True or false:In free fall the object with less air resistance falls with a greater acceleration

Physics
2 answers:
Yuki888 [10]3 years ago

Air resistance is an upward force, so it subtracts from the force of gravity.  If two objects are falling, then the one with less air resistance feels more of the force of gravity, and falls with greater acceleration. <em>(True)</em>

This is not "free fall".  The definition of 'free fall' is the situation where the ONLY force on the object is the force of gravity.  If there's any air resistance, then it's not 'free fall'.

It should be true, the air resistance of the other one would fall slower.

Pilots often take advantage of the ____,which are highly-speed winds between 7km and 16 km above earths surface.
lukranit [14]
I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!

The atomic mass of an atom do not contain electrons because
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Electrons are so small that it does not affect the mass of atom .

Explanation:

Electrons are much smaller in mass than protons, weighing only 9.11 × 10^-28 grams, or about 1/1800 of an atomic mass unit. Therefore, they do not contribute much to an element's overall atomic mass.

How do I solve number 2? Can someone please help?
Zigmanuir [339]

The rock is kicked horizontally off the cliff at 20 m/s.  

There's no air resistance, and gravity has no effect on horizontal motion.  There's no horizontal force acting on the rock to make it move horizontally slower or faster than 20 m/s, so it keeps moving horizontally at 20 m/s.

It's in the air for 7 seconds before it hits the ground.  Moving horizontally at 20 m/s for 7 seconds, it sails (20 x 7) = 140 meters horizontally away from the cliff.
