An isobaric process is a thermodynamic process in which the pressure stays constant: ΔP = 0. The heat transferred to the system does work, but also changes ... more
Three positive angles “A”, “B”, and “C”, each of them less than 180°, are the angles of a triangle if and only if ... more
Potential energy is the energy of a body or a system with respect to the position of the body or the arrangement of the particles of the system. The amount ... more
where Vt is the terminal velocity, m is the mass of the skydiver, g is the acceleration due to gravity, Cd is the drag coefficient, ρ is the density of the fluid through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object.

where h is skydiver height and w the width at “spread-eagle” position
A trajectory or flight path is the path that a moving object follows through space as a function of time. A trajectory can be described mathematically ... more
