Wind resistance _____ as speed increases.

Physics
2 answers:
Rudik [331]4 years ago

The correct option is option B that wind resistance increases dramatically.

Explanation:

When the speed of an object increases resistance increases drastically because the object pushing through air has obtained a high speed but the air is unable to move out of the way so fast so show it tends to get compressed and oppose the moving object and the object names to put more pressure because some of the pressure goes into cutting air and moving through it.

Answer:

B. increases dramatically

Explanation:

Wind resistance increases dramatically as the speed increases.

Resistance tends to prevent the motion of a body. When speed increases, the particles of air are set into motion and this energizes them. More air gains increased acceleration and they collide with a body. This initiates a resistance against the motion of such body. Therefore, wind resistance increases rapidly as speed increases.

Peter and Fred are skateboarding in a large semicircular halfpipe. Peter starts out from rest at a height h and collides with Fr
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The answer is h/4

Explanation:

When Peter collides with Fred, the collision is inelastic & they both proceed with a velocity of V/2.

let m represent the masses for Peter & Fred

v represent the initial velocity of Peter

V represent final velocity of both of them

mv + 3m × 0 = (m+m)V

V = v/2

Using the expression; H = v² / 2g .............Eqn 1

Upon substitution of V/2 into Eqn 1 above,

H = (V/2)² / 2g

H = (V²/4) ÷ 2g

Therefore height will be h/4

A partially filled bag of cement with mass of 16 kg falls 40 m into a river from a bridge. What is its speed just before it hits
Verizon [17]

Answer:

28 metres

Explanation:

when the bag is about to hit the ground

potential energy = kinetic energy

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

where m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

v = speed

when you simplify the above equation and make v subject of the formular we have

v=\sqrt{2gh}

where g = 9.8m/s

h = 40

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 40}=28m

Explain how water freezing and thawing causes weathering and the type of weathering it would be considered.
Nikitich [7]

Answer: Physical weathering is caused by the effects of changing temperature on rocks, causing the rock to break apart. The process is sometimes assisted by water. Freeze-thaw occurs when water continually sleeps into cracks, freezes and expands, eventually breaking the rock apart.
