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 barefoot field-goal kicker imparts a speed of 54 m/s to a football initially at rest. If the football has a mass of 0.55 kg an
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Force, F = 900 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the football, m = 0.55 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed, v = 54 m/s

Time of contact, t = 0.033 s

We need to find the magnitude of the force exerted by the ball on the kicker’s foot. It is a case of second law of motion. It is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.55\times 54}{0.033 }\\\\F=900\ N

So, the magnitude of the force exerted by the ball on the kicker’s foot is 900 N.

Classify each statement below as an observation or as an inference based on the current Big Bang model. (note that the helium ab
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Observations:

  • Large scale structures look about the same in all directions.
  • The temperatures of the cosmic microwave background varies slightly with direction.
  • The cosmic microwave background temperature is approximately 2.73 Kelvin.
  • The Helium abundance is at least 25% in every galaxy studied so far.

While Inference includes:

  • Photons of the cosmic microwave background is radiation left over from the Big bang.
  • The cosmic microwave background is radiation left over from the Big bang.
  • Fusion during the universe's first five minutes produced 75% hydrogen and 25% helium.
  • Large-scale structure grew around density variations present in the early universe.

Explanation:

Inference here refers to the process of drawing a conclusion based on what is already known while Observation involves the perception and recording of data via the use of scientific instruments and procedures.

The insights below highlights the explanations for some of the insights used in determining its Observation or Inference status.

The Cosmic Microwave Background, which contains the afterglow of light and radiation is left over from the Big bang.

The Cosmic Microwave Background is black body radiation at a temperature of 2.725 Kelvin.

In the year 1965, a pair of radio astronomers named Arno Penzias and Bob Wilson respectively were working at Bell labs, in New Jersey. Using an antenna that is sensitive to the radiation of microwaves, they discovered an unknown source of static noise. After they tried doing everything possible  to reduce the noise, they realized that the microwaves had a black body spectrum, with a characteristic temperature of only T = 2.725 Kelvin ( and maximum wavelength of 1 millimeter). These ever present microwaves seen in every direction are called "Cosmic Microwave Background". This explains the reason behind statement five(5) being an Observation.

Finally, The Cosmos Background Explorer (COBE) which launched a satellite in the year 1989 found that there were slight fluctuations in the radiation spectrum. The temperature varies very slightly from one place to another by a few parts in 100,000 i.e (10^-5). The excerpts above clarify the reason for the answer to statement four(4) being listed as an Observation.
