What is the speed of terminal velocity?

Physics

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 .

If you can walk 3 miles per hour, how much is that in meters per second?
deff fn [24]

To convert 3 miles per hour into m/s, first we have to convert miles in to meter and then hour in to second.

As 1 miles = 1.609344 km = 1.609344\times 10^3 m = 1609.3 m and1 hour=60 minutes = 60\times 60= 3600s

Therefore,

3 miles/ h=\frac{3\times1609.3m}{3600s} =1.34 m/s

Simple physics question, check the document. Should take about 3-5 minutes.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force that the 6.3 kg block exerts on the 4.3 kg block is approximately 41.9 N

Explanation:

Forces on block 4.3 kg are:

63N to the right and R21 (contact force from the 6.3 kg block) to the left

Net force on 4.3 kg block is: 63 N - R21

Forces on the 6.3 kg block are:

R12 to the right (contact force from the 4.3 kg block) and 11 N to the left.

So net force on the 6.3 kg block is: R12 - 11 N

According to the action-reaction principle the contact forces R21 and R12 must be equal in magnitude (let's call them simply "R").

Then, since the blocks are moving with the SAME acceleration, we equal their accelerations:

a1 = (63 N - R)/4.3 = (R - 11 N)/6.3 = a2

solve for R by cross multiplication

6.3 (63 - R) = 4.3 (R - 11)

396.9 - 6.3 R = 4.3 R - 47.3

369.9 + 47.3 = 10.6 R

444.2 = 10.6 R

R = 444.2 / 10.6

R = 41.90 N

Ohm's law relates the current, voltage, and resistance in a circuit. Use Ohm's law to determine what will happen to the remainin
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

   R = ½ R₀

Explanation:

This is an exercise in Ohm's law,

           V = IR

in the initial case

           V₀ = I₀ R₀               (1)

indicates that the voltage remains constant and the current is doubled

             I = 2 I₀

           V₀ = I R

             

we substitute

           V₀ = 2 I₀ R

            R = ½ V₀ / I₀

we replace by equation 1

            R = ½ R₀
