Answer:

The atmospheric pressure and boiling point are directly proportional

Increasing atmospheric pressure increases the boiling point also

Explanation:

The atmosphere contain molecules that are in constant motion. They exert a downward force on a liquid’s surface. The higher the air pressure, the harder it is for the liquid to evaporate. Therefore, the boiling point of a solvent or liquid is affected by the atmospheric pressure and boiling point is raised.

A liquid in a high pressure environment boils at a higher temperature.

When placed in a lower pressure environment it boils at a lower temperature.

Answer:

The rocket's speed relative to Earth is $2.25\times10^{8}\ m/s$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of spaceship = 0.892c

Speed of rocket = 0.426c

We need to calculate the rocket's speed relative to Earth

Using formula of relative speed

$v=\dfrac{v_{s}-v_{r}}{1-(\dfrac{v_{r}v_{s}}{c^2})}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{0.892c-0.426c}{1-(\dfrac{0.892c\times0.426c}{c^2})}$

$v=c\dfrac{0.892-0.426}{1-0.379992}$

$v=c\times0.7516$

$v=2.25\times10^{8}\ m/s$

Hence, The rocket's speed relative to Earth is $2.25\times10^{8}\ m/s$ .
