Why are objects that fall near earth’s surface rarely in free fall?
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Because of the presence of air resistance

Explanation:

When an object is in free fall, ideally there is only one force acting on it:

- The force of gravity, W = mg, that pushes the object downward (m= mass of the object, g = acceleration of gravity)

However, this is true only in absence of air (so, in a vacuum). When air is present, it exerts a frictional force on the object (called air resistance) with upward direction (opposite to the motion of free fall) and whose magnitude is proportional to the speed of the object.

Therefore, it turns out that as the object falls, its speed increases, and therefore the air resistance acting against it increases too; as a result, the at some point the air resistance becomes equal (in magnitude) to the force of gravity: when this happens, the net acceleration of the object becomes zero, and so the speed of the object does not increase anymore. This speed reached by the object is called terminal velocity.

Tycho Brahe built the first what?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Brahe showed irregularities in the Moon's orbit and discovered a new star in the Cassiopeia formation. Brahe invented many instruments such as the Tyconian Quadrant which were widely copied and led to the invention of improved observational equipment. In 1600, Tyco Brahe hired Johannes Kepler as his assistant.

Why is it important to study solar flares?
andre [41]

In my opinion, solar flares are really cool to learn about because they are created by radiation from the sun and sun spots. Since solar flares happen in atmosphere, scientists learn about them and classify them in an interesting way. They do it by there strength so there are many different types. They are also many different colors you can find to. Hope this helped.

he fan blades on a jet engine make one thousand revolutions in a time of 54.9 ms. What is the angular frequency of the blades?
Gnesinka [82]

So, the angular frequency of the blades approximately <u>36.43π rad/s</u>.

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! Here I will discuss about the angular frequency or what is also often called the angular velocity because it has the same unit dimensions. <u>Angular frequency occurs, when an object vibrates (either moving harmoniously / oscillating or moving in a circle)</u>. Angular frequency can be roughly interpreted as the magnitude of the change in angle (in units of rad) per unit time. So, based on this understanding, the angular frequency can be calculated using the equation :

\boxed{\sf{\bold{\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}}}}

With the following condition :

  • \sf{\omega} = angular frequency (rad/s)
  • \sf{\theta} = change of angle value (rad)
  • t = interval of the time (s)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

  • \sf{\theta} = change of angle value = 1,000 revolution = 1,000 × 2π rad = 2,000π rad/s >> Remember 1 rev = 2π rad/s.
  • t = interval of the time = 54.9 s.

What was asked :

  • \sf{\omega} = angular frequency = ... rad/s

Step by step :

\sf{\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}}

\sf{\omega = \frac{2,000 \pi}{54.9}}

\boxed{\sf{\omega \approx 36.43 \pi \: rad/s}}

<h3>Conclusion :</h3>

So, the angular frequency of the blades approximately 36.43π rad/s.
