Dec 27, 2024 · I thought velocity was always a vector quantity, one with both magnitude and direction. When it came to the suvat equations, where v = final velocity, and u = initial velocity, …

Apr 20, 2014 · The terminal velocity will depend very much on how this person falls, how much of his body is exposed to the air resistance. Think of someone falling foot down making a straight …

Calculating Nozzle Flow Rate To work out the flow rate of water from a nozzle we need to work out the volume in a given period of time. To do this we work out the area of the nozzle and …

Sep 19, 2010 · To find the initial velocity of an object launched at a 33-degree angle that lands 85 meters away, the correct formula is range = v0^2 * sin (2θ) / g. The calculated initial velocity is …

Jul 18, 2014 · And since drag is proportional to velocity, both force will eventually be equal therefore, the object will not accelerate anymore, hence reaching terminal velocity. So why is it …

Jun 17, 2014 · To find the speed of a toy car at the top of a loop, energy conservation principles are applied, specifically the relationship between kinetic and potential energy. The car's initial …

Mar 23, 2010 · Homework Statement what are the units of the slope of a velocity^2 vs. centripetal force plot? and why should the line pass through the origin?Homework...

Jun 18, 2012 · However, friction is roughly proportional to velocity for a solid object moving at a low speed through a fluid. Why proportional to velocity at low speeds, but the square of …

Mar 2, 2014 · The discussion centers on the concept of velocity in relation to stationary objects, with one participant arguing that a stationary object can be said to have a constant velocity of …

Sep 13, 2013 · A diver jumps from a 3.00-meter high diving board with an initial upward velocity of 1.75 m/s. The calculated velocity upon reaching the water is 7.87 m/s, but it's important to note …
