B.
Warm air is more dense and sits on top of Earth's surface.

C.
Warm air is less dense and sits on Earth's surface HELP PLZ!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I am pretty sure it is A!

:D

Answer 2

The air is warmer near Earth's surface because warm air is denser and sits on top of the Earth's surface. The correct option is B.

What is air density?

The mass of the air per unit volume is known as the air density. Its unit is kg/m³.

Due to the lower pressures in the air above, air expands when it rises. cooling air expands.

The hottest temperatures in the troposphere are often found at the earth's surface because the sun heats the atmosphere predominantly from the surface and because the air cools as it ascends.

Because warm air is denser and lies on top of the surface of the Earth, it is warmer near the surface of the earth.

Hence, the correct option is B.

A jet aircraft is traveling at 262 m/s in hor-

izontal flight. The engine takes in air at a

rate of 85.9 kg/s and burns fuel at a rate of

3.92 kg/s. The exhaust gases are ejected at

921 m/s relative to the aircraft.

Find the thrust of the jet engine.

Answers

Solution :

Speed of the air craft, [tex]$S_a$[/tex] = 262 m/s

Fuel burns at the rate of, [tex]$S_b$[/tex] = 3.92 kg/s

Rate at which the engine takes in air, [tex]$S_{air}$[/tex] = 85.9 kg/s

Speed of the exhaust gas that are ejected relative to the aircraft, [tex]$S_{exh}$[/tex] =921 m/s

Therefore, the upward thrust of the jet engine is given by

[tex]$F=S_{air}(S_{exh}-S_a)+(S_b \times S_{exh})$[/tex]

F = 85.9(921 - 262) + (3.92 x 921)

   = 4862635.79 + 3610.32

   = [tex]$4.8 \times 10^6 \ N$[/tex]

Therefore thrust of the jet engine is [tex]$4.8 \times 10^6 \ N$[/tex].

A mover uses a pulley to lift a 2500N piano up to a second story balcony. The mover pauses to wipe sweat from his forehead while holding the rope tight in one hand. Since the piano is not moving at this time, what is the tension force in the rope while the piano is dangling still in the air?

Answers

Answer:

2500 N

Explanation:

Tension force may be defined as the force which is transmitted along a cable, rope, or through a string which is stretchable and is puled tight by the forces acting from the opposite sides. It is directed along the length of the string or the rope.

In the context, a pulley string holds a 2500 N piano that is used to lift it to second story balcony. When the piano is held stationary by the mover, the tension force acting on the rope is the weight force or the gravitational force that acts on the piano which is 2500 N. The tension force balances the the weight force of the piano when it is not moving.

______ cm


Where does the fish appear to be when it is 38.9 cm from the front surface of the bowl? (Give your answer in cm.)


______ cm

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given:

We can properly determine the distance where the fish appear in the air viewing it from in front of the bowl by using the formula:

[tex]\dfrac{n_i}{d_o}+\dfrac{n_2}{d_1}= \dfrac{n_2-n_1}{r}[/tex]

where;

[tex]n_1[/tex] = refractive index in the air;  = 1.33  &

[tex]n_2[/tex] = refractive index in water. = 1

[tex]\dfrac{n_2}{d_i}= \dfrac{n_2-n_1}{r}-\dfrac{n_1}{d_o}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{d_i}= \dfrac{1-1.33}{-21 \ cm}-\dfrac{1.33}{4.7\ cm}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{d_i}= - 0.26726 \ cm[/tex]

[tex]d_i =\dfrac{1}{ - 0.26726 \ cm}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d_i }[/tex] = - 3.74 cm

30 POINTS!!!! If you increase the frequency, what happens to the velocity of the wave?

In answering this question, describe how you determined the velocity as well as the result you arrived at. Then, provide a scientific explanation for this result, based on your knowledge of waves.

Answers

Answer:

As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. This basically means that when the wavelength is increased, the frequency decreases and vice versa.

Explanation:

A wave's velocity is independent of its intensity and equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) so, velocity remains constant if you increase the frequency.

What is Frequency?

Frequency is defined as the no of waves that are passing from the point in respect to a given time. Frequency can be measured in Hertz. Humans, whose capacity to hear is normal, can hear between the frequency of 20 Hertz to 20000 Hertz.

In mathematical form, the frequency is the factor of one divided by the time period. The number of cycles or vibrations a body in periodic motion makes in one unit of time.

Wavelength reduces as frequency rises. The relationship between frequency and wavelength is inverse. In essence, this means that the frequency reduces as the wavelength increases and vice versa.

Frequency ∝ 1 / Wavelength

Velocity = Frequency  ×  Wavelength

Thus, it remains constant.

Answers

Answer:

Rachels car moves and ashleys stops

Explanation:

When Ashley's moving car collides with Rachel's bumper car which is at rest then some of the momentum of Ashley's car is transferred to Rachel's car causing it to move.

What is the conservation of momentum?

Conservation of momentum states that the momentum of a system is constant if there is the absence of external forces on the system. The momentum of an object can be conserved and is a vector quantity.

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication of the mass of a particle and its velocity. The law of conservation of momentum is confirmed by experiment and can be deduced mathematically on the presumption that space is uniform.

Conservation of linear momentum is derived from Newton’s second law of motion states that the total momentum remains the same in an isolated system.

276 m/s relative to the aircraft.

Find the thrust of the jet engine.

Answer in units of N.

Answers

Answer:

The thrust is  [tex]F = 7828.3 \  N [/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the jet aircraft is  [tex]v = 214 \ m/s[/tex]

    The rate at which the engine takes in air is [tex]\^ Q = 115 \ kg/s[/tex]

    The rate  at which the engine burns fuel is  [tex]\r m = 2.53 \ kg/s[/tex]

    The speed of the exhaust gases is  [tex]u = 276 \ m/s[/tex]

   

Generally the thrust of the engine is mathematically represented as

      [tex]F =[ \^ Q * ( u - v )] + (\r m * u)[/tex]

Newton explained that all objects attract each other, as the Earth is much greater than the apple, it is this that falls towards the Earth.

The moon also falls towards the Earth, but having a tangential speed, the acceleration it has is used in the change of direction of its speed, in general this acceleration is called centripetal

You want to push a 71-kg box up a 16° ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ramp and the box is 0.23. With what magnitude force parallel to the ramp should you push on the box so that it moves up the ramp at a constant speed?

Answers

Answer:

345.60N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the force parallel to the ramp that will push the box up the ramp are the frictional force(Ff) and the moving force Fm

Total force = Ff + Fm

Ff = ηR

Ff = ηmgcosθ

Fm = Wsinθ

Fm = mgsinθ

Total force = ηmgcosθ + mgsinθ

Total force = mg(ηcosθ + sinθ)

Given

mass m = 71kg

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m/s²

angle of inclination θ = 16°

coefficient of friction η = 0.23

Substitute into the formula;

Total force = 71(9.8)(0.23cos16 + sin16)

Total force = 695.8(0.2211+0.2756)

Total force = 695.8(0.4967)

Total force = 345.60N

Hence the magnitude force parallel to the ramp that you should push on the box so that it moves up the ramp at a constant speed is 345.60N
