When does a falling object reach terminal velocity?

1 answer:

5 0

At some speed, the drag or force of resistance will equal the gravitational pull on the object. At this point the object ceases to accelerate and continues falling at a constant speed called the terminal velocity (also called settling velocity).

A sound wave travels at 379 m/sec and has a wavelength of 8 meters. Calculate its frequency and period.

olga nikolaevna [1]

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

Wavelength, Wavespeed and frequency depends on each other in the following way :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: frequency = \dfrac{wave \: \: velocity}{wavelength}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: f = \dfrac{389}{8}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: f \approx 48.62 \: \: hertz$

And we know the Reciprocal relationship between frequency and period ~

So, let's find it's period •

$\sf{\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: t = \dfrac{8}{389}}$

$\sf{\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: t \approx 0.02 sec }$

Erwin Schrödinger developed the quantum model of the atom. What scientific knowledge was necessary for Schrödinger’s work?

Vikki [24]

The scientific knowledge was necessary for Schrödinger’s work is the discoverd of electron.

<h3>What is electron and how was it discovered?</h3>

Thomson carried out new experiments that led him to conclude that cathode rays were formed by particles that have a negative charge. Later, Thomson proved that these rays were deflected by applying an electric field. Thus, these particles were called electrons.

The discovery of the electron allowed Schrodinger to explain quantum models that are based on how electrons behave.

A fire breaks out and increases the Kelvin temperature of a cylinder of compressed gas by a factor of 2.4. What is the final pre

kherson [118]

Answer:

P(final) is 2.4 times P(initial).

Explanation:

Here we can assume that the cylinder did not break and it's volume and number of moles of gas present in the cylinder remains constant.

Given the temperature increases by a factor of 2.4. Let us assume that the initial temperature be $T_{1}$ and the final temperature be $T_{2}$ .
