Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the mass is greater?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>NO.

Air resistance does not affect the motion of a falling object differently when the mass is greater because the mass of an object does not in any way affect the speed of falling due to gravity, and air resistance depends only on the speed of the object and its surface area.</span>

A 2.26 kg book is dropped from a height 1.5m what is its acceleration

Arada [10]

The answer is 9.8 ms^-2, because there is only one force acting on the object so the acceleration will be numerically equal to the gravitational field strength.

When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to a larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some p

Savatey [412]

Answer:

c. The coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of static friction

Explanation:

When the box finally does break loose. Then the component of the box weight which is parallel to the board weight parallel component, is equal to the $\mu_gn$ .

$w_{box}=\mu_gn$

For the box to acce;erate thee must be non-zero net force acting on the box parallel to the board. Or we can say,

$w_1>f_g\\w_1>\mu_gn$

Therefore the force of kinetic friction must be less than the force of static friction. Thus,

$\mu_g$

Do you think that solids can undergo convection? EXPLAIN!

Katarina [22]

<span>No. Solids can't undergo convection, the reason is that convection works because moving molecules which are hotter and faster have a lower density and therefore rise to the surface. With a solid now, the molecules don't move they can only vibrate.

Therefore solids conduct.</span>
