Why is atmospheric pressure greater at low elevations and less at higher elevations?
ss7ja [257]
Earth's gravity pulls air as close to the surface as possible. As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level.

An object of mass, m1 with a velocity, v1 collides with another object at rest (v2 = 0) with a mass, m2. After the collision, m1
goblinko [34]

Answer:

v"_{1} = v_{1} tanΘ

v^{"} _{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

Θ = tan^{-1}(\frac{v^{"} _{1} }{v_{1} } )

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of momentum, we have:

Δp_{x = 0}

p_{x} = p"_{x}

m_{1}v_{1} = m_{2}v"_{2} cosΘ (Equation 1)

Δp_{y} = 0

p_{y} = p"_{y}

0 = m_{1} v"_{1} - m_{2} v"_{2} sinΘ (Equation 2)

From Equation 1:

v"_{2} = \frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cos}Θ

From Equation 2:

m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ = m_{1} v_{1}

v"_{1} = \frac{m_{2} v"_{2}sinΘ}{m_{1} }

Replacing Equation 3 in Equation 4:

v"_{1}=\frac{m_{2}\frac{m_{1}v_{1}}{m_{2}cosΘ}sinΘ}{m_{1}}

v"_{1}=v_{1}\frac{sinΘ}{cosΘ}

v"_{1}=v_{1}tanΘ (Equation 5)

And we found Θ from the Equation 5:

tanΘ=\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}}

Θ=tan^{-1}(\frac{v"_{1}}{v_{1}})

<span>Visible satellite images are like photos which are dependent on visible light from the sun so they work best during the day. The sensor works by detecting radiation within the range that wavelength is visible. Because of this, the rays is usually seen as reaching earth from the East. </span>

FIND MEFIND V AT THE FIRST HILLFIND HEIGHT OF THE SECOND HILLFIND V AT POINT A
vitfil [10]

1)

At the starting point, the spring releases potential energy which is converted to kinetic energy of the truck. The formula fr calculating the elastic potential energy of the spring is expressed as

PE = 1/2kx^2

where

x is the extension of the spring

k is the spring constant

From the information given,

k = 8500

x = 7

Thus,

PE = 1/2 x 8500 x 7^2 = 208250 J

Since elastic potential energy of spring = kinetic energy of the truck, it means that

Kinetic energy = 208250

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is expressed as

KE = 1/2mv^2

where

m = mass of truck

v = velocity of truck

From the diagram,

m = 600

Thus,

208250 = 1/2 x 600 x v^2

208250 = 300v^2

v^2 = 208250/300 = 694.17

v = square root of 694.17

v = 26.35 m/s

The velocity at which the truck is moving is 26.35 m/s

The potential energy of the truck at that point is calculated by apply the formula,

Potential energy = mgh

where

g = acceleration due to gravity and its value is 9.81 m/s

h is the height of the truck and it is 20

m is the mass of the truck and it is 600

Thus,

Potential energy = 600 x 9.81 x 20 = 117720

Mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy

Mechanical energy = 208250 + 117720 = 325970 J
