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

Physics
1 answer:
mixas84 [53]2 years ago

<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>

Determine a formula for the acceleration of the system in terms of mA, mB, θ, and g. Ignore the mass of the cord and pulley. Exp
jekas [21]

Answer:

a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB}

Explanation:

Given two mass on an incline code mA and mB and an angle of inclination \theta. g. Assume that mA is the weight being pulled up and mB the hanging weight.

-The equations of motion from Newton's Second Law are:

mBg-T=mBa where a is the acceleration.

#Substituting for T (tension) gives:

mBg-mAsin\theta-mAa=mBa

#and solving for a:

a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB} which is the system's acceleration.

Label the producers and consumers, then label the different types of consumers.
sdas [7]
The base of the pyramid has the producers and everything else above the base falls under the consumers category i.e the locusts,frogs and the snake. The grass is the producer, the locust is a consumer, the frog is a special type of omnivore, termed the "life-history omnivore" since they eat both plants and animals but at different times in their lives. In this case they are just omnivores and lastly, the snake is a carnivore.

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h =  541.2 J

m =  541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

When a cannon fires a cannonball, the cannon will recoil backward because the:
gulaghasi [49]

C) total linear momentum of the ball and cannon is conserved.

Basically it happens that in the beginning before there is a momentum acting on the two bodies, these are a unique system. Here the total momentum of the System is 0. However, when the positive momentum of the cannonball is added, the system will be immediately affected by a negative momentum which will pull back the cannon. Could this be extrapolated as a condition of Newton's third law.
