who can tell me air resistance formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Resistance (Ohms) = Voltage (v) / Current (I)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh cool now i have to translate it to lithuanian Aiko xDD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its for electric resistance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for air resistance F(air) = -cv^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does answear is 800 Newtons?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c is constant which depends upon the shape of the body

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm okay, can you plz try to slove this task: 80 kg cylinder is set evenly. Calculate the applied force of air resistance?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think answear is 800 Newtons but idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where is that question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

80 kg cylinder is set evenly. Calculate the applied force of air resistance?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

check this out http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=88866 maybe it will be helpful

OpenStudy (anonymous):

80 kg weight of the balloon set evenly. Calculate the applied force of air resistance.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, thank you but can you try slove that task?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

80 kg weight of the balloon set evenly. Calculate the applied force of air resistance.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the balloon moving?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its velocity?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, we need to find out air resistance force

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the formula includes velocity squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm, but there's nothing said about velocity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you state the question as it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Calculate the applied force of air resistance.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

weight = mass * gravitational speed; wight =80kg*10m/\[s{2}\]= 800 Newtons

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe something like this? sorry i dont know how to write formula cuz i'm from lithuania and it's difference words in english

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The air resistance = weight of balloon because it is not accelerating.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually you did not state the question fully, you should have mentioned that the balloon is falling with terminal velocity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you mean that this task answear is 80 Newtons? or what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

equal to its weight 800N

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I had to guess that "set evenly" means constant velocity.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answear 800N? :I

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really? cool then i sloved it correct! thank you ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are welcome
