Do swim costumes reduce resistance and drag in the water?

resistance created by a fluid to forward motion. The resistance met by a swimmer in their forward progress caused by the water is passive drag;


How do you reduce drag?

To reduce drag, you can: Streamline the shape of the object to minimize resistance. Smoothen the surface to reduce friction. Eliminate unnecessary protrusions or features that contribute to drag.

What are the ways to reduce drag?

To reduce drag, you can streamline the shape of the object, minimize surface roughness, and reduce the frontal area exposed to the flow of air or water. Additionally, reducing speed can also help decrease drag forces.


Why does Airbus use winglets?

to reduce drag


A swimmer moves through the water at an average speed of 0.22 meter per second.The average drag force is 110 N.What average power is required of the swimmer?

Since the speed is constant (acceleration is zero), we know the horizontal forces are balanced.The swimmer's forward force cancels the 110N drag force.Work done by the swimmer is (110N x .22meter) = 24.2 N-m per second= 24.2 Joules per second= 24.2 watts


What features will your car have to reduce the forces of friction and drag?

A car will have aerodynamic features to reduce forces of friction and drag. A sleek body style will help do this.


What forces act upon swimmers?

Swimmers experience forces such as drag, buoyancy, and propulsion. Drag is the resistance of water against the swimmer's movement, while buoyancy helps to keep the swimmer afloat. Propulsion is the force generated by the swimmer's movements to propel themselves through the water.


How are airplanes designed to reduce drag?

Airplanes are designed to reduce drag by incorporating streamlined shapes and smooth surfaces to minimize air resistance. Winglets at the end of wings help reduce the formation of vortexes that create drag. Advanced materials and coatings are also used to reduce skin friction drag on the aircraft's surface.


How do you control the drag from increasing on aircraft?

using controller to control it.. decrease weight to reduce drag


Making an object a special shape to reduce drag?

to reduce drag you must make your shape more streamlined and more aerodynamic this meaning reducing drag so that there is less resistance therefore creating speed
