The layers of the atmosphere is based off temperature.

Hope this helped! ^-^

There are many porperties. You can use Altitude, Temperature, Pressure and Density, but the best one is temperature. The resaon for that is that based on the temperature changes then the athmosphere can be broken into four major layers. Remember that the layers are the following: <span>the </span>troposphere,the<span> </span>stratosphere, <span>the </span>mesosphere<span>, and the</span>thermosphere<span>.</span>

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.
noname [10]

Question:

The water molecules now in your body were once part of a molecular cloud. Only about onemillionth of the mass of a molecular cloud is in the form of water molecules, and the mass density of such a cloud is roughly 2.0×10−21 g/cm^3.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.

Answer:

The volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body is 1.4×10²⁵ cm³

Explanation:

Here, we have mass density of cloud  =  2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3

Density = Mass/Volume

Volume = Mass/Density =   If the mass is 40 kg and the body is made up of 70% by mass of water, we have

28 kg water = 28000 g

Therefore the Volume = 28 kg/ 2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3 = 1.4×10¹⁹ m³ = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

Therefore, the volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

in a lever, a load of 600N is lifted by using 400 effort. If the load is at the distance of 20cm and the effort at the distance
koban [17]

Explanation:

Load (l) = 680N

Effort (E) = 500N

Length slope (l) = 12m

Height slope (h) = 8 m

Output = load * height

680 *8 = 5.44 *103 J

The Input = effort * length = 500 *12 = 6000J

the Mechanical advantage (M.A) = load effort= 600500=1.36

the Velocity ratio (V.R) =lh=128 = 1.5

the Efficiency =M.A100%V.R= 90.6%

When a positive charge moves in the direction of the electric field, what happens to the electrical potential energy associated
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

B it decreases

Explanation:

the movement of a positive test charge in the direction of an electric field would be like a mass falling downward within Earth's gravitational field. Both movements would be like going with nature and would occur without the need of work by an external force. This motion would result in the loss of potential energy

Q 19.23: A proton is initially moving at 3.0 x 105 m/s. It moves 3.5 m in the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the proton at the end of the motion is 1.425 x 10⁻¹⁶ J.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of proton, v_p_i = 3 x 10⁵ m/s

distance moved by the proton, d = 3.5 m

electric field strength, E = 120 N/C

The kinetic energy of the proton at the end of the motion is calculated as follows.

Consider work-energy theorem;

W = ΔK.E

W =K.E_f - K.E_i

where;

K.Ef is the final kinetic energy

W is work done in moving the proton = F x d  = (EQ) x d = EQd

K.E_f =EQd + \frac{1}{2}m_pv_p_i^2

m_p \ is \ mass \ of \ proton = 1.673 \ \times \ 10^{-27} kg \\\\Q \ is \ charge \ of \ proton = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

K.E_f = 120\times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 3.5   \ + \ \frac{1}{2}(1.673\times 10^{-27})(3\times 10^5)^2 \\\\

K.E_f = 6.72\times 10^{-17} \ + \ 7.53 \times 10^{-17} \\\\K.E_f = 14.25 \times 10^{-17} J\\\\K.E_f = 1.425\times 10^{-16} \ J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the proton at the end of the motion is 1.425 x 10⁻¹⁶ J.
