<span>Near Earth's surface, the distance between the object that is falling and the center of Earth does not change very much. Thus, the force given by the law of universal gravitation depends only on the mass of the object that is falling.</span>

Which statement accurately describes why air pressure decreases as altitude increases? As you increase altitude the temperature
labwork [276]

Answer:

The correct answer is " As you increase altitude, Earth's gravity is not acting as greatly as when closer to Earth's surface so the weight of air molecules decrease, which also in turn decreases air pressure."

Explanation:

As altitude increases air becomes rarefied. At higher altitudes there is less Earth's gravity acting on the air molecules than at areas close the earth surface. Air pressure is the weight of air acting per unit surface area. At higher altitudes as the weight of air decreases due to reduced gravitational pull the air pressure also decreases.

The process n01 → p11 + β−10 n 0 1 → p 1 1 + β - 1 0 represents a(n) _____.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>beta decay</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>process</em> is represented by the nuclear equation:

  • ^1_0n → ^1_1p+^0_{-1}\beta

Where:

  • n represents a neutron,
  • p represents a proton, and
  • β represents an electron.

The superscripts to the leff of each symbol is the mass number (number of protons and neutrons), and the subscript to the left means the atomic number (number of protons).

Then, in this process a neutron is being transformed into a proton by the emssion of an electron (from inside the nucleus of the atom).

This electron is named beta (β) particle, and the process is called <u><em>beta decay</em></u>, because the neutron is changing into other subatomic particles.
