Answer:

1. Burning coal contributes to sulfur aerosols in the stratosphere; these sulfur aerosols have moderated global warming.

Explanation:

Sulfur aerosols both absorb as well as scatter solar radiation coming from the sun , thus saving the earth from getting wormed up . In this way it has moderating effect on the global warming . This is also called global dimming effect. Less of the solar radiation is able to reach earth surface due to these aerosol.

Luden [163]
The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
 d = v * t
 Where,
 v = speed
 t = time
 We have then:
 d = v * t
 d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
 The kinetic energy is:
 K = ½mv²
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed
 K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
 The work due to friction is
 w = F * d
 Where,
 F = Force
 d = distance:
 w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
 The power will be:
 P = (K + work) / t
 Where,
 t: time
 P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
 answer:
 the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

A cannon at rest fires a 32.5 kg cannonball forward at 388 m/s. After firing, the cannon recoils at 7.42 m/s. What is the mass o
Bond [772]

Answer:

1700 kg

Explanation:

Let’s use conservation of momentum

32.5 * 388 = 7.42 * mc

mc = 1699.46

mc = 1700 kg

The atmosphere of Jupiter is essentially made up of hydrogen, H2. For H2, the specific gas constant is 4157 J/(kg K). The accele
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

h=17357.9m

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is just related to the weight of an arbitrary column of gas in the atmosphere above a given area. So, if you are higher in the atmosphere less gass will be over you, which means you are bearing less gas and the pressure is less.

To calculate this, you need to use the barometric formula:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{Mg}{RT}h}

Where R is the gas constant, M the molar mass of the gas, g the acceleration of gravity, T the temperature and h the height.

Furthermore, the specific gas constant is defined by:

R_{H_2}=\frac{R}{M}

Therefore yo can write the barometric formula as:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

at the surface of the planet (h =0) the pressure is P_0[\tex]. The pressure at the height requested is half of that:[tex]P=\frac{P_0}{2}

applying to the previuos equation:

\frac{P_0}{2} =P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

solving for h:

h=17357.9m

The ground state energy of an electron in a one-dimensional trap with zero potential energy in the interior and infinite potenti
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

0.5 eV

Explanation:

E_1 = Initial potential energy = 2\ eV

E_2 = Final potential energy

L_1 = Initial width

L_2 = Final width = 2L_1

Energy of an electron in a one-dimensional trap is given by

E=\dfrac{n^2h^2}{8mL^2}

From the equation we get

E\propto \dfrac{1}{L^2}

So,

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{L_2^2}{L_1^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=\dfrac{E_1L_1^2}{L_2^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=\dfrac{2L_1^2}{4L_1^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=0.5\ eV

The ground state energy will be 0.5 eV
