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.

A 91.0-kg hockey player is skating on ice at 5.50 m/s. another hockey player of equal mass, moving at 8.1 m/s in the

never [62]

The momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

The given data in the problem is;

(m₁) is the mass of hockey player 1= 91.0-kg

(m₂) is the mass of hockey player 2= 91.0-kg

(u₁) is the velocity before collision of hockey player 1 = 5.50 m/s.

(u₂) is the velocity before the collision of hockey player 2=?

Momentum before the collision;

$\rm m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 \\\\ 91.0 \times 5.50 + 91.0 \times 8.1 \\\\ 1237.6 kg m/s^2$

Momentum before the collision = 1237.6 kg m/s².

The velocity of the two hockey players after the collision from the law of conservation of the momentum as:

Momentum before collision = Momentum after the collision

1237.6 kg m/s² = (m₁+m₂)V

1237.6 kg m/s² =(2 ×91.0-kg )V

V=6.8 m/sec.

Hence, momentum before the collision velocity after the collision will be 1237.6 kg m/s² and 6.8 m/sec.

The main purpose of an air bag is to stop a passenger during a car accident in a greater amount of time than if the air bag were

Simora [160]

Answer:

a) 45571 N

b) 22786 N

c) 4557 N

Explanation:

Since the goal of the airbag is helping the person to stop after the collision in a greater time, this means that the change in momentum must finish when this is just zero.
In other words, the change in momentum, must be equal to the initial one, but with opposite sign.

$\Delta p = - p_{o} = -m*v = -55 kg*29m/s = -1595 kgm/s (1)$

Now, just applying the original form of Newton's 2nd Law, we know that this change in momentum must be equal to the impulse needed to stop the person:

$\Delta p = F* \Delta t (2)$

So, as we know the magnitude of Δp from (1) and we have different Δt as givens, we can get the different values of F (in magnitude) required to stop the person for each one of them, as follows:

$F_{1} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t_{1}} = \frac{1595kgm/s}{0.035s} = 45571 N (3)$

$F_{2} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t_{2}} = \frac{1595kgm/s}{0.07s} = 22786 N (4)$

$F_{3} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t_{3}} = \frac{1595kgm/s}{0.35s} = 4557 N (5)$

What is the energy in joules of a mole of photons associated with red light of wavelength 7.00 × 102 nm?

konstantin123 [22]

<span>The energy of a single photon is given by E = hc/lambda, where h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, and lambda is the wavelength. Plugging the values in gives E = 6.63E-34 x 3.00E8 / 700E-9 = 2.84E-19 Joules Now one mole of substance is equivalent to 6.02E23 particles, so one mole of these photons will be: 2.84E-19 x 6.02E23 = 1.71E5 Joules</span>

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

$f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}$ .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

$f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}$ .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz

calculate earths velocity of approach toward the sun when earth in its orbit is at an extremum of the latus rectum through the s

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

Calculate Earths velocity of approach toward the sun when earth in its orbit is at an extremum of the latus rectum through the sun, Take the eccentricity of Earth's orbit to be 1/60 and its Semimajor axis to be 93,000,000

answer : V = 1.624* 10^-5 m/s

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the value of a

a = 93 * 10^6 mile/m * 1609.344 m

= 149.668 * 10^8 m

next we will express the distance between the earth and the sun

$r = \frac{a(1-E^2)}{1+Ecos\beta }$ --------- (1)

a = 149.668 * 10^8

E (eccentricity ) = ( 1/60 )^2

$\beta$ = 90°

input the given values into equation 1 above

r = 149.626 * 10^9 m

next calculate the Earths velocity of approach towards the sun using this equation

$v^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 }{r_{c} }$ ------ (2)

Note :

Rc = 149.626 * 10^9 m

equation 2 becomes

( $V^2 = (\frac{4\pi^{2} }{149.626*10^9})$

therefore : V = 1.624* 10^-5 m/s
