You are out for a bicycle ride on a calm, windless day. You are heading northward on a level road and are experiencing a pressur

e drag force that pushes you toward the south. This air resistance explains why you have to keep pedaling to maintain your constant speed. If someone were to examine the air that you have left behind you after you have passed through it, they would find that the air's average velocity is
(A) zero and that it is calm.

(B) northward.

(C) zero but that it is swirling rapidly in all directions.

(D) southward.

A plane is flying east when it drops some supplies to a designated target below. The supplies land after falling for 10 seconds.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

solution:

As Given plane is flying in east direction.

It throws back some supplies to designated target.

Time taken by the supply to reach the target =10 seconds

g = Acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²[Taken negative as object is falling Downwards]

As we have to find distance from the ground to plane which is given by d.

d = \frac{1}{2}\times g\times t^2

 = \frac{1}{2}\times (9.8) \times(100) =50\times 9.8=490 meters

Distance from the ground where supplies has to be land  to plane  =  Option B =490 meters

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Velocity and speed both are continuously increasing.

Acceleration is constant.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as length of path covered by a body per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity that consist of magnitude only and not direction.

Velocity is defined as the displacement per unit times. Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. It is a vector quantity and  hence has a direction in the direction of displacement along with its own magnitude.

  • Both velocity and speed have same unit of measure which is meter per second in S.I. During <em>free fall</em> in the absence of any air resistance the velocity and speed both will be having a vertical downward direction with continuously increasing magnitude. Tough we are not concerned about the direction when discussing about speed but here both are equal since the motion is linear.

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of a body which is a vector quantity. For speed we are concerned about instantaneous acceleration since for a short period of time it may have a specific direction.

  • During free fall the acceleration is of a body is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and constant when the height of fall is much lesser than the radius of the earth.

A particular balloon can be stretched to a maximum surface area of 1257 cm2. The balloon is filled with 3.1 L of helium gas at a
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The ballon will brust at

<em>Pmax = 518 Torr ≈ 0.687 Atm </em>

<em />

<em />

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem we are going to use the ideal gass law

PV = nRT

Where n (number of moles) and R are constants (in the present case)

Therefore, we can relate to thermodynamic states with their respective pressure, volume and temperature.

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2} --- (*)

Our initial state is:

P1 = 754 torr

V1 = 3.1 L

T1 = 294 K

If we consider the final state at which the ballon will explode, then:

P2 = Pmax

V2 = Vmax

T2 = 273 K

We also know that the maximum surface area is: 1257 cm^2

If we consider a spherical ballon, we can obtain the maximum radius:

R_{max} = \sqrt{\frac{A_{max}}{4 \pi}}

Rmax = 10.001 cm

Therefore, the max volume will be:

V_{max} = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_{max}^3

Vmax = 4 190.05 cm^3 = 4.19 L

Now, from (*)

P_{max} = P_1 \frac{V_1T_2}{V_2T_1}

Therefore:

Pmax= P1 * (0.687)

That is:

Pmax = 518 Torr
