As dry air rises, it expands, and this causes it to cool about 1 degree Celsius for every 100 meter rise, up to a height of 12 K

m. If the ground temperature is 15∘ write a formula for the temperature T in terms of the height h (where h is measured in meters and less than 12 Km) above ground.

Answer: T = G - H/100

T= 12 - 12000/100 = 12 - 120 = - 105 degrees

Explanation:

T = G - H/100

T is temperature in centigrade degrees.

G is the temperature in centigrade degrees at ground level.

H is the height above ground level measured in meters.

assuming the temperature at ground level is 15 degrees centigrade, then G = 15.

the formula then becomes:

T = 15- H/100.

at ground level, H = 0 and the formula becomes 15 - 0/100 = 15 degrees centigrade.

at 100 meters, H = 100 and the formula becomes 15 - 100/100 = 15 - 1 = 14 degrees centigrade.

at 12 km above ground level, H = 12000 and the formula becomes 15 - 12000/ 100 = 15 - 120 = -105 degrees centigrade.

The acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?
VladimirAG [237]

We have that for the Question "the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?"

  • it can be said that the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to the slope of the line connecting the origin and the point where the graph where the graph crosses the 0.7s grid line

From the question we are told

the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?

Generally the equation for the Force  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{F}{dx}

Therefore

F=-kdx

k=600Nm^{-1}

now

K.E=0.5x ds^2

K.E=600*(-0.1^2)

K.E=3J

Therefore

the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to the slope of the line connecting the origin and the point where the graph where the graph crosses the 0.7s grid line

A book is sliding along a desk top. Because the book is in motion ,you know that the forces acting on the book are A. Balanced B
Virty [35]
Just because the book is moving doesn't tell you anything about the forces on it, or even whether there ARE any.

Just look at Newton's first law of motion, and this time, let's try and THINK about it too. It says something to the effect that any object continues in constant, uniform MOTION ..... UNLESS acted on by an external force.
