velocity in the same direction.
  • Unbalanced forces cause an object or a body to change its motion or velocity and direction.
  • A sky diver who reaches terminal velocity when he stops accelerating, experiences balanced forces. Terminal velocity being a point at which the drag force is equal to the force of gravity.
Answer 2
Answer: D) A sky diver reaches terminal velocity when he stops accelerating.
F = mass*gravity = Force of air resistance pushing up on the person
Reached terminal velocity = acceleration = zero

What differences would you expect to see in a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes experience crossing-over frequently compared with a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes do not cross over? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

For the answer to the question above asking what differences would you expect to see in a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes experience crossing-over frequently compared with a population made up of individuals whose chromosomes do not cross over? My answer is that I'd expect a larger gene pool and more diversity in the population whose chromosomes frequently cross-over or much more genetic variability. 
for example different phenotypes are most likely exhibited.

Answer:

theres more diversity in the population whose chromosomes frequently cross-over or much more genetic variability.  for example different phenotypes are most likely exhibited.

Wind power creates _____ pollution.

Answers

Answer: Wind power creates Noise pollution.

Wind power is a renewable resource as it is easily replenished within due course of time. It is used to generate electricity. For this, it uses large turbines which consist of mechanical device called the propeller. This device rotates with high speed in order to push against air. This creates sound waves which cause considerable effects in the nearby population. Sound waves may cause headache, psychological problems, nausea and other harmful effects.

In this way, wind power creates noise pollution.
