What are two ways air resistance can be increased?

1 answer:

7 0

The increase in speed leads to an increase in the amount of air resistance. Eventually, the force of air resistance becomes large enough to balances the force of gravity. At this instant in time, the net force is 0 Newton; the object will stop accelerating. The object is said to have reached a terminal velocity.

How do particles move differently in transverse waves and in surface water waves?

elixir [45]

The particles always move parallel and perpendicular to the waves. The waves which are in the water moves a circle. Both up and down and back and forth.

Good luck :)

Most of an atom is empty space.<br> a. True<br> b. False

Iteru [2.4K]

<span>Yes, the vast majority of an atom is indeed empty space. Most of it's mass is centered in the nucleus. Flying around the nucleus are the electrons, but they're very very far away (on an atomic level anyway). Most of the atom is the space between the nucleus and the electrons.</span>

2. While standing near a bus stop, a student hears a distant horn beeping. The frequency emitted by the horn is 440 Hz. The bus

jarptica [38.1K]

Given Information:

Frequency of horn = f₀ = 440 Hz

Speed of sound = v = 330 m/s

Speed of bus = v₀ = 20 m/s

Answer:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student = 468.4 Hz

Explanation:

There are 3 cases in this scenario:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

Let us explore each case:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student:

Student will hear the same frequency emitted by the horn that is 440 Hz.

f = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330+20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 350 )

f = 440 ( 0.943 )

f = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330-20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 310 )

f = 440 ( 1.0645 )

f = 468.4 Hz

Some car manufacturers claim that their vehicles could climb a slope of 42 ∘. For this to be possible, what must be the minimum

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

D. 0.9

Explanation:

Calculating minimum coefficient of static friction, we first resolve the forces (normal and frictional) acting on the vehicle at an angle to the horizontal into their x and y components. After this, we can now substitute the values of x and y components into equation of static friction. Diagrammatic illustration is attached.

Resolving into x component:

∑ $F_{x} = F_{s} - mgsin\alpha =0$
