How would the terminal velocity of a piece of tissue paper compare to the terminal velocity of a rock?

matrenka [14]

Answer: Rock require larger drag force and to achieve it rock need to move at a very high terminal velocity.

Explanation: Terminal velocity is defined as the final velocity attained by an object falling under the gravity. At this moment weight is balanced by the air resistance or drag force and body falls with zero acceleration i.e. with a constant velocity.

Case 1: Terminal velocity of a piece of tissue paper.

The weight of tissue paper is very less and it experiences an air resistance while falling downward under the effect of gravity.

Downward gravitational force, F = mg

Upward air resistance or friction or drag force will be $f_{1}$

So, paper will attain terminal velocity when mg = $f_{1}$

Case 2: Rock is very heavy and require larger air resistance to balance the weight of rock relative to the tissue paper case.

Downward force on rock, F = Mg

Drag force = $f_{2}$

Rock will attain terminal velocity when Mg = $f_{2}$

Mg > mg

so, $f_{2}$ > $f_{1}$

And rock require larger drag force and to achieve it rock need to move at a very high terminal velocity.

Technician A says that the freezing point of a substance is the temperature at which the substance changes state from a solid to

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Technician B is correct

Explanation:

Freezing is a method of conversion of substance in its liquid state to solid state. It is the process by which a liquid substance changes to a solid at a particular temperature.

Increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature of a liquid increases its freezing point. For example, in other to freeze water i.e to change water to ice, it has to be kept in a fridge at a temperature lower than the temperature of the water. The essence of covering the fridge after placing the water in the fridge is to increase the pressure of the liquid hence increasing its freezing rate.

Based on the above explanation, it can be concluded that technician B is correct.

Two cars A and B are moving with velocities 20 m/s and 15 m/s in the direction east and west respectively. If

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

<u>Distance</u><u> </u><u>between</u><u> </u><u>them</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>,</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>meters</u><u>.</u>

Explanation:

Consinder car A:

${ \bf{distance = speed \times time }}$

substitute:

$distance = 20 \times (2 \times 60) \\ = 2400 \: m$

Consider car B:

$distance = 15 \times (2 \times 60) \\ = 1800 \: m$

since these cars move in opposite directions, distance between them is their summation:

$distance \: between = { \sum(distance \: of \: each \: car)} \\ = 2400 + 1800 \\ = 4200 \: m$

A SI unit used to measure force, equal to less than one-quarter of a pound, is the what

bulgar [2K]

The SI unit of force is the Newton.

1 newton is the force that accelerates a 1 kilogram mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second².

1 pound of force is equivalent to roughly 4.448 newtons.

(1 newton is equivalent to roughly 0.225 pounds of force.)
