On a sky coaster (human pendulum) that reaches 10 meters from it's equilibrium position, a man of 120 kg is able to reach a maximum speed of
18m/s
14m/s
1200m/s
11m/s

14 m/s

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, assuming any losses.

Kinetic energy is given by ½mv²

Potential energy is given by mgh

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Equating kinetic energy to be equal to potential energy then

½mv²=mgh

V

Making v the subject of the formula

v=√(2gh)

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g and 10 m for h then

v=√(2*9.81*10)=14.0071410359145 m/s

Rounding off, v is approximately 14 m/s

the results is a decrease in air temperature with an increase of altitude.

explanation:

more than, less

less than, more
