Answer:

Meteoroid , meteor and meteorite

Explanation:

A meteoroid is a small rocky or metallic body travelling through space.  Most are fragments from comets or asteroids

The visible streak of light from space debris is the result of heat as it enters a planet's atmosphere, and the trail of glowing particles that it sheds in its wake is called a meteor, or colloquially a "shooting star" or "falling star". A series of many meteors appearing seconds or minutes apart, and appearing to originate from the same fixed point in the sky, is called a meteor shower. Incoming objects larger than several meters (asteroids or comets) can explode in the air. If a meteoroid, comet or asteroid or a piece thereof withstands ablation from its atmospheric entry and impacts with the ground, then it is called a meteorite.

An ice skater is spinning at 6.00 rev/s with his moment of inertia being 0.400 kg/m2. Calculate his new moment of inertia if he
labwork [276]

Answer:

New moment of inertia will be I=1.92kgm^2

Explanation:

It is given initially angular velocity \omega =6rev/sec=6\times 2\pi =37.68rad/sec

Moment of inertia I=0.4kgm^2

Angular momentum is equal to L=I\omega =37.68\times 0.4=15.072kgm^2/sec

Now angular velocity is decreases to \omega =1.25rev/sec=1.25\times 2\times 3.14=7.85rad/sec

As we know that angular momentum is conserved

So 15.072=I\times 7.85

I=1.92kgm^2

So new moment of inertia will be I=1.92kgm^2

A 50.0 kg woman climbs a flight of stairs 6.00 m high in 15.0 s. How much power does she use.
WITCHER [35]

Her weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

Work = (weight) · (height) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²) · (6 m)

Power = (work) / (time) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²) · (6 m) / (15 s)

Power = (50 · 9.8 · 6 / 15) · (kg · m² / s³)

Power = 196 (kg · m / s²) · (m) / s

Power = 196 Newton-meter/second

<em>Power = 196 watts</em>

A person using an oxygen mask is breathing air that is 33% oxygen. what is the partial pressure of the o2, when the air pressure
yawa3891 [41]
The partial pressure of the O2 is 36.3 kiloPascal when the air pressure in the mask is 110 kiloPascal based on the isotherm relation. This problem can be solved by using the isotherm relation equation which stated as Vx/Vtot = px/ptot, where V represents volume, p represents the pressure, x represents the partial gas, and tot represents the total gas<span>. Calculation: 33/100 = px/110 --> px = 36.3</span>
