What is a change in velocity in given period of time?
Change in velocity = Velocity at the end of the period minus velocity at the start of the period.
When average velocity and average speed is equal?
For the instantaneous value of average velocity, average speed and average velocity are equal.
What is initial velocity?
Initial velocity is the original starting velocity. I love math! It makes you smart like a math smart person.
What are units for velocity squared?
The SI unit for velocity is m/s. Therefore the SI units for velocity squared would be m2/s2.
What is the formula for speed or velocity?
velocity=distance/time -or- v=d/t
What is the terminal velocity of skydivers?
187 miles per hour.
What is the velocity of a cargo helicopter?
Different models of helicopter have different performance stats. Impossible to answer without knowing which one you had in mind.
A skydiver slows down from 65 ms by opening the parachute if this takes 0.75 seconds what is the skydivers acceration?
To calculate this, you divide the change in velocity, by the time.
What is the velocity of a helicopter traveling 6 feet per second?
Its speed is 6 feet per second. Its velocity is 6 feet per second in whatever direction it's going.
What is the terminal velocity of a helicopter?
Terminal velocity is generally associated with a falling object, not a powered one. Therefore I must assume that the helicopter has experienced Engine/rotor failure. Rotor failure is important because even unpowered, the rotor can be used (auto-gyro) to safely land.Let's supposed the rotors have been blown off. The falling body of the helicopter will reach a 'Terminal Velocity' of between 100 and 140 mph, depending on its Drag value. Its drag value will depend on its shape and size.
A skydiver steps from a helicopter and falls for 5 seconds before reaching her terminal velocity during this 5 second interval her acceleration?
the crate will reach terminal velocity last, but hit the ground frist.
When air resistance equals pull of gravity?
When air resistance equals the pull of gravity, terminal velocity is reached. This is experienced by all falling objects if given enough time, and this is classically explained in Physics using skydivers.
A skydiver steps from a helicopter and falls for 5 seconds before reaching her terminal velocity During this 5 second interval her acceleration will?
increase- your speed will increase until terminal velocity is reached. From there it will stay constant.
How fast do skydivers fall through the the air?
A skydiver, falling without an open parachute, will reach a terminal velocity of approx 200 km per hour (55 metres/second).
A skydiver with a mass of 60 kg jumps from a helicopter hovering at initial altitude of 5 km?
the person may die
If a helicopter descends at a rate of 8 feet per second what is the speed and velocity?
When you talk about speed, the direction is irrelevant (scalar quantity); when you talk about velocity, the direction is of interest (vector quantity). Therefore, the speed is 8 ft/sec., and the velocity is 8 ft/second in a downward direction.
What is a skydivers velocity after 2 seconds?
Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s/s, which is the same as 9.8m/s2. An acceleration of 9.8m/s/s means that with each passing second, the velocity of the skydiver increases by 9.8m/s. Therefore, after two seconds. a skydiver's velocity would be 19.6m/s. The acceleration will continue at 9.8m/s/s until the skydiver reaches terminal velocity, at which point the weight of the skydiver and the air resistance will be balanced, so the net force acting on the skydiver will be zero, at which point there will be no further acceleration.
