In the sport of parasailing, a person is attached to a rope being pulled by a boat while hanging from a parachute-like sail. A rider is towed at a constant speed by a rope that is at an angle of 14° from horizontal. The tension in the rope is 2,480 N. The force of the sail on the rider is 27° from horizontal. What is the weight of the rider (in Newtons)?

Since you have not included the experiment situation and the data, of course, i can not give you specific details about it. but i can you with this question.1) i will assume that the motion is projectile (parabolic) motion.2) yes, the horizontal distance depends on the horizontal velocity as, naming vx the horizontal velocity and t the time, it is: x = vx × t3) now, observe that the flight time depends on the vertical velocity as, naming voy the initial vertical velocity, t the time and y the vertical distance before reaching the ground: y = yo + voy×t - gt² / 2.the higher the initial vertical velocity (voy) the longer the object will be flying and so t will be higher in the equation for the horizontal distance.that explains the relationship between the horizontal distance and the horizontal velocity.

B. products  hope it !

If you are a plato user the answer would be "a decrease in the overall volume of gases" i just completed the test and this was the answer. hope it ! (:
