What is drag? In what situations might it act on the force of gravity?

Drag is passive, therefore it does not act on gravity. Drag is a mechanical resistance to motion. If the motion in question was induced by gravity drag it can impede that motion, but has no effect on the gravity. 

hope this helps!

Answer:

Drag is a force of resistance that acts in fluid motion. When there is relative motion with respect to a fluid, a drag force acts in the opposite direction to the motion. Drag depends on viscosity, compressibility of the fluid and mass of the object.

When the sum of drag force and buoyant force are equal to the downward force of gravity, the object falls with a constant velocity known as terminal velocity.

At the end of the adiabatic expansion, the gas fills a new volume V₁, where V₁ > V₀. Find W, the work done by the gas on the
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

W=\frac{p_0V_0-p_1V_1}{\gamma-1}

Explanation:

An adiabatic process refers to one where there is no exchange of heat.

The equation of state of an adiabatic process is given by,

pV^{\gamma}=k

where,

p = pressure

V = volume

\gamma=\frac{C_p}{C_V}

k = constant

Therefore, work done by the gas during expansion is,

W=\int\limits^{V_1}_{V_0} {p} \, dV

=k\int\limits^{V_1}_{V_0} {V^{-\gamma}} \, dV

=\frac{k}{\gamma -1} (V_0^{1-\gamma}-V_1^{1-\gamma})\\

(using pV^{\gamma}=k )

=\frac{p_0V_0-p_1V_1}{\gamma-1}
