Answer: A. The vertical temperature line indicates no change in temperature at those altitudes.

Explanation: In the troposphere, as we move upwards in altitude the temperature falls 1°C for every 66 km. But near the stratosphere in the tropopause region, the temperature becomes constant because this part does not significantly absorb solar radiation. Most of the heat gets trapped into the ozone layer that is situated above in the stratosphere and then the rest of the heat is radiated to the lower layers of the atmosphere.

Suppose an automobile has 2000-joules of kinetic energy. when it moves at twice the speed, what will be its kinetic energy? what
NeX [460]

Answer:

K.Eₓ = 4 K.E

K.Eₓ = 9 K.E

Explanation:

Th formula for the kinetic energy of a body is given as follows:

K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\   ---------------equation (1)

where,

K.E = Kinetic Energy of Automobile

m = mass of automobile

v = speed of automobile

For twice speed:

vₓ = 2v

then,

K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{x}^2\\K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2\\K.E_{x} = 4\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\

using equation (1):

<u>K.Eₓ = 4 K.E</u>

For thrice speed:

vₓ = 3v

then,

K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{x}^2\\K.E_{x} = \frac{1}{2}m(3v)^2\\K.E_{x} = 9\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\

using equation (1):

<u>K.Eₓ = 9 K.E</u>

Determine the angle of an incline that would yield a constant velocity, given the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10.
azamat

Answer:

\theta=5.71^{o}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we mus start by drawing a free body diagram of the given situation (See attached picture).

From the free body diagram we can now do a sum of forces in the x and y direction. Let's start with the y-direction:

\sum F_{y}=0

-W_{y}+N=0

N=W_{y}

so:

N=mgcos(\theta)

now we can go ahead and do a sum of forces in the x-direction:

\sum F_{x}=0

the sum of forces in x is 0 because it's moving at a constant speed.

-f+W_{x}=0

-\mu_{k}N+mg sen(\theta)=0

-\mu_{k}mg cos(\theta)+mg sen(\theta)=0

so now we solve for theta. We can start by factoring mg so we get:

mg(-\mu_{k} cos(\theta)+sen(\theta))=0

we can divide both sides into mg so we get:

-\mu_{k} cos(\theta)+sen(\theta)=0

this tells us that the problem is independent of the mass of the object.

\mu_{k} cos(\theta)=sen(\theta)

we now divide both sides of the equation into cos(\theta) so we get:

\mu_{k}=\frac{sen(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

\mu_{k}=tan(\theta)

so we now take the inverse function of tan to get:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\mu_{k})

so now we can find our angle:

\theta=tan^{-1}(0.10)

so

\theta=5.71^{o}

The atmosphere of Jupiter is essentially made up of hydrogen, H2. For H2, the specific gas constant is 4157 J/(kg K). The accele
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

h=17357.9m

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is just related to the weight of an arbitrary column of gas in the atmosphere above a given area. So, if you are higher in the atmosphere less gass will be over you, which means you are bearing less gas and the pressure is less.

To calculate this, you need to use the barometric formula:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{Mg}{RT}h}

Where R is the gas constant, M the molar mass of the gas, g the acceleration of gravity, T the temperature and h the height.

Furthermore, the specific gas constant is defined by:

R_{H_2}=\frac{R}{M}

Therefore yo can write the barometric formula as:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

at the surface of the planet (h =0) the pressure is P_0[\tex]. The pressure at the height requested is half of that:[tex]P=\frac{P_0}{2}

applying to the previuos equation:

\frac{P_0}{2} =P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

solving for h:

h=17357.9m
