If a rock is dropped with a weight of 50kg and friction due to air resistance produces a force of 98n, what is the net force in the y direction?11 points

The net force is 392N, pointing down.

Explanation:

The net force is the sum of all forces acting on the rock, namely the gravity ("+" acting downward) and the friction force due to air resistance ("-" acting upward):

The net force is 392N and pointing down (positive)/

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
