i'd say false, is this for health or lifeskills?
Distance is 50 km
Displacement is 10 km
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Distance toward south, x = 25 km
Distance towards west, y = 10 km
Distance towards north, z = 15 km
(a) Total distance, D = ?
Total distance, D = x + y + z
D = 25 + 10 + 15
D = 50km
(b) Displacement, d = ?
Displacement = final position - initial position
= 10 - 0 km
= 10km
Answer:
44.7 N
Explanation:
The gravitational force between the objects is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
m and M are the masses of the two objects
r is the distance between the centres of the two objects
In this problem, we have:
is the mass of the sphere
is the Earth's mass
is the Earth's radius, while h=310 km is the altitude of the sphere, so the distance of the sphere from Earth's centre is
Substituting into the equation, we find
Answer:
D. is greater for turbulent flow than for laminar flow
Explanation:
what is friction drag?
- friction drag is a phenomenon experienced when a body moves through a fluid. A practical example can be seen in the mild warmth we experience rubbing the palm's of one's hand together only in this case we are dealing with a solid body and a fluid (e.g air, water). friction drag is directly proportional to the area of the surface in contact with the fluid and increases as velocity increases. We see a practical example of this when the rate at which one rubs the palms together is fast but we use the word turbulent when we are dealing with fluids. Turbulent flow creates more friction drag than laminar flow( Flow between a smooth body and fluid) due to its greater interaction with the surface of the body
- it is important to know that friction is also called viscous drag or skin drag
- I recommend Richardson and coulson vol 2 textbook, page 149, Chemical enginering fluid mechanics textbook by Ron dardy, page 341 for clearer explanation
