I need help with air resistance...

Physics
1 answer:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
3 0
Mar 4, 2004 #1 FabioTTT the formula: R = (.5)DpAv^2 is used to determine how much air resistance (resistive force) is being placed on the object. R is the Resistive force. D is some dimensionless empirical quantity called the drag coefficient p is the density of air A is the cross-sectional area of the object (surface area) v is velocity My question is, is the density of air some constant that should be already given to me? also, how would i go about finding the drag coefficient? I'm asking this because in physics we're doing a lab in wich we drop a cofee filter... and we record its time to reach a certain height (which im guessing is to be able to calulate for the terminal velocity). So in other words, I have all of these variables except for R, D, and p. Can anyone help me out? Phys.org - latest science and technology news stories on Phys.org

Compare and contrast the two different types of mechanical waves?
prohojiy [21]
There are longitudinal and transverse.  Both types of mechanical waves require a medium, transport energy, and have defined wavelengths, frequencies, and speeds.
Differences are that transverse waves oscillate along a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel (like shaking a rope up and down).  Longitudinal waves like oscillations along a spring and sound waves, oscillate back and forth along the direction of travel.

What factors could enhance memory and kept constant? and why​
artcher [175]

To help make sure information goes from short-term memory to long-term memory, you can use memory-enhancing strategies. One strategy is rehearsal, or the conscious repetition of information to be remembered. Think about how you learned your multiplication tables as a child.

Proven ways to protect memory include following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, not smoking, and keeping blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar in check. Living a mentally active life is important, too. Just as muscles grow stronger with use, mental exercise helps keep mental skills and memory in tone.

According to one study, mental stimulation like reading can help protect memory and thinking skills, especially as you age. The authors even suggest that reading every day can slow down the late-life cognitive decline. ... The act of reading helps to heighten overall brain function and increase memory.

Let's take a deeper dive into evidence-based exercises that offer the best brain-boosting benefits.

Have fun with a jigsaw puzzle. ...

Try your hand at cards. ...

Build your vocabulary. ...

Dance your heart out. ...

Use all your senses. ...

Learn a new skill. ...

Teach a new skill to someone else. ...

Listen to or play music.
