Atmospheric pressure is greater at the base of a mountain than at

aliina [53]3 years ago

At the top of the mountain, when he tightens the cap onto the bottole, there is some water and some air inside the bottle.  Then he brings the bottle down to the base of the mountain.

The pressure on the outside of the bottle is greater  than it was when he put the cap on.  If anything could get out of the bottlde, it would. But it can't . . . the cap is on too tight. So all the water and all the air has to stay inside, and anything that can get squished into a smaller space has to get squished into a smaller space.

The water is pretty much unsquishable.

Biut the air in there can be <em>COMPRESSED</em>.  The air gets squished into a smaller space, and the bottle wrinkles in slightly.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The rate of change of the distance is 14.89.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 145 miles

Speed of car = 42 miles/hr

Distance covered by car = 55 miles

We need to calculate the the rate of change of the distance

According to figure,

Let OA is x, and AB is y.

Now, using Pythagorean theorem

x^2=y^2+145^2

On differentiating

2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}=2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{y}{x}\dfrac{dy}{dt}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{55\times42}{\sqrt{55^2+145^2}}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=14.89\ miles/hr

Hence, The rate of change of the distance is 14.89.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

a) F = -1035.385 N

b) Backwards

c) s = 15.60 m

Explanation:

Given information

u = Initial Speed of Car = 15.0 m/s

v = Final Speed of Car = 9.00 m/s

t_{b} = Breaking Time = 1.30 s

m = Mass of Car = 1040 kg

Part (a)

To find the force exerted on the car we use the following formula

F = ma

Where

F = Force = unknown

m = Mass of Car = 1040 kg

a = Acceleration of Car / Deceleration of Car = unknown

To find the force (F) we need to first find the deceleration rate (a)

To find the deceleration rate we use the following formula

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Inputting the given values

a = \frac{15 - 9}{1.30} \\ a = -4.615

To find the force

F = ma \\ F = (1040)(-4.615) \\ F = (1040)(-4.615) \\ F = -1035.385 N

Part (b)

Since the value of F is negative this means the the force was opposite the direction of motion, hence the force was backwards.

Part (c)

To find the total distance the car moved while braking we use the following formula

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Where

s = distance traveled

Inputting the values given

(9)^2 = (15)^2 + 2(-4.615)s

s = 15.60 m
