Do bubbles reach terminal velocity?
It depends on the type of bubbles. Hydrogen bubbles are often used to visualize aerodynamic flows around models. How you would work out their terminal velocity is by balancing their drag force and buoyancy force. First you would need an estimate of the bubble diameter, somewhere around .025 mm. For water, density of fluid =998 kg/m3 and fluid viscosity = 1.12*10-3 Pa*s FB=density of fluid*volume of bubble*gravity FD=3*pi*fluid viscosity*diameter*velocity of water At the terminal velocity FD=FB, you should have all the other variables, just rearrange to solve for the terminal velocity.
Will an object dropped on the moon reach a terminal velocity?
That varies, depending on the object. A massive object may take a long time to reach terminal velocity; a less massive object will reach terminal velocity faster. It basically depends on the object's mass, size, and shape.
Who invented velocity?
the person who discovered velocity was newton. so you should look up newtons theory on velocity.
What depth should a velocity sensor be placed to estimate a stream's average velocity if it's 12.5 meters deep?
At what depth should a velocity sensor be placed to estimate a stream's average velocity if it is 12.5 meters deep?
What is the self cleansing velocity for a drain?
the minimum velocity at which no solid get deposited in the invert of the sewer. while designing the sewer the velocity should maintained such that no solid get diposited in the sewer. in case of separate sewer a min. velocity of .6m/s should be maintained. it should less than .75m/s in case of combined sewer, .9m/s would be acceptable.

What can velocity be compared with?
'Velocity' should be compared with 'speed', and it should be understood that they're different. "30 miles per hour" is a speed. "30 miles per hour toward the south" is a velocity.

How long will it take a skydiver to fall 1000 at terminal velocity?
Terminal velocity, if you are flat toward the ground is about 180 feet per second; so time is distance/speed = 1000 feet/180 = 5.5 seconds. If you roll up like a ball terminal velocity may be as high as 280 feet per second. and time would be about 3.5 seconds.
What happens to the velocity of water droplets when they fall from different heights?
All objects fall to earth at a rate of about 9.8 meters per second per second. (meaning that they increase in speed by 9.8 meters per second every second) So the velocity should not change unless a droplet is low enough to not be able to reach terminal velocity. (the speed where air resistance equals out the force of gravity, stopping something from increasing its speed past a certain point)
How do you figure out velocity?
Velocity is displacement divided by time. Displacement is different from distance traveled, as displacement states how far you traveled in RELATION to a starting point. The formula for Velocity is ---- v = x / t v = Velocity x = Displacement t = Time velocity is a vector quantity so the direction should also be specified unless it is implicit in the problem. ----
What should be velocity of the compressive strength machine to break the specimens?
The velocity of the machine should be between 0.2-1 Mpa/sec and until the end of the experiment the velocity should increase at a value of 10%

During electroplating the item to be plated?
The item to be plated should be attached to the negative terminal of the battery.
Should we remove the Video Lottery Terminal?
NO
How fast does a bullet fall when shot into the air?
As Galileo Galileo was said to have discovered by dropping objects off the Leaning Tower of Pisa, free-falling objects, like a returning bullet, will all travel similarly faster and faster, under the acceleration of gravity (about 9.8 m/s2). Because of the counter-force due to air resistance, objects will stop accelerating, reaching a terminal velocity dependent on their aerodynamic properties. A bullet should reach a terminal velocity of about 200 mph.
