Acceleration due to gravity = 2.6m/s²

Length of building = d = 88.3m

<span>Time he needed before she hits the ground = ?
 we can find the time by using the formula;</span>

D = 1/2at²

Now putting the value;

<span>88.3 = (1/2) a t</span>²<span>

88.3 = 1/2 x 23.6 x t</span>²

t² = 88.3 / 11.8

= 7.48

<span>t = 2.735 seconds

</span>

Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.

A light beam is traveling through an unknown substance. When it exits that substance and enters into air, the angle of reflectio
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

0.79

Explanation:

Using Snell's law, we have that:

n(1) * sin θ1 = n(2) * sinθ2

Where n(1) = refractive index of air = 1.0003

θ1 = angle of incidence

n(2) = refractive index of second substance

θ2 = angle of refraction

The angle of reflection through the unknown substance is the same as the angle of incidence of air. This means that θ1 = 32°

=> 1.0003 * sin32 = n(2) * sin42

n(2) = (1.0003 * sin32) / sin42

n(2) = 0.79
