Changes in the earths ability to reflect sunlight (called the 'albeido') due to clouds and other weather like ice formations set up feedback loops that prevent a perfect equlibrium with the sun.

a runner covers the last straight stretch of the race in 4 s. durning that time, he speeds up from 5 m/s to 9m/s what is the run
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The runner's acceleration was 1\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, the following relation applies:

v_f=v_o+at

Solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The runner speeds up from vo=5 m/s to vf=9 m/s in t=4 seconds, thus:

\displaystyle a=\frac{9-5}{4}

\displaystyle a=\frac{4}{4}=1

The runner's acceleration was 1\ m/s^2

Which layer of the sun is responsible for producing the light shown in the picture above?
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

C. Photosphere

Explanation:

The lights shown in the figure comes from the outermost layer of the Sun. This layer is called photosphere.

This is the layer from where the light of the Sun is radiated, before travelling through space and reaching us.

The photosphere is the coldest layer of the Sun: its surface temperature is between 4500 and 6000 K. Its width is approximately 100 km.

A characteristic of the photosphere is the presence of the sunspots, which appear as darker spots, and are regions of lower temperature caused by a concentration of magnetic flux.

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules
