Which statement best describes air pressure at high altitudes? (Points : 3)
WARRIOR [948]
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. this is because air pressure is caused by the gravity of earth, the gravity pulls on the air, compacting it and making a pressure.
But as we go higher, gravity decreases, causing less pull on the air resulting in less air pressure.<span />

which instrument is best suited for measuring the dimensions of a shoebox? a)a triple-beam balance b)a volumetric flask c)a rule
Aloiza [94]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The instrument that is <span>best suited for measuring the dimensions of a shoebox would be a ruler. A triple-beam balance is for measuring mass. A volumetric flask is for volume. A caliper is measuring lengths of small objects.</span>

amm1812

For a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break chemical bonds

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reactions can be classified as chemical reaction, nuclear reaction, thermal reaction. So in these three reaction types, the nature of energy will only be varying.

But in order to execute a reaction, there should be breaking of existing bonds and then formation of new bonds. So for breaking of the bonds of reactants, energy should be absorbed from the surrounding.

Then the extra energy will be released after forming the products. Thus, the process of absorption of energy will lead to endothermic process and the process of releasing of energy will lead to exothermic reaction. So for a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break the chemical bonds.

An open 1-m-diameter tank contains water at a depth of 0.5 m when at rest. As the tank is rotated about its vertical axis the ce
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Angular velocity (w) = 8.86 rad/s

Explanation:

Angular velocity (w) = \sqrt{} 4ghi/R^{2}

g= 9.81 m/s

R= 0.5

hi (initial depth) = 0.5m

Hence= \sqrt4* 9.81* 0.5/0.5^{2}  = 8.86 rad/s

A student team is to design a human powered submarine for a design competition. The overall length of the prototype submarine is
Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) The speed is 61.42 m/s

b) The drag force is 10.32 N

Explanation:

a) The Reynold´s number for the model and prototype is:

Re_{m} =\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m}   }{u_{m} }

Re_{p} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p}   }{u_{p} }

Equaling both Reynold's number:

\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p}   }{u_{p} }=\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m}   }{u_{m} }

Clearing Vm:

V_{m} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} u_{m}   }{u_{p} p_{m} L_{m} }=\frac{999.1*0.56*8*1.849x10^{-5} }{1.138x10^{-3}*1.184*1 } =61.42m/s

b) The drag force is:

\frac{F_{Dm} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2}     } =\frac{F_{Dp} }{p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2}     } \\F_{Dp} =\frac{F_{Dp}p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2}     } \\F_{Dp}=\frac{2.3*999.1*0.56^{2} *8^{2} }{1.184*61.42^{2}*1^{2}  } =10.32N
