Motion With Non-Uniform Acceleration Flashcards
1
Q
Terminal Velocity
A
Maximum velocity a falling body can travel at because resistive force(s) equals the weight of the object
2
Q
Viscosity
A
A measure of a fluid’s resistance to flowing
3
Q
Drag
A
A frictional force opposing motion due to an object moving through a fluid, proportional to the square of the object’s speed; and proportional to the surface area of the object in the plane perpendicular to the direction of motion
4
Q
Fluid
A
A fluid is a substance that can flow, including liquids and gases
5
Q
Uniform Gravitational Field
A
A region of space in which objects experience the same gravitational field strength
