Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the initial velocity of the object is greater?

Yes. Even greater. Air resistance or drag becomes harder the faster an object goes. This is why when cars reach their max speed they don't accelerate as fast, because they are pushing harder against the wind. If I take a tennis ball and shoot it down a bottomless pit, a 400 kph, the drag will slow the ball down till it reaches terminal velocity.

Depends on the object. Is it round? Is it a cube? Air resistance all depends on what kid of surface the object shows when it is falling, thus you have parachutes to stop your velocity from making you go splat.

Two particles collide, one of which was initially moving and the other initially at rest. Is it possible for both particles to b
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Not possible

Explanation:

Unless there's some extra external force to keep both particles at rest after the collision, the momentum must be conserved before and after the collision.

So before the collision, 1 particle is at rest, 1 not ->  total momentum is non-zero

After the collision, both particles are at rest -> total momentum is zero which is different from before.

Therefore this is not possible.

Having landed on a newly discovered planet, an astronaut sets up a simple pendulum of length 1.25 m and finds that it makes 419
Zina [86]

Answer:

g=2406.8m/s^{2}

Explanation:

firstly we have to find the frequency and then the angular frequency.

The frequency will be:

   f=\frac{419}{60} \\f=6.98Hz

The angular frequency is:

ω=2\pi f

ω=2*\frac{22}{7} *6.98

ω=43.88rad /sec

Now we can apply simple pendulum relationship

ω=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

make g the subject of the formula

g=w^{2} l\\g=43.88^{2} *1.25\\g=2406.8m/s^{2}
