Why do areas with low altitude have warmer air than areas with high altitude

Physics
1 answer:
barxatty [35]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

Explanation:

Hope that helped

Similarities and differences between<br> distance Time graph and velocity time<br> graph?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Similarity: >>Time is independent variable and such is on the x-axis. ... >>Distance time graph tells you how much distance you have travelled, while velocity time graph tells you your acceleration.  The difference between them is that the velocity-time graph reveals the speed of an object (and whether it is slowing down or speeding up), while the position-time graph describes the motion of an object over a period of time.

Why would a soccer ball keep going forever without physics? Pls help and explain why
Pani-rosa [81]
A soccer ball would keep moving forever without physics, because without force to act upon the soccer ball, it could, or will not be able to stop the acceleration. And force is a factor in physics.

How does the intensity of a sound wave change if the distance from the
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The new intensity decreases by a factor of 16.

Explanation:

The intensity of sound wave is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{A}

P is power

A is area

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

or

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}, r is distance from the source

If the distance from the  source is increased by a factor of 4, r' = 4r

So,

I'=\dfrac{1}{r'^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{1}{(4r)^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{1}{16}\times \dfrac{1}{r^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{I}{16}

So, the new intensity decreases by a factor of 16.
