If you removed air resistance would objects fall with constant acceleration?

Yes. Neglecting the effects of air resistance, all objects near the surface of the earth fall with the same constant acceleration, regardless of their mass/weight.


Why are objects seen more clearly in a distance after rain?

This is because the dust particles are removed after rain


What is phosphorescent light?

Ever after the light falling on the substance is removed the substance continues glowing. This property is known as phosphorescence.


Do objects of the same mass but of different shapes fall at the same rate?

All objects are equally influenced under the effect of gravity, no matter what size 'surface area', what mass or shape. All objects accelerate at 9.8 m/s assuming there is no air resistance. However every object is differently affected under the influence of air resistance. e.g. objects with greater surface would have slower speed through the air.


Why do some things move and at times faster than the others?

Why Do Some Objects Fall Faster Than Others?Science Projects for BeginnersPhysical ScienceWhy Do Some Objects Fall Faster Than Others?Do Objects Float Better in Salt Water Than in Fresh Water?Gravity is a major player in the study of physical science. It is, of course, the force of gravity that causes objects to fall. One object always exerts a force of attraction on another object. This force of attraction is a pull, like the pull of gravity.The larger an object is, the greater is the force of its attraction. Consider the fact that the sun, which is much, much larger than the earth, can, even at 90 million miles away, hold the earth and the other eight planets in orbit.Scientific SurpriseAstronauts who have walked on the moon feel light and weightless because there is very little gravity holding them down. On the other hand, if they were to go to Jupiter, which has much more gravity than the earth, they wouldn't even be able to lift a foot off the ground.The moon, on the other hand, is much smaller than the earth, and has only about one-sixth of the gravity of the earth.It was Italian scientist Galileo Galilei who formulated the laws of accelerated motion and free-falling objects. He found that when an object is dropped and falls to the ground it has a falling rate of 9.8 meters per second, squared.You may wonder, then, why feathers float gently in the breeze instead of falling to the ground quickly, like a brick does.Well, it's because the air offers much greater resistance to the falling motion of the feather than it does to the brick. The air is actually an upward force of friction, acting against gravity and slowing down the rate at which the feather falls.The brick, on the other hand, can cut right through the air as if it didn't exist. Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance.A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly. If a feather and a brick were dropped together in a vacuum-that is, an area from which all air has been removed-they would fall at the same rate, and hit the ground at the same time.Understanding these basic facts will help you to be able to answer the question of why some objects fall faster than others.You can test the rate at which various objects fall, noting both the mass of each object, and how long it takes for it to fall. Be sure to drop all objects from the same height, and be careful to use only objects that can't break. Record all your information in a journal, and chart your results.Conduct three trials for each object so that you can calculate an average time.

Do air molecules affect the speed of falling objects?

Yes. It's called wind resistance and is the reason why paper falls slower than a rock. If two objects are put in a perfect vacuum, where all of the air is removed, a feather will fall as fast as a one ton weight. Gravity effects all objects in the same way, and wind resistance is the only reason they fall at different rates.

Why the load must be removed when to conduct the insulation and resistance testing?

explain why all the load must be removed when to conduct the insulation and resistance testing


When one load is removed from a parallel circuit the total resistance decreases?

No, the total resistance increases.


How maximum output power obtained?

when all the resistance removed from the circuit


Do all objects accelerate the same when they are dropped?

If we are to neglect air resistance, then yes. There is a video of the Apollo 15 astronauts putting this to the test on the moon, using a feather and a hammer. When the astronaut drops the objects, they hit the ground at the same time. The video is on YouTube.


When the resistor removed from a parallel connection of the circuit whether the resistance increase or decrease?

if we remove a resistor from the parallel connection the effective resistance value will be increased.


What do after having your appendix removed?

When the appendix is removed it is usually due to appendicitis. The doctor will recommend that you do not lift heavy objects for 6 weeks, and not allow the stitches to get wet.

What is the differences between magnet and magnetism?

Paramagnetism refers to materials like aluminum or platinum which become magnetized in a magnetic field but their magnetism disappears when the field is removed. Ferromagnetism refers to materials (such as iron and nickel) that can retain their magnetic properties when the magnetic field is removed and kifjkjf
