An object in free fall does what till it reaches the ground?
I am not sure because I am only 12, but if it is possible the object may rotate and eventually reach the terminal velocity. It will then start to spin faster and when it hits the ground it may break, disinigrate, or some other form of weathering. I hope this was helpful.
What happen when a tornado funnel reaches the ground?
It becomes a tornado, obviously.
What happens if tornadoes hit the ground?
It is only when the circulation reaches the ground that it is considered a tornado. Prior to that it is merely a funnel cloud.
Why increase friction?
You would increase friction so that you wouldn't slip, by using the brakes on your car of bike you increase friction to stop yourself. Hikers increase friction between their feet and the ground by wearing hiking shoes that grip the ground better. Tires on cars that create more friction make the car go faster, because instead of sliding, the tires grip the ground and push off.
When does a tornado actually become a tornado?
A tornado becomes a tornado when the circulation reaches the ground.
Is a penguin faster than a monkey?
It depends on if the monkeys in the trees or on the ground or if the penguin is sliding on its belly or standing but if they were standing I'd say the monkey is faster.
When does sliding friction occur?
Sliding Friction Occurs When And Object Is Being Slided On The Ground
Which lands faster on the ground a meteor or a meteorite?
A meteor is what we see in the sky. If it does not completely burn up in the atmosphere and reaches Earth it becomes known as a meteorite. So only meteories actually land on the ground.
If a man parachutes from 5000 ft and another from 2500 ft which man will be falling faster when he reaches the ground?
They will both reach terminal velocity before reaching the ground, and will have the same speed (assuming identical parachutes etc.)
What would the name of a developing tornado be before it reaches to the ground?
Before it reaches the ground a developing tornado is known as a funnel cloud.
What would the name of a developing tornado be before it reaches the ground?
Before it reaches the ground a developing tornado is known as a funnel cloud.
What are two ways the ground water reaches Earth's surface?
Ground water is on or in the ground, it does not reach it.
What is sliding fricion?
If you mean sliding friction, it's the friction generated by two objects sliding past one another. (Like when you rub your hands together when they get cold--the friction generates heat.) Sliding friction is also the main force which slows down a ball rolling on the ground; the two objects sliding past each other are the ground and the ball, and that creates friction.
Some precipitation never reaches the earth because?
it evapourates again before it reaches the ground
How are tornadoes formed for third graders?
Tornadoes form from powerful, spinning thunderstorms called supercells. Sometimes some of the spinning air can start to squeeze tighter, which causes it to spin faster and stretch toward the ground. When it reaches the ground a tornado is born.
How ground water that is used as drinking water reaches home?
No
How do you tell when a thunderstorm is at its Mature stage?
When precipitation reaches the ground.
