What are the applications of air resistance?
Air resistance provides force against an object to create a desired outcome. An advantage of air resistance is to limit forward momentum of the object.
One situation in which gravitational potential energy is useful?
A roller coaster
What is importance of air resistance?
Air resistance is the force exerted on an object when it travels through an atmosphere. It can be used to slow objects down, such as skydivers, however in most applications, the object is to avoid air resistance. Vehicles, such as a Toyota Prius, or air planes, such as a commercial jet, strive to avoid air resistance (or become more aerodynamic) as a way to decrease fuel consumption or increase maximum speed. Air resistance increases exponentially with an object's velocity.
What is air resistance reduced by?
Air resistance is reduced by reducing the surface area of an object facing the air flow, making it more streamlined. Additionally, objects with smooth surfaces experience less air resistance compared to objects with rough surfaces. Increasing the velocity of the object can also help in reducing air resistance.
What one of these is not a force gravity magnetism electricity or air resistance?
Electricity is not a force. The others are.
How is streamlining useful?
In believing in god, one can understand everything.

Why is air resistance bad?
Air resistance is neither good nor bad, it is simply a factor. Air resistance costs us in terms of performance, a car with high wind resistance gets lower mileage than one with less; but without air resistance planes would not fly at all.

What affect does air resistance have on cars?
a negative one. they wont run with out air
What are facts about air resistance?
What type of friction is air resistance?fluid friction. Air resistance is fluid friction. Air resistance occurs between the surface of a falling object and the air that surrounds it. Rolling friction occurs when a rounded surface moves over a solid and sliding friction occurs when a solid moves over another solid. Static friction occurs when a solid touches another solid but there is no movement.What two factors affect air resistance?size and shape. Size and shape are the two factors that affect air resistance. Air resistance works with surface area, so the more surface area, the more air resistance. Think about when you drop two pieces of paper: one crumpled and one flat. The crumpled one falls faster because there is less air resistance acting on the paper.
How are friction and air resistance different?
air resistance is different from friction because friction is more than one thing because there is many different types of friction air restance is one of those types of friction.

What are the advantages of resistance?
Well, one advantage is, that when debris falls from space, air resistance creates a friction to burn it away... - Levizy

Name one situation in which gravitational potential might be useful and name one where it might be dangerous?
Bad- falling off a building
