What makes us think that mars must once have had an atmosphere that was warmer and had higher surface pressure?

There must once have been a lot of outgassing, and hence a thicker atmosphere. b. The atmosphere is too cold and thin for liquid water today, yet we see evidence that water flowed on the surface in the past.

Daniel put water, sugar, and yeast into a balloon. Then he measured the mass of the balloon. He put the balloon in a warm place
Crank

During the period of 2 hours, the yeast ate the sugar, and generated Carbon-Dioxide gas and alcohol.  This is the process that causes bread-dough to rise, and eventually produces stuff that can be distilled to concentrate the alcohol and make wine or whiskey.

-- If Daniel tied the neck of the balloon, so that nothing could get in r out during the 2 hours, then the mass of the balloon and everything inside it didn't change.  The balloon may have inflated slightly ... due to the creation of gas inside that wasn't there before ... just like bread dough.  But no mass was created or destroyed inside or outside of the balloon, and none got in or out.

-- If Daniel left the neck of the balloon open, then the mass of the balloon and its contents decreased slightly during the 2 hours.  The yeast took carbon and oxygen from the sugar, and used them to make Carbon Dioxide gas.  Then the gas flew out through the neck of the balloon to Freedom.

Which description correctly summarizes how an electric motor causes an axle to turn?
alexira [117]

Answer:

B on edge

Explanation:

the piles of the magnetic field generated around the armature are attracted to the opposite poles of the permanent magnent. As the opposite poles align, the commutator reverses the current direction so like poles are aligned and the armature continues to spin

Not that I know of. Sometimes watching something, listening to music, reading a book, or talking can help. There are some homeopathic remedies that can help as well.

A long wire is known to have a radius greater than 4.0 mm and to carry a current uniformly distributed over its cross section. i
ollegr [7]

Magnetic field outside it due to long wire is given by

B = \frac{u_o i}{2 \pi r}

Magnetic field due to long wire inside wire at any point

B = \frac{u_o i r}{2 \pi R^2}

Now the ratio of two magnetic field is given by

\frac{B_{in}}{B_{out}} = \frac{r_1/R^2}{1/r_2}

\frac{0.285}{0.200} = \frac{4*10}{R^2}

1.425 = \frac{40}{R^2}

R = 5.3 mm

A car of mass 1200 kg is traveling at 2 m/s. Then it collides with a heavy boulder in the road. During the collision, the car mo
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

F = 1.6*10⁴ N

Explanation:

Given distance x = 0.15m, mass m = 1200kg, velocity v = 2m/s.

Unknown: force F

Force is given by Newton's law:

(1) F = ma

The average force to stop an object from a velocity will be the same force necessary to accelerate an object from rest to the same velocity.

The distance for an object starting from rest for a constant acceleration is given by:

(2) x=\frac{1}{2}at^2

The velocity for an object starting from rest for a constant acceleration:

(3) v=at

Using equation 2 and 3 to eliminate time t:

(4) x=\frac{1}{2}a\frac{v^2}{a^2}=\frac{v^2}{2a}

Solving equation 4 for the acceleration a:

(5) a=\frac{v^2}{2x}

Using equation1 to solve for the force F:

(6) F=ma=\frac{mv^2}{2x}
