Answer:

troposphere

Explanation:

because troposphere is the layer of atmosphere closest to the earth . air is thicker at lower altitudes requiring more energy to push themselves to the sky . however , the air is thinner caused flight more fuel efficient .

A bicycle wheel with radius 0.3 m rotates from rest to 3 rev/s in 5 s. What is the magnitude and direction of the total accelera

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Radius of bicycle wheel $r=0.3\ m$

Initial angular velocity $\omega _0=0$

It rotates 3 revolution in 5 s therefore

$\omega =2\pi 3=\6\pi =18.85\ rad/s$

using $\omega =\omega _0+\alpha t$

where $\alpha =angular\ acceleration$

$\omega =Final\ angular\ velocity$

$t=time$

$\alpha =\frac{18.85}{5}=3.77 rad/s^2$

Total acceleration of any point will be a vector sum of tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration

$\omega at t=1$

$\omega =0+3.77\times 1=3.77 rad/s$

$a_c=\omega ^2\cdot r$

$a_c=(3.77)^2\cdot 0.3=4.26 m/s^2$

Tangential acceleration $a_t=\alpha \times r$

$a_t=3.77\times 0.3=1.13 m/s^2$

$a_{net}=\sqrt{a_t^2+a_c^2}$

$a_{net}=\sqrt{(1.13)^2+(4.26)^2}$

$a_{net}=4.41 m/s^2$

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 20.5 m/s in the +y direction when one of its on board thruster tu

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

a) V_f = 25.514 m/s

b) Q =53.46 degrees CCW from + x-axis

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial speed V_i = 20.5 j m/s

- Acceleration a = 0.31 i m/s^2

- Time duration for acceleration t = 49.0 s

Find:

(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off?

(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis.

Solution:

- We can apply the kinematic equation of motion for our problem assuming a constant acceleration as given:

V_f = V_i + a*t

V_f = 20.5 j + 0.31 i *49

V_f = 20.5 j + 15.19 i

- The magnitude of the velocity vector is given by:

V_f = sqrt ( 20.5^2 + 15.19^2)

V_f = sqrt(650.9861)

V_f = 25.514 m/s

- The direction of the velocity vector can be computed by using x and y components of velocity found above:

tan(Q) = (V_y / V_x)

Q = arctan (20.5 / 15.19)

Q =53.46 degrees

- The velocity vector is at angle @ 53.46 degrees CCW from the positive x-axis.

Of the planets with atmospheres, which is the warmest?<br> a. Venusb. Earthc. Marsd. Jupiter

tangare [24]

The Atmosphere in Jupiter is full of gases that move at high speeds in giant eddies. Its atmosphere consists mostly of gases such as hydrogen that generate a temperature fluctuation of around 128K.

On Earth, due to the protection of the Ozone Layer and the presence of Nitrogen and Oxygen, the temperature fluctuates by an average of 300K.

In the case of Mars, its atmosphere is thin, mostly composed of Carbon Dioxide and Diatomic Nitrogen, which allow a temperature oscillation of 210K.

In contrast, the atmosphere of Venus is thick and is composed of carbon dioxide that does not allow the sun's rays to escape, generating an extreme 'greenhouse effect' with temperatures ranging from 737K,
