When an object is moving faster through a fluid -how does this affect the force of friction?

In a fluid, the force of friction tends to increase when the speed increases. The exact relationship, however, is far from simple.

Does air friction affect airplanes?
Any and every object that's moving through air at speed is affected by air friction.
How air friction affect momentum?
AIr friction will try to slow down any item moving through air, and as the speed is reduced so is the momentum.
How does friction affect a way objects move?
Friction will slow down the moving object
What is a friction that acts on objects moving through a fluid called?
Its called Fluid Friction
How does friction affect interia?
Friction does not affect inertia, but it affects momentum. Momentum is the product of the mass of an object and its speed. Friction forces, if present, will always act to decrease the momentum of a moving object.
Does air friction affect airplanes?
Any and every object that's moving through air at speed is affected by air friction.
How friction affect the moving object?
Friction always want to retard the motion of a moving object. So friction slows down and finally stops a moving object.
How air friction affect momentum?
AIr friction will try to slow down any item moving through air, and as the speed is reduced so is the momentum.
Give an example of fluid friction?
A plane moving through air. Air is causing friction, A boat moving through water .Water causes friction.
How does the friction affect the way objects move?
Friction will slow down the moving object
How does friction affect a way objects move?
Friction will slow down the moving object
Effect of speed on the force of friction?
Friction is independent of speed once an object is moving since faster does not mean more friction.
Why do objects heat up if they are moving faster?
Because the friction of molicules rubbing other molicules.
What is a friction that acts on objects moving through a fluid called?
Its called Fluid Friction
Does fluid friction affect soccer balls?
All friction affects a moving object, the source of the friction and the object moving is irrelevant. Water on a soccer ball would effect the performance of the ball.
How does friction affect interia?
Friction does not affect inertia, but it affects momentum. Momentum is the product of the mass of an object and its speed. Friction forces, if present, will always act to decrease the momentum of a moving object.
Fluid friction acting on an object moving throught the air?
Fluid friction acting on an object moving through the air is called air.
