At a point on the streamline, Bernoulli's equation is
p/ρ + v²/(2g) = constant
where
p = pressure
v = velocity
ρ = density of air, 0.075 lb/ft³ (standard conditions)
g = 32 ft/s²
Point 1:
p₁ = 2.0 lb/in² = 2*144 = 288 lb/ft²
v₁ = 150 ft/s
Point 2 (stagnation):
At the stagnation point, the velocity is zero.
The density remains constant.
Let p₂ = pressure at the stagnation point.
Then,
p₂ = ρ(p₁/ρ + v₁²/(2g))
p₂ = (288 lb/ft²) + [(0.075 lb/ft³)*(150 ft/s)²]/[2*(32 ft/s²)
= 314.37 lb/ft²
= 314.37/144 = 2.18 lb/in²
Answer: 2.2 psi
There are no choices on the list you provided that make such a statement,
and it's difficult to understand what is meant by "the following".
That statement is one way to describe the approach to 'forces of gravity'
taken by the theory of Relativity.
Aerobie. Frisbee. Discus. Javelin. I suppose an American football to some extent.
<span>Pull! Clay pigeons. Arrows. Wingsuit. Kites. Hang gliders. Sails. sailboat keels/dagger boards. Water skis. Ski jumping skis. Boomerang. </span>
<span>I'm excluding spheres and parachutes as bluff bodies even though aerodynamics often plays a big part in their motion.</span>
Answer:
The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.
Explanation:
Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.
