A secondary atmosphere<span> is an </span>atmosphere<span> of a </span>planet<span> that did not form by </span>accretion<span> during the formation of the planet's </span>star<span>. A secondary atmosphere instead forms from internal </span>volcanic<span> activity, or by accumulation of material from </span>comet<span> impacts. It is characteristic of </span>terrestrial planets<span>, which includes the other terrestrial planets in the </span>Solar System<span>: </span>Mercury<span>, </span>Venus<span>, and </span>Mars<span>. Secondary atmospheres are relatively thin compared to </span>primary atmospheres<span> like </span>Jupiter's.<span> Further processing of a secondary atmosphere, for example by the processes of </span>biological life<span>, can produce a </span>tertiary atmosphere<span>, such as that of </span>Earth<span>.</span>

What is the distance an object would be from Earth if its parallax were one arcsecond?
ZanzabumX [31]
The correct answer is (a.) a parsec. A parsec is a distance an object would be from Earth if its parallax were one arcsecond. This unit of measurement is usually used in astronomy which makes it easier for astronomers to calculate or measure in space accurately.

What is harmonic motion
Tanzania [10]

Answer:  NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONONONO

Explanation: simple harmonic motion, in physics, repetitive movement back and forth through an equilibrium, or central, position, so that the maximum displacement on one side of this position is equal to the maximum displacement on the other side. The time interval of each complete vibration is the same. The force responsible for the motion is always directed toward the equilibrium position and is directly proportional to the distance from it. That is, F = −kx, where F is the force, x is the displacement, and k is a constant. This relation is called Hooke’s law.

A specific example of a simple harmonic oscillator is the vibration of a mass attached to a vertical spring, the other end of which is fixed in a ceiling. At the maximum displacement −x, the spring is under its greatest tension, which forces the mass upward. At the maximum displacement +x, the spring reaches its greatest compression, which forces the mass back downward again. At either position of maximum displacement, the force is greatest and is directed toward the equilibrium position, the velocity (v) of the mass is zero, its acceleration is at a maximum, and the mass changes direction. At the equilibrium position, the velocity is at its maximum and the acceleration (a) has fallen to zero. Simple harmonic motion is characterized by this changing acceleration that always is directed toward the equilibrium position and is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. Furthermore, the interval of time for each complete vibration is constant and does not depend on the size of the maximum displacement. In some form, therefore, simple harmonic motion is at the heart of timekeeping.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming school is at the end of the 20 mile route, then

20 mi / 35 mi/hr = 0.57142...hr

which is about 34 minutes 17 seconds

Neko [114]

Answer: 185.5672566

Explanation:  The friction is not relevant

Normal reaction is the force perpendicular to the surface.

this force resists the downwards forces applied which are gravity and a component of the applied force.

Infer why the output force exerted by a rake must be less than input force?
adell [148]
<h3><u>Answer and Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • input force refers to the force exerted on a machine, also known as the effort, while the output force is the force machines produce or the Load. The ratio of output force to input force gives the mechanical advantage of a simple machine
  • <em><u>The output force exerted by the rake must be less than the input force because one has to use force while raking. The force used to move the rake is the input force. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The rake is not going to be able to convert all of the input force into output force, the force the rake applies to move the leaves, because of friction.</u></em>
