What force slows things down the most?
Friction and Air Resistance
How are air resistance and friction alike?
Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.
Air and water resistance?
Air resistance is that resistance when substance moves in air and it expresses a opposite force on it. However, water restinace is water when a substance moves thorugh water and it expresses and oppoisite force.
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.
Is air resistance a contact or non contact force?
Air resistance is a contact force because you are in contact with the air in order to apply that force.
An air resistance can be called intertia?
You can call air resistance anything you like, but it isn't inertia. It's friction.
Does air resistance can be called intertia?
You can call air resistance anything you like, but it isn't inertia. It's friction.
Why big things have a bigger air resistance than small things?
You have a false premise. Not ALL big things have bigger air resistance than small things. Air resistance must also factor in the direction of movement and the surface area against which the air is impacting, i.e., the shape of the objects.
Why do things float or sink?
Air resistance.
How does air resistance affect how fast things fall?
Air resistance is basically friction between the object on the air- it has to push the air out of the way, and slows down.
Where is there less air?
Inside of vacuums, there is no air. In these spaces, you can create an environment, where there is little/no air resistance.
What things use air resistance to slow down?
A parachute
Does the force of friction also act on the objects moving in the air?
Yes. It's called wind resistance, or air resistance, or air drag. Items with little drag are said to be streamlined.
3 things that effect the strength of resistance?
light air water
What force slows things down the most?
Friction and Air Resistance
How does wweight affect how things fly through the air?
If you ignore air resistance, weight has no effect at all.
What part of muscle do air boxing will build?
Very little. There is no resistance to exercise the muscle.
