C. Africa

Explanation:

The data given on the graph shows that:

Asia will grow from around 1,300 million to 5,000 million in 2050 which is an increase of:

= 5,000 /1,300 = 3.84 times

Europe will decrease over that period.

Africa will go from around 300 million to 2,000 million which is an increase of:

= 2,000 / 300

= 6.67 times

Mexico

, Central America, Caribbean Islands:

= 900 / 120

= 7.5 times

United States,  Canada, and Greenland:

= 400/120

= 3.33

Oceania:

= 50 / 13

= 3.85

From the options give, Africa will see the greatest increase at 6.67 times its population in 1950.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
