Here we discuss the science behind air resistance, a force that opposes motion. We look at examples of air resistance and how it affects day-to-day life.
Air resistance is the frictional force that opposes an object’s motion through the air (the drag force in the air). When Fares is cycling and skateboarding, he is moving through the air. When Fares is diving underwater, he is moving through water.
Children look at friction, how the force of air resistance affects moving objects, pushing and pulling and directions in which forces act. Each activity includes worksheets and teacher guidance.
The friction that occurs between an object and a fluid or a gas, for example, a shark swimming through the ocean water. Watch the video below to help you further understand these types of friction.
24 Μαρ 2021 · Some examples of friction acting in sport are: A sprinter accelerating on a track. The foot applies a force downwards and backward into the track. The friction forces of the track resist this causing forward movement (otherwise the sprinter would slip).
19 Ιαν 2020 · demonstrate why streamlined bodies reduce air resistance to travel faster; provide a visual explanation of the relationship between acceleration due to gravity, sir resistance, steady speed and why parachutes work.
What Is Friction? Practice identifying types of friction with this worksheet. Students define three types of friction – sliding friction, air resistance, and rolling friction – and list examples of each in this printable for physical science.
