Answer:
A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules
Explanation:
Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.
The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm
1 atm = 101325 Pa
As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.
The answer is 1,600 J.
A work (W) can be expressed as a product of a force (F) and a
distance (d):
W = F · d<span>
We have:
W = ?
F = 20 N = 20 kg*m/s</span>²
d = 80 m
_____
W = 20 kg*m/s² * 80 m
W = 20 * 80 kg*m/s² * m
W = 1600 kg*m²/s²
W = 1600 J
Speed equals distance divided by time, so 350 divided by 2.5 equals 140 kilometers per hour.
Answer:
The pendulum of the clock.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The kinetic energy is the energy associated with the velocity of the object. The potential energy is the energy associated with the position of the object. In the objects listed in the question, only one object is moving: the pendulum of the clock (assuming that the clock is functioning). If the clock functions, the pendulum is moving when it is at the lowest point of its arc of motion and with maximum velocity. All potential energy that the pendulum stored when it reached the highest height, is transformed into kinetic energy at the lowest point. Thus, at that point, the object has more kinetic energy than potential energy.
