The main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere would be temperature changes in these layers. Temperature is one essential property that varies in the atmosphere. Based from this variation, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers and further to three smaller layers -  troposphere, tropopause, the stratosphere,  stratopause, the mesosphere, mesopause, and the thermosphere.The troposphere is the layer that is nearest to the surface of the Earth. It is the part where humans, plants and animals survive. Also, it is the warmest layer of the atmosphere. And as we go higher the atmosphere, the temperature would drop making it much cooler.

Why do seat belts help protect passengers when a car stops quickly? Explain your answer in terms of forces and motions.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

If the driver is wearing a seat belt, the seat belt rather than the windshield applies the unbalanced force that stops the driver's forward motion. The force from the seat belt is applied over a longer time, so the force causes less damage.

Determine the ratio of the resistivity of pure water to silver?
shutvik [7]
Silver is a very good conductor, this means its resistivity is very low (from table, we can check the precise value, which is \rho_s = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m).

Pure water, instead, is a very bad conductor, this means its resistivity is very high, of order of k \Omega \cdot m (10^3 \Omega m ). Even without knowing the precise value of the pure water resistivity, we can estimate the ratio between the pure water resistivity and the silver resistivity by comparing the two orders of magnitude:
r= \frac{10^3 \Omega m}{10^{-8} \Omega m}  \sim 10^{11}

Therefore, we can say that the correct answer is
3 \cdot 10^{11} : 1
