Calculating If the average or normal temperature decrease with altitude in the troposphere is 6.5°C/km, calculate the approximat
grigory [225]

Answer:

- The temperature of 10°C will be experienced at an altitude of 2.52 km

- The temperature of 0°C will be experienced at an altitude of 4.15 km

Explanation:

Lapse Rate = -6.5°C/km of ascent.

Lapse Rate = Temperature difference/altitude difference

For the 10°C,

Temperature difference = 10 - 27 = -17°C

-6.5 = -17/(difference in altitude between the two points)

Difference in altitude = 17/6.5 = 2.52 km

For 0°C,

Temperature difference = 0 - 27 = - 27°C

-6.5 = -27/(difference in altitude between the two points)

Altitude difference = 27/6.5 = 4.15 km

Alex is asked to move two boxes of books in contact with each other and resting on a frictionless floor. He decides to move them
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

2.8 N

Explanation:

Fp = 7.7 N

mA = 12.1 kg

mB = 7 kg

Let a be the acceleration and Fc be the contact force between A and B.

By the free body diagram, use Newton's second law

Fp - Fc = mA x a ..... (1)

Fc = mB x a ..... (2)

Adding both the equations

Fp = (mA + mB) x a

7.7 = (12.1 + 7) x a

a = 0.4 m/s^2

Substitute this value in equation (2), we get

Fc = 7 x 0.4 = 2.8 N

Thus, the contact force between the two blocks is 2.8 N.

Two heavy objects of masses 1 kg and 2 kg are moving towards each other under
SOVA2 [1]

The acceleration of the body in terms of the gravitational constant G is G.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation;

F = Gm1m2/r^2

G = gravitational constant

m1 = mass of the first body

m2 = mass of the second body

r = distance between the two bodies

Substituting values to find the force on the two bodies;

F = G × 1  × 2/1^2

F = 2G

For the 2 Kg mass

F = ma

m = mass

a = acceleration

F = gravitational force

Hence,

2G = 2a

a = 2G/2

a = G

What happens when a vector is multiplied by a scalar?
iogann1982 [59]

The scalar operates only on the magnitude of the vector. 
So the length of the vector may change ... becoming longer
or shorter ... but its direction doesn't change.
