The higher in the atmosphere, the less oxygen, and the more cold temperatures.

The material/moisture on the plane would freeze and damage the engine.

Plane engines need oxygen to burn fuel, they have to get their oxygen from the outside air. If they fly too high, the oxygen concentration in the air will drop too low for the engine to maintain combustion and will cause it to stall.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The answer is false

Explanation:

Though the mostly used SI unit of measurement or the most popular units are the

Length,

Time and

Mass

i.e meter (m), seconds (s), kilogram (kg)

Aside all the above stated units for measurements there are other four basic units which are itemized  bellow.

they are

1. Amount of substance - mole (mole)

2. Electric current - ampere (A)

3. Temperature - kelvin (K)

4. Luminous intensity - candela (cd)

Velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. ... Net force is also a vector quantity which has both mag
GuDViN [60]
When the object is moving in the elliptical orbit, it means that the direction of its acceleration should be towards the two foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse to keep the elliptical motion. As force according to the Newton's second law: F = ma, the net force must be in the direction of the acceleration. As far as the magnitude of net force is concerned, you can use Newton's gravitational law to find its magnitude.

An AM radio transmitter broadcasts 63.2 kW of power uniformly in all directions. (a) Assuming all of the radio waves that strike
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is 5.406 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²

Explanation:

Given;

power of radio transmitter, P = 63.2 kW = 63200 W

distance of transmission, r = 30.5 km

Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is calculated as follows;

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

where;

I is the intensity of the transmitted radio wave

Substitute the given values and calculate the intensity of the transmitted radio wave;

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2} = \frac{63200}{4\pi (30500)^2} = 5.406 *10^{-6} \ W/m^2

Therefore, Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is 5.406 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²
