Scientists in a test lab are testing the hardness of a surface before constructing a building. calculations indicate that the entire structure would sink by a certain amount for every additional floor that is added. if the maximum permissible limit for depression of the structure is 20 centimeters, how many floors can be safely added to the building?

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

One kind of e-book display consists of millions of very small spheres that float in a thin fluid layer between two conducting transparent plates. each sphere is black on one side and white on the other, and possesses an electric dipole moment directed from the white side to the black. when an electric field is applied between the plates, the spheres rotate so that their dipole moment lines up with the field. depending on the fields direction, either the black or the white sides of th espheres can be made visible.the dipole moment of the spheres can be modeled as two opposite charges of magnitude 3.5 x 10^-15 c, separated by a distancce of 100 micrometers (um). what is the maximum possible torque on a sphere if the electric field between the transparent plates is 4.0 x 10^5 n/c
