What is special about nitrogen, and what is its main function in the atmosphere

Physics
1 answer:
Vlad [161]3 years ago
5 0
Nitrogen is the most abundant of the gases present in the atmosphere. 78 percent of the atmospheric air comprises of nitrogen, oxygen makes up for 21 percent and all other gases make up for the remaining one percent. Oxygen is a highly flammable gas and in the absence of nitrogen it would not have been possible to utilize this atmospheric oxygen, hence the presence of nitrogen reduces its flammability and also neutralizes the toxicity of other gases.

PLEASEEE HELP, thank you :)
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Given that the <em>current </em>(Ampere) in a series circuit is same so we can ignore it. We can assume that the total voltage is 60V and all the 3 resistance are different, 20Ω, 40Ω and 60Ω. So first, we have to find the total resistance by adding :

Total resistance = 20Ω + 40Ω + 60Ω

= 120Ω

Next, we have to find out that 1Ω is equal to how many voltage by dividing :

120Ω = 60V

1Ω = 60V ÷ 120

1Ω = 0.5V

Lastly, we have to calculate the voltage at R1 so we have to multiply by 20 (R1) :

1Ω = 0.5V

20Ω = 0.5V × 20

20Ω = 10V

An astronaut holds a rock 100m above the surface of Planet X. The rock is then thrown upward with a speed of 15m/s, as shown in
Harlamova29_29 [7]

The acceleration due to gravity of the planet X is 1 m/s².

The given parameters;

  • height above the ground, h = 100 m
  • initial velocity of the rock, u = 15 m/s
  • time of motion of the rock, t = 10 s

The acceleration due to gravity is calculated as follows;

h = ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\100 = 15(10) - (0.5\times 10^2)g\\\\100 = 150 - 50g\\\\50g = 150-100\\\\50g = 50\\\\g = 1 \ m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity of the planet X is 1 m/s²

Relativistic velocity is of the order of _____ of velocity of light A- 1/15th of the velocity of light B-1/20th of the velocity
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light

Explanation:

We define relativistic speed (or velocity) as a speed that is a significant fraction of the speed of light: c = 3*10^8 m/s

Such that for these speeds, the special relativity theory starts to apply (the relativity effects starts to apply).

Usually, we define relativistic speeds as those that are of the order (or larger) of c/10, which is one-tenth of the speed of light.

Then the correct option is C:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light
