What is the speed of terminal velocity?

The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid. Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

A wave With wavelength 20 m has a frequency of 12 Hz what is the waves speed

pentagon [3]

Answer:

240m/s

Explanation:

The equation to calculate is wavelength= velocity/ frequency so to find the velocity you would have to multiply frequency by wavelength.

A jet plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. In 2.0 s it reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time taken $t=2\ s$

Speed acquired in 2 sec $v=42\ m/s$

Here initial velocity is zero $u=0$

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in a given time

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\frac{42-0}{2}=21\ m/s^2$

Distance travel in this time

$s=ut+0.5at^2$

where

s=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

$s=0+\0.5\times 21\times (2)^2$

$s=42\ m$

so Jet Plane travels a distance of 42 m in 2 s

A square plate of side 9 m is submerged in water at an incline of 60∘ with the horizontal. Its top edge is located at the surfac

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The force on one side of the plate is 3093529.3 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Side of square plate = 9 m

Angle = 60°

Water weight density = 9800 N/m³

Length of small strip is

$y=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\sin60}$

$y=\dfrac{2\Delta y}{\sqrt{3}}$

The area of strip is

$dA=\dfrac{9\times2\Delta y}{\sqrt{3}}$

We need to calculate the force on one side of the plate

Using formula of pressure

$P=\dfrac{dF}{dA}$

$dF=P\times dA$

On integrating

$\int{dF}=\int_{0}^{9\sin60}{\rho g\times y\times 6\sqrt{3}dy}$

$F=9800\times6\sqrt{3}(\dfrac{y^2}{2})_{0}^{9\sin60}$

$F=9800\times6\sqrt{3}\times(\dfrac{(9\sin60)^2}{2})$

$F=3093529.3\ N$

Hence, The force on one side of the plate is 3093529.3 N.

URGENTTT PLEASE HELPPPP. You put m1 = 1 kg of ice cooled to -20°C into mass m2 = 1 kg of water at 2°C. Both are in a thermally i

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

heat lost by water will be used to increase the temperature of ice

heat gained by ice

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

1 x 2090 x t

heat lost by water in cooling to 0° C

= mcΔt where m is mass of water , s is specific heat of water and Δt is fall in temperature .

= 1 x 2 x 4186

8372

heat lost = heat gained

1 x 2090 x t = 8372

t = 4°C

There will be a rise of 4 degree in the temperature of ice.
