Explanation:

Barometer :

Barometer is a scientific device. It is used to measure air pressure in environment. Air pressure changes with distance upper and bottom sea level.

Barometer is also used for measure altitude.

Barometric pressure has main effects on water and atmosphere conditions.

Hence, Barometer is used to measure air pressure.

A 50kg meteorite moving at 1000 m/s strikes Earth. Assume the velocity is along the line joining Earth's center of mass and the

zysi [14]

As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg

The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s

When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.

We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.

The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -

$Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50* 10^{6}\ J$

$=25*10^6\ J$

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.

$Hence,\ the\ kinetic\ energy\ gained\ by\ earth\ is\ 25*10^6\ J$

Which term is a scalar quantity?

balu736 [363]

Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction.
