What are three observations an astronaut might make while viewing Russia at night

Physics
1 answer:
Lunna [17]3 years ago
7 0

1. Physical size of Russia compared to other countries, despite a lack of visible borders from space.

2. Part of Russia's outline would likely be obscured by the various clouds and objects in the stratosphere; this would allow the astronaut to view potential cloud and weather patterns on earth.

3. An astronaut could see outlines of Russia's geography such as mountain ranges.

Hope that it helps :)

The 5-kg block A has an initial speed of 5 m/s as it slides down the smooth ramp, after which it collides with the stationary bl
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block A, m_1=5\ kg

Initial speed of block A, u_1=5\ m/s

Mass of block B, m_2=8\ kg

Initial speed of block B, u_2=0

It is mentioned that if the two blocks couple together after collision. We need to find the common velocity immediately after collision. We know that due to coupling, it becomes the case of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum. Let V is the coupled velocity of both the blocks. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{5\times 5+0}{(5+8)}\\\\V=1.92\ m/s

So, the coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

The atmosphere protects us from _____ and _____.
sveticcg [70]

Answer: B. meteorites, UV rays

The earth's atmosphere plays an important role in shielding the space rocks and meteorites enters inside the earth due to collision with the celestial body. Due to high heat and pressure in the mesospheric layer of the atmosphere these meteorites burned up before reaching the biosphere or hydrosphere system of the earth. The UV rays are protected from entering into the earth atmosphere by the ozone layer present in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. Both meteorites and UV rays can negatively effect the human population. Therefore, the atmosphere is an agent which provides protection against them.

a chamber with a fixed volume of 1.0 meters cubed contains a monatomic gas at 3.00 *10^K. The chamber is heated to a temperature
igomit [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of fixed chamber V=1 m^3

Initial Temperature T_1=300 K

Final Temperature T_2=400 K

Heat Supplied Q=10 J

From First law of thermodynamics

Change in internal energy of the system is equal to heat added minus work done by the system

\Delta U=Q-W

as the volume is fixed therefore work

W=\int PdV=0

thus \Delta U=mc_v\Delta T=Q

c_v for mono-atomic gas is 12.471 J/K-mol

n\times 12.471\times (400-300)=10

n=0.008018 mol

and 1 mole contains 6.022\times 10^{23} molecules

thus  No of molecules=0.008018\times 6.022\times 10^{23}

No of molecules=4.82\times 10^{21} molecules

1. A uniform magnetic field is directed vertically upwards. In which direction in this field should an alpha particle be project
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

1. Fleming's left hand rule

2. It must be projected towards the east

Explanation:

Fleming's left-hand rule states that; When a current-carrying conductor is placed in an external magnetic field, the conductor experiences a force perpendicular to both the field and to the direction of the current flow. This rule was first put forward by John Ambrose Fleming in the later part of the nineteenth century.

Hence if the thumb, fore finger and middle finger of the lefthand are held mutually at right angles to each other; the thumb shows the direction of motion, the fore finger shows the direction of the field while the middle finger shows the direction of the current.

Hence, if the alpha particle is projected eastwards(at right angles) to the uniform magnetic field, it will be deflected southwards in the magnetic field.
