Like the filters falling through the air, a car on the freeway represents an object with a high Reynolds number traveling throug

h a fluid. If you increase your speed from 50 mph to 75 mph, what is the percent change in the drag force that your car experiences (your fuel consumption will also roughly increase by this same percentage)?

Answer:

ΔF=125.22 %

Explanation:

We know that drag force on the car given as

F_D=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho C_DA v^2

C_D=Drag coefficient

A=Projected area

v=Velocity

ρ=Density

All other quantity are constant so we can say that drag force and velocity can be given as

\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}

Now by putting the values

\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}

\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=\dfrac{50^2}{75^2}

\dfrac{F_D_1}{F_D_2}=0.444

Percentage Change in the drag force

\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-F_D_1}{F_D_1}\times 100

\Delta F=\dfrac{F_D_2-0.444F_D_2}{0.444F_D_2}\times 100

\Delta F=\dfrac{1-0.444}{0.444}\times 100

ΔF=125.22 %

Therefore force will increase by 125.22  %.

A surveyor is using a magnetic compass 5.6 m below a power line in which there is a steady current of 140 A. (a) What is the mag
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

(a) B = 5.6 micro Tesla

Explanation:

Current in the wire, i = 140 A

distance, r = 5 m

The formula for the magnetic field at a distance r due to the current carrying wire

B=\frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2i}{r}

B=10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times140}{5}

B = 5.6 x 10^-6 Tesla

B = 5.6 micro Tesla

(b) As the magnetic field of earth at this site is 20 micro tesla so the magnetic field due to current carrying wire interfere the magnetic compass.

When you lift an object, you add the energy of lifting to the object.<br> Tor F
PtichkaEL [24]

It's true, when we lift an object we add energy to it.

because, when we lift an object by applying force , the object attains a height and hence the energy gets stored in it, in the form gravitational potential energy .

Forces can act on an object in the same direction or in opposite. how does each situation affect the motion of the object?
Anon25 [30]



Hi pupil here's your answer ::




➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡



Action and Reaction do not act on the same body !! If they acted on the same body, the resultant force will be zero and their could be never accelerated motion.

If both the forces acted on the same body, then if they are equal to opposite direction the object will remain stationary. If on of the forces is greater than other the object will move in the direction of greater force.

If both acted in the same direction there would be an accelrated motion.

A circuit contains a 1.5 volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 3 ohms. Calculate the current
Vitek1552 [10]

The formula that links voltage (V), resistance (R) and current intensity (I) is

V=RI

Solve this formula for I to get

I=\dfrac{V}{R}

Plug your values for V and R and you'll get the current.
