Answer:

Yes, air resistance decrease with speed

Explanation:

Air resistance is a kind of fluid friction that acts when objects flow through fluids. It is affected by the velocity of moving objects and the area of the objects. When an object moves with a greater velocity the air resistance acting on them will be high, so the speed decreases.

Fluid friction acts in fluids namely liquids and gases. In liquids the friction is called buoyancy and in gases it is called air resistance or drag. When two objects having the same mass but different area move through air, the object with larger area will have less velocity compared with the other object.

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

because when you slow down, the resistance slows with the speed.

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

2240.92365 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{−31}\ kg$

$v_1$ = Speed of electron = $5.7\times 10^7\ m/s$

$p_2$ = Neutrino has a momentum = $7.3\times 10^{-24}\ kg m/s$

M = total mass = $2.34\times 10^{-26}\ kg$

In the x axis as the momentum is conserved

$Mv_x=m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{m_1v_1}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{−31}\times 5.7\times 10^7}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2219.10256\ m/s$

In the y axis

$Mv_y=p_2\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{p_2}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{7.3\times 10^{-24}}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_y=311.96581\ m/s$

The resultant velocity is

$R=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{2219.10256^2+311.96581^2}\\\Rightarrow R=2240.92365\ m/s$

The recoil speed of the nucleus is 2240.92365 m/s
