This solid layer of the earth is made of mostly iron and nickel.

Physics
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer

Explanation:

Yes, it's true that the solid layer of the earth is known as the most dense part as it is made up of the heavy metals like iron and nickel. Inner part is the hotter part due to the high pressure and temperature. It has the temperature of about 5,200°C and the pressure of 3.6 million atm but still the iron and nickel are present there in the solid form as they withstand such high temperature and pressure values.

When the diaphragm contracts , air pressure in the chest increases . True or False ?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: False

 

When the diaphragm contracts, the muscles will also contract and pull upward and increase the size of the thoracic cavity thus decreases air pressure inside during inspiration. After the diaphragm contracts, it goes to relaxation, the muscles will also relaxed. It gets looser and return to its original position higher up in the chest. This increase the pressure in the chest, which force the air in the lungs out through the nose.

A body of mass 40kg is accelerating at a
jok3333 [9.3K]
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Mass is constant, so the rate of change of momentum is
                        (mass) x (rate of change of speed) .

But (rate of change of speed ) is just acceleration.

So the rate of change of momentum is (mass) x (acceleration).

But (mass) x (acceleration) is Force.

So Force is the rate of change of momentum.    Verrrrrrrry interesting !

In this problem, Force = (40 kg) x (9 m/s²) = 360 newtons.

One 'Newton' is one kilogram-meter per second² .
Unit of momentum is (kilogram)-(meter per second), so 'newton'
is also a unit of time rate of change of momentum.

Rate of change of momentum is 360 momentum units per second.

When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force on it. This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the s
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: 1.0052m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Assuming there is only force in the y-component, the total net force F_{y} acting on the parachute and the sky diver is:

F_{y}=F_{D}-W   (1)

Where:

F_{D}=1032N is the drag force acting upwards

W=936N is the weight of the sky diver acting downwards, hence with negative sign

Then:

F_{y}=1032N-936N=96N   (2) This is the total net force excerted on the system parachute-sky diver, and the fact it is positive means is upwards

Now, according Newton's 2nd Law of Motion the force is directly proportional to the mass m and to the acceleration a of a body:

F_{y}=m.a (3)

Where m=95.5kg is the mass of the diver.

Substituting the known values and finding a:

a=\frac{F_{y}}{m} (4)

a=\frac{96N}{95.5kg} (5)

Finally:

a=1.0052m/{s^{2}}\approx 1m/s^{2}  This is the acceleration of the sky diver. Note it has a positive sign, which means its direction is upwards.
