Air goes through a process called respiration where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is expelled. This process occurs in the lungs where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and circulated throughout the body to provide energy to cells. Carbon dioxide is then released as a waste product.

Can electricity go through air?

Yes, electricity can flow through air, but it is less conductive compared to materials such as metals. The presence of moisture or impurities in the air can also affect the conductivity. In certain conditions, such as during a lightning strike, electricity can easily pass through the air.


Can air go through your skin?

No, air cannot pass through human skin, as the skin acts as a protective barrier to prevent substances from entering the body. The respiratory system is responsible for exchanging gases with the environment.


Can sound waves go through a vacuum?

No, sound waves require a medium like air, water, or solids to travel through. In a vacuum where there is no medium, sound waves cannot propagate.


When an object falls through the air encounters air resistance its overall speed will be than if it had not encountered air resistance?

The resistance do obstruct the object. The object always travel slower with air resistance. Air resistance is higher with velocity and the object falling through air would have a limited velocity that it can't go through.


Does a soccer ball go faster in the air on a cold or hot day?

On a hot day - the air molecules have more kinetic energy so they move around more freely. They will move out of the way of the soccer ball that is moving through them more easily when the air is warm. In physics we might say that the warmer air is more susceptible to shear force than cooler air. The warmer air will "part" more easily to let the ball pass through. For the same reason, aircraft have to go faster through warm air, as it moves more easily and gives less lift. Planes take off and climb faster in colder, denser air.
