No, wind resistance is an example of a non-contact force, as it acts on an object without physical contact. Contact forces, on the other hand, require direct contact between objects for the force to be applied.

What is wind restance?

Wind resistance is a specific example of air resistance. Wind resistance would be a resistance to motion cause by a wind, for example when you try walking forward on a very windy day it is hard, that force preventing you from walking is wind resistance.


Is wind a non-contact force?

Yes, wind is a non-contact force because it does not require physical contact to exert a force on an object. Wind can push or pull objects without direct contact, making it an example of a non-contact force.


Is wind a contact force or a non-contact force?

Wind is a non-contact force. But if someone is blowing on an object it would be a contact force because a person is causing the movement of another object.


Is wind blowing a kite a contact or non contacts force?

Wind blowing a kite is a non-contact force because the wind does not physically come into contact with the kite. The force is exerted from a distance by the movement of air molecules.


Which force on an airplane can also be called a resistance force?

Gravity is the main resistance force on any aircraft. Wind resistance would be second.


When wind pushes against a?

When wind pushes against a surface, it can create a force known as wind resistance or drag. This force increases with the wind speed and the surface area of the object being pushed. The shape and orientation of the object can also affect the amount of wind resistance it experiences.


What is the force exerted by the Tacoma narrows bridge?

the force was torsion. the wind made it bend like silly puddy ************** The force exerted TO the Tacoma narrows bridge was initially the wind resistance. The wind resistance caused the whole bridge to act as a system with forced vibration with damping.


What forces are there on a car?

gravity, friction, driving force and wind resistance..


What force increases when a heavy wind slows a bird down?

Air resistance


What is an example of drag force?

An example of drag force is the resistance experienced by an object moving through a fluid, such as air or water. As the object moves, the drag force acts opposite to its direction of motion, slowing it down. This force is influenced by the object's shape, size, and velocity, along with the properties of the fluid it is moving through.


A 1500 kg car accelerates at 4.4 ms2 on a level stretch of road If there is a wind resistance force of 67 N what must be the frictional force between the tires and the road?

The car is accelerating due to the net force acting on it which is a sum of the frictional force and wind resistance F = Fr - Fw. The net force can be found from Newton's 2nd law F = m x a and hence F = 6600 N. Since the wind acts to slow the car the frictional force must be greater than the wind and so Fr = F + Fw = 6600 + 67 = 6667. Which is alarmingly close to the Devil's number, is your teacher a satanist?


When you pedal really fast on a bike you can feel the wind slowing you down which force causes this?

It's usually referred to as air resistance.
