Questions And Answers About Air Resistance.

Question 1: What is Air resistance?

Answer: Air resistance is a force that is caused by air. The force acts in the opposite direction to an object moving through the air. A lorry with a flat front will experience high air resistance while a sports car with a streamlined shape will experience lower air resistance, allowing the car to go faster.

Question 2: What causes air resistance?

Answer: Air resistance, also known as drag, is a force that is caused by air, the force acts in the opposite direction to an object moving through the air. It is where air particles hit the front of the object slowing it down. The more surface area, the more air particles hit it and the greater the resistance.

Question 3: How can air resistance be overcome?

Answer: Two ways to reduce air resistance are stated: reducing the area in contact with air (by the cyclist ducking down or cycling behind someone else) and by being more streamlined (wearing smoother surfaces or a more streamlined helmet).

Question 4: What happens when air resistance increases?

Answer: As it gains speed, the object's weight stays the same but the air resistance on it increases. There is a resultant force acting downwards. Eventually, the object's weight is balanced by the air resistance. There is no resultant force and the object reaches a steady speed – this is known as the terminal velocity.

Questions And Answers About Water Resistance.

Question 1: What is Water resistance?

Answer: Water resistance is a type of force that uses friction to slow things down that are moving through water. ... Water resistance occurs because of the particles in the liquid. As an object moves through a liquid, it collides with the particles which cause it to slow down.

Question 2: What causes water resistance?

Answer: Water resistance doesn't have to be just water, however, it can happen to objects moving through any type of fluid. Water-resistance happens because of the particles in water or the fluid. As the object moved through it collides with the particles which try to slow it down.

Question 3: How is water resistance useful?

Answer: Like friction and air resistance, it SLOWS THINGS DOWN, trying to stop them from moving. Water resistance can also be useful at times. When you are swimming and you push against the water with your hands, the water-resistance pushes back and helps you to move forward. This also happens when you use oars to row a boat.

Question 4: Does water-resistant mean waterproof?

Answer: The technical definition of water-resistant is that it's able to resist the penetration of water to a certain degree, but not entirely. Waterproof technically means that it's impermeable to water, no matter how much time it spends in the water.

A major artery with a 1.7 cm2 cross-sectional area branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross-sectional area

Answer:

0.14

Explanation:

Flow rate is the volume flowing through a point at a particular time, in calcuing flow rate we have

Q= v*t

it in terms of Area, we have Q= A*v

Where A= area

v= velocity.

Solving the question , flow rate is constant then

A*v= constant

A(i) v(i)= A(f) v(f)

Where A(i)= initial area= 1.00cm^2

A(f)= final area= 0.400cm^2

V(i) and V(f) are the initial and final velocity respectively and the ratio of the two will gives us the factor

Substitute the values into the equation we have

1 V(i)= 4 V(f)

But we were told that the cross sectional area of 1.00cm^2 branches into 18 smaller arteries.

Then

1 V(i)=0.4 V(f)*(18)

1 V(i)=7.2V(f)

Then if we find the ratio of the velocity, we will get the factor.

V(f)/V(i)= 1/7.2

V(f)/V(i)=0.14

Hence, the factor of the average velocity of the blood reduced when it passes into these branches is 0.14

A skater with an initial speed of 7.30 m/s stops propelling himself and begins to coast across the ice, eventually coming to res

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a. a= 1.029 ms⁻²

b. S=25.89 m

Explanation:

given

initial speed is u = 7.30 m/sec

final speed is v = 0 m/sec

mu_k = 0.105

kinetic frictional force is Fk = mu_k×m×g

mu_k×m×g = m×a

m cancels

mu_k×g = a

deccelaration a = mu_k×g = 0.105×9.8 =1.029 ms⁻²

b) using v²-u² = 2aS

0²-7.3² = -2×1.029×S

53.29=2.058×S

S = 53.29/2.058

S=25.89 m

What has alternating electric and magnetic fields that travel in the form of a wave?

8_murik_8 [283]

Option (B)is correct.

Alternating electric and magnetic fields has electromagnetic radiation that travel in the form of a wave.

The varying or alternating electric field produces the varying magnetic field.This varying magnetic field in turn produces varying electric field . Thus these varying electric and magnetic fields travel in the form of electromagnetic waves. These electromagnetic waves travel with the velocity of light.These are transverse in nature.

Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by _______ objects that travel in straight paths. *

Gelneren [198K]

Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.
