Answer:
the pressure drop for the water flow is greater than that for the air flow.
Explanation:
Detailed analysis of the problem is show below.
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.
Answer:
For elliptical orbits: seldom
For circular orbits: always
Explanation:
We start by analzying a circular orbit.
For an object moving in circular orbit, the direction of the acceleration (centripetal acceleration) is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the object.
Since acceleration has the same direction of the force (according to Newton's second law of motion), this means that the direction of the force (the centripetal force) is always perpendicular to the velocity of the object.
So for a circular orbit,
the direction of the velocity of the satellite is always perpendicular to the net force acting upon the satellite.
Now we analyze an elliptical orbit.
An elliptical orbit correponds to a circular orbit "stretched". This means that there are only 4 points along the orbit in which the acceleration (and therefore, the net force) is perpendicular to the direction of motion (and so, to the velocity) of the satellite. These points are the 4 points corresponding to the intersections between the axes of the ellipse and the orbit itself.
Therefore, for an elliptical orbit,
the direction of the velocity of the satellite is seldom perpendicular to the net force acting upon the satellite.
Salt water offers the least electrical resistance.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Least electrical resistance indicates that any material which readily allows the electric current through itself, and shows more conductivity.
Here pure water doesn't contain any ions, so it is a bad conductor.
Wood and glass are also bad conductors of electricity.
Salt water contains ions, which conducts electricity which means it shows least electrical resistance.
