Nitrogen oxides play a critical role in photochemical smog. They give the smog its yellowish-brown hue. Indoor residential appliances like gas stoves and gas or wood heaters can be significant emitters of nitrogen oxides in poorly ventilated environments.

  • Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), and chemical compounds with the -CHO group are the main harmful elements of photochemical smog (aldehydes). If present in high enough amounts, PAN and aldehydes can harm plants and irritate the eyes.
  • The greatest sources of emissions are power plants, heavy construction equipment driven by diesel, other moveable engines, and industrial boilers. Cars, trucks, and buses are next in line.

Therefore , on conclusion i.e. two gases with molecules consisting of nitrogen and oxygen atoms are nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These nitrogen oxides play a part in the development of smog and acid rain, adding to the issue of air pollution.

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives  the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }

F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

F'=4*F

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet. The planet has the same mass as Earth but has a
AVprozaik [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}</h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x 10^{24} Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = \frac{GM}{r^{2} }

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g =  \frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24})  }{5733^{2} }

g = 12.12 m/s^{2}

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}

There are four springs stretched by the same mass.
brilliants [131]

Spring C stretches 100 cm.

Explanation:

The spring constant is simply the stiffness of the spring. The higher the spring constant the more stiff the spring is.

Spring constant shows the force needed to stretch a spring from it's equilibrium position. If a material requires more force to cause it to stretch, it will have a high spring constant.

          According to hooke's law "the force needed to extended an elastic material is directly proportional to its extension"

          F = ke

   k is the spring constant

   e is the extension

We see that the spring that stretches by 100 is the less stiff compared to other springs. It has the smallest spring constant.

You wind a small paper tube uniformly with 153 turns of thin wire to form a solenoid. The tube\'s diameter is 5.11 mm and its le
lina2011 [118]

The concept required to solve this problem is linked to inductance. This can be defined as the product between the permeability in free space by the number of turns squared by the area over the length. Recall that Inductance is defined as the opposition of a conductive element to changes in the current flowing through it. Mathematically it can be described as

L = \frac{\mu N^2 A}{l}

Here,

\mu = Permeability at free space

N = Number of loops

A = Cross-sectional Area

l = Length

Replacing with our values we have,

L = \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})(153)^2(\pi (\frac{5.11*10^{-3}}{2})^2)}{2.47*10^{-2}}

L = 0.00002442H

L = 24.42\mu H

Therefore the Inductance is 24.42\mu H
