A75 kg skydiver can be modeled as a rectangular "box" with dimensions 20 cm * 40 cm * 180 cm. what is his terminal speed if he falls feet first? use 0.8 for the drag coefficient.

Why are biogeochemical cycles important? earth is a closed system. that means the amount of rocks, metals, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and water on so, it is essential that biogeochemical these materials as they move through earth's subsystems.

Air flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.
