What 3 factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?
Speed, shape and frontal cross-section. Viscosity, texture, friction, gravity, velocity, size, and shape can all affect air resistance.
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 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.
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.
Who discovered air resistance?
Sir Isaac Newton mentions air resistance in Law Ipublished in his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
What is the most aerodynamic shape possible for an object to minimize air resistance?
The most aerodynamic shape to minimize air resistance is a teardrop shape.
What is the shape of a car which reduces air resistance?
The streamlining shape.
What is the shape that reduces air resistance?
A streamlined shape, such as a teardrop or an airfoil, is designed to reduce air resistance by minimizing drag. This shape allows air to flow smoothly around the object, reducing turbulence and friction with the air.
What affects air resistance?
Fluid density, relative velocity, and object shape affect air resistance.
How does changing the shape of an object affect the friction and air resistance?
Changing the shape of an object can affect friction and air resistance. For friction, the surface area in contact with another surface can increase or decrease, altering the friction force. For air resistance, a more streamlined shape will experience less resistance compared to a less streamlined shape due to differences in how air flows around the object.
What features of an object will affect air resistance?
The shape of the object, its surface area, and its speed through the air will affect air resistance. Objects with a more streamlined shape and smaller surface area will experience less air resistance than those with bulkier shapes and larger surface areas. Additionally, objects moving at higher speeds will experience greater air resistance.
What three factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on a object?
The factors that affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object are the speed of the object, the surface area exposed to the air, and the shape of the object. A faster object experiences more air resistance than a slower one, a larger surface area increases air resistance, and a streamlined shape reduces air resistance.
What are the factors that effect air resistance?
The factors that affect air resistance include the speed of the object (higher speed leads to greater air resistance), the surface area of the object (larger surface area experiences more air resistance), the shape of the object (streamlined shapes experience less air resistance), and the air density (higher air density increases resistance).
Does air resistance depend on weight?
No, only on the shape.
The sleek shape of a bobsled reduced what?
air resistance
What does streamlinne mean?
There is no such English words as "streamlinne". However "streamline" means to shape in such a way that the product offers the least resistance to a current, as of air or water.
Air resistance depends on what?
The amount of air resistance an object has depends on it's shape and it's frontal cross-section.
