The atmosphere of earth does not escape into the space but remains attached to earth's surface why??

1 answer:

7 0

Just like any other gas or mixture of gases, the gas molecules are
zipping around in all different directions and with a whole range of
different speeds.

Those that happen to be moving at a speed greater than the Earth's
"escape velocity", AND are pointed away from Earth, AND don't hit
any other molecules before they escape, are lost.

With the combination of Earth's escape velocity, and the temperatures,
thickness, and density of the atmosphere, that process happens slowly
enough to have maintained an atmosphere around this planet until now.

Personally, I hope it hangs around for a while longer. But with the constant
increase in temperature that's been going on, you never know . . .

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

1.86 m

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes to travel the horizontal distance. Given:

Δx = 52 m

v₀ = 26 m/s cos 31.5° ≈ 22.2 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

Find: t

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

52 m = (22.2 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s²) t²

t = 2.35 s

Next, find the vertical displacement. Given:

v₀ = 26 m/s sin 31.5° ≈ 13.6 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t = 2.35 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (13.6 m/s) (2.35 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (2.35 s)²

Δy = 4.91 m

The distance between the ball and the crossbar is:

4.91 m − 3.05 m = 1.86 m

If =12a andthe distance from each wire to point p is 0.12m, then what is the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on

vaieri [72.5K]

The magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is

2×10⁻⁵ N/m

<h3>How can we calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire ?</h3>

To calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire, we are using the formula

F= $\frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}$

Here we are given,

$\mu_0$ = magnetic permeability

= 4 $\pi$ ×10⁻⁷ H m⁻¹

If= 12 A

d= distance from each wire to point.

=0.12m

Now we put the known values in the above equation, we get

F= $\frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}$

Or, F = $\frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 12}{2\pi \times 0.12}$

Or, F= 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

From the above calculation, we can conclude that the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

7. A Candle is placed 4 cm in front of a convex lens. The image of the candle is focused on a sheet of paper that is exactly 10

velikii [3]

Answer:

Magnification m is 2.5cm

Explanation:

This problem bothers on lenses

Given data

Object distance u= 4cm

Height of object v= 10 cm

The problem is quite straightforward seeing that object and image distances are given

We know that the magnification

m= size of image/size of object

m= v/u= 10/4 = 2. 5cm

What is a convex lens

A convex lens is a type of lens that has the centre thicker than the ends, the thickness at the centre makes the lens surface to curve outward. Convex lens causes close light rays of light to converge at a point after refraction.
