Answer:

Air resistance have some significant role in projectile motion if the motion lasts for some time.

Explanation:

Air resistance or air drag seems to be important in daily actvities and games like baseball.

The trajectory of the projectile with or without air resistance or air drag is totally different.

When we neglect air drag, the only acting force is gravity against the motion so the maximum height and range are suppose Hmax and R.

Now, when we consider air drag, it is important to notice that there are two forces against the motion of the ball and along the direction of gravity. It seems that both maximum height and range are lesser Hmax'< Hmax and R'<R.

Answer:

1. Motion

2. Empty space

3. Far apart

4. Independently

5. Random or rapid

6. Collision

7. Kinetic energy

8. Atmospheric

9. 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius

10. 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are;

I. Gas.

II. Solid.

III. Liquid.

Filling the missing words or texts in the question, we have;

The kinetic theory describes the motion of particles in matter and the forces of attraction between them. The theory assumes that the volume occupied by a gas is mostly empty space, that the particles of gas are relatively far apart, move independently of each other, and are in constant random or rapid motion. The collision between particles are perfectly elastic so that the total kinetic energy remains constant. Gas pressure results from the simultaneous collisions of billions of particles with an object. Barometers are used to measure atmospheric pressure. Standard conditions are defined as a temperature of 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius and a pressure of 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg.

The magnetic field at 8 cm distance from a long straight wire, carrying is 0.2x10^-5 T. How much is the electric current in the

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The electric current in the wire is 0.8 A

Explanation:

We solve this problem by applying the formula of the magnetic field generated at a distance by a long and straight conductor wire that carries electric current, as follows:

$B=\frac{2\pi*a }{u*I}$
