Acontinuous and aligned fiber-reinforced composite having a cross-sectional area of 1130 mm2 is subjected to an external tensile load. if the stresses sustained by the fiber and matrix phases are 156 mpa and 2.75 mpa, respectively, the force sustained by the fiber phase is 74,000 n and the total longitudinal strain is 1.25 x 10-3, what is the value of the modulus of elasticity of the composite material in the longitudinal direction?

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
