2.) We are on the space station, so there is no effective gravity. In a small fluid experiment, a small spherical bacteria of 1 mm radius is moving at a speed of +1.50 mm/second horizontally in the fluid. The bacteria has a density of 1500. kg/m^3.
(3a) Draw a free-body diagram, labeling all forces and show the likely direction of Fnet
(3b) What is the mass of the bacteria?
(3c) If the value of the viscosity is 1.25 kg/m/s, then what is the net acceleration experienced by the bacteria at that moment.
A body with a triangle shape in water has following main particulars:

On October 21, 2001, Ian Ashpole of the United Kingdom achieved a record altitude of 3.35 km (11,000 ft) powered by 600 toy balloons filled with helium. Each filled balloon had a radius of about 0.47 m and an estimated mass of 0.32 kg.
(a) Estimate the total buoyant force on the 600 balloons. (Enter your answer to at least two decimal places.) kN(b) Estimate the net upward force on all 600 balloons. kN(c) Ashpole parachuted to Earth after the balloons began to burst at the high altitude and the system lost buoyancy. Why did the balloons burst?
Atmospheric pressure at this high or low altitude is much lower or higher than at the Earth's surface.
