What measurement can be used to determine the stability of the atmosphere?

1 answer:

5 0

I would say pressure, but it might depend on what you mean by stability. Pressure will tell you how many particles and how energized those particles are, the more particles the higher the pressure, the harder it is to change or remove the atmosphere due to the larger mass of it. Also consistent pressure measurements can tell you how stable the atmosphere in a particular region is. So if stability means how consistent are the weather conditions, pressure can be a good indicator too, differences and changing pressures can cause weather catastrophes like tornados and hurricanes.

A proton with a speed of 3.2 x 106 m/s is shot into a region between two plates that are separated by a distance of 0.23 m. As t

harina [27]

Answer:

<h2>The magnitude of the magnetic is 0.145 T</h2>

Explanation:

Given :

Speed of proton $v = 3.2 \times 10^{6}\frac{m}{s}$

Mass of proton $m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27}$ Kg

The force on the proton in magnetic field is given by,

$F = q (v \times B)$

$F = qvB \sin \theta$

But $\sin 90 = 1$ (∵ Force is perpendicular to the velocity so $\theta = 90$ )

$F = qvB$

When particle enter in magnetic field at the angle of 90° so particle moves in circle

So force is given by,

$F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}$

Where $r =$ radius but in our case 0.23 m, $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}$ C

By comparing above two equation,

$B = \frac{mv}{qr}$

$B = \frac{1.67 \times 10^{-27} \times 3.2 \times 10^{6} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.23 }$

$B = 0.145$ T

The three different states of matter are liquid, solid, and gas. A solid is something you can hold in your fingers, while a liqu

The answer is C. that liquids and gases both take the shape of their container.

Think of it this way, if you take an ice cube and put it in your glass, it will stay in its shape and stay that way until it melts. But if you put liquid or a gas into a glass, it will take the shape of the glass that it is put into.

Out of that list, the concave mirror is the only item that can concentrate sunlight and heat into a small area. But if you could get ahold of a convex lens, that would be even better.

The sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²

The given parameters;

initial velocity of the sprinter, u = 18 km/h

final velocity of the sprinter, v = 27 km/h

time of motion of the sprinter, t = 3.5 x 10⁻⁴ h

Convert the velocity of the sprinter to m/s;

$initial \ velocity, u = 18 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 5 \ m/s\\\\final \ velocity, v =27 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 7.5 \ m/s\\\\$

The time of motion is seconds;

$t = 3.5 \times 10^{-4} \ h \times \frac{3600 \ s}{1 \ h} = 1.26 \ s$

The sprinter’s average acceleration is calculated as follows;

$a = \frac{v- u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{7.5 \ m/s \ - \ 5 \ m/s}{1.26 \ s} \\\\a = 1.98 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²
