Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. this is because air pressure is caused by the gravity of earth, the gravity pulls on the air, compacting it and making a pressure.
But as we go higher, gravity decreases, causing less pull on the air resulting in less air pressure.<span />

In general, air pressure decreases as elevation increases because there is less atmosphere pushing down on the object. So "<span>Air pressure decreases as altitude increases."</span>

Why would knowing the characteristics of circuits be important in designing electrical circuits?
blondinia [14]
The characteristic of a circuit actually indicate how the circuit functions. When one designs a circuit they have a specific function in mind and must know how to combine components in order to fulfill this functions.

The speed of an arrow fired from a compound
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A.) The arrow`s range is 624,996 m

B.) The arrow`s range is 846.887 m, when the horse is galloping

Explanation:

We have a case of oblique movement. In these cases the movement in the X axis is a Uniform Rectelinear Movement (URM), and a Uniform Accelerated Movement (UAM) in the Y axis.

By the way, the equations that we use for the X axis will be from URM, and those for the Y axis wiil be from UAM.

<u>Equations</u>

X axis:

X=v_{ox}*t

v_{0x} =v_0cos(\alpha)

Y axis:

Y= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

A.) First, it is necessary to know t, total time.

To figure out t value, we use UAM, since time is determined by this movement.

Now, at the end of the movement, Y=0, then

0= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

0=2.4m+79m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

Caculate the segcond degree equation to obtain the two possible values for t:

t_1= 10.18 \\t_2= -0.04046

But, in physics, time it could not be negative, so we take t_1= 10.18

Caculate now:

X=79m/s*cos(\39)*10.18s= 624.996 m

B.) Now, the narrow has an additional speed, that could be sum to the speed due to the bow.

v_0= 79m/s+13m/s= 92m/s

Using the same procedure that item A, caculate X

First, we need to know the new time

0=2.4m+92m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

And we obtain:

t_1=11.845s\\t_2=-0.041s

One more time, we take the positive time: t_1=11.845s

Finally:

X=92m/s *cos(39)*11.845s=846.887 m
