What else can I help you with?
Is it easier to calculate speed or average speed?
I'm sure that average speed would be easier to calculate than instantaneous speed. To calculate average speed, just take the time that it takes to travel between two points, and divide that into the distance between the points.
Can you calculate the initial speed from speed-time graph?
Yes.
Why can you only calculate a stone's average speed during its fall?
That is just not true! If you can calculate its average speed you should be able to calculate its speed at any point in time during its flight, including its final velocity.
What formula is used to calculate motion?
You can use a graph to calculate speed.
How do you calculate exact speed?
You can calculate a speed by dividing a distance by the time it takes to cover that distance. If you want the instantaneous speed (for situations of variable speed), you need to calculate the distance and time for a fairly short time interval (ideally, the limit, when the time approaches zero).
What is the difference between terminal speed and terminal velocity?
The difference between terminal speed and terminal velocity is really simple. Terminal speed can be used to refer to the maximum speed an object can reach before factors like friction prevent anymore speed to be gained. Terminal velocity, however, generally refers to the rate at which this speed was gained.
If a train passes the main terminal going west at 10 meters per second when was it at the east terminal?
To determine when the train was at the east terminal, we need to know the distance between the east terminal and the main terminal. Assuming the train is traveling at a constant speed of 10 meters per second, you would calculate the time it takes to reach the east terminal by dividing the distance by the speed. Without the specific distance, we cannot provide an exact time for when it was at the east terminal.
What is the speed of an object that has reached terminal velocity?
The speed at terminal velocity depends on the mass and shape of the object. For example, a sheet of paper will have a very low terminal velocity; the terminal velocity for a man will be much higher.
When gravitational forces and air resistance equalize on an object that is falling toward earth and the object stops accelerating its velocity is called?
In that case, the object is said to have achieved terminal speed.
A falling object that has reached its terminal speed continues to gain what?
A falling object that has reached its terminal speed no longer accelerates due to air resistance balancing the gravitational force. At terminal speed, the object continues to fall with a constant velocity and no longer gains speed.
The speed an object reaches when the force of gravity is balanced by the force of air resistance?
Terminal velocity is the speed an object reaches when the force of gravity is balanced by the force of air resistance. At terminal velocity, the object no longer accelerates and falls at a constant speed. This speed varies depending on the mass, size, and shape of the object.
Does air density determine terminal speed?
Yes, air density can affect terminal speed. In denser air, there is more resistance, which can slow down an object more quickly, leading to a lower terminal speed. Conversely, in less dense air, there is less resistance, allowing an object to reach a higher terminal speed.
What is the speed an on object reaches when the force of gravity is balanced by air resistance called?
terminal velocity
What is it called When an objects speed is not changing?
Terminal velocity if it has reached its top speed. Or obviously constant speed.
What sport uses terminal speed?
drag racing
What is terminal speed in space?
The speed of light in vacuum, approx 300,000 km per second.
You can calculate the average speed of an object by?
the speed
