How significant is air resistance for projectile motion?

Physics
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]3 years ago
8 0

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.

In a closed system, what happens to the total energy of the system as energy conversion takes place?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

In a closed system, the total energy is conserved or remains the same as energy transformations take place.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

This law of conservation of energy applies only to a closed system. A closed system is a system which does not exchange energy with its surroundings. All forms of energy conversions occurring within a closed system does not result in an increase or decrease of the total energy of the system, rather, energy remains constant. For example, the universe is a closed system in that all forms of energy conversions occurs within it and energy is not exchanged with an external environment. However, the earth is not a closed system as some of the energy it receives from the sun can be radiated out into space. Since it's an open system, its total energy can change.

What is the atomic number of this element?
Zina [86]
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons define the identity of an element (i.e., an element with 6 protons is a carbon

A positively charged particle 1 is at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system, and there are no other charged objects nearby
8090 [49]

Answer:

P=(2 nm, 8mn)

Explanation:

Given :

Position of positively charged particle at origin, O=(0\ nm,0\ nm)

Position of desired magnetic field, D\equiv(1\ nm,8\ nm)

Magnitude of desired magnetic field, E=0\ N.C^{-1}

Let q be the positive charge magnitude placed at origin.

<u>We know the distance between the two Cartesian points is given as:</u>

d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}

<u>For the electric field effect to be zero at point D we need equal and opposite field at the point.</u>

\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q}{r^2 } =\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q}{r^2 }

\therefore (1-0)^2+(8-0)^2=r^2

r^2=65\ nm

r=\sqrt{65}

as we know that the electric field lines emerge radially outward of a positive charge so the second charge will be at equally opposite side of the  given point.

assuming that the second charge is placed at (x,y) nano-meters.

Therefore,

x=2\times 1=2\ nm

and

y=2\times 8=16\ nm

When I wave a charged golf tube at the front of the classroom with a frequency of two oscillations per second, I produce an elec
borishaifa [10]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts of wavelength as a function of speed.

From the definition we know that the wavelength is described under the equation,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Where,

c = Speed of light (vacuum)

f = frequency

Our values are,

f = 2Hz

c = 3*10^8km/s

Replacing we have,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = \frac{3*10^8km/s}{2Hz}

\lambda = 1.5*10^8m

<em>Therefore the wavelength of this wave is 1.5*10^{8}m</em>
