Answer:

B: The air pressure decreases

Explanation:

Pressure at any given height in the atmosphere is the total weight of the air above a unit area at any height.

Increase in elevation leads to decrease or lesser air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.

Answer:

B. the air pressure decreases

Explanation:

As elevation increases, there is less overlying atmospheric pressure mass, so that atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing elevaton.

U can also add solar energy and hydro energy. Solar energy is by using the sun, while hydro is by using the force of water.
This is how hydro energy works:
its is usually built near a waterfall, OK so when the water falls of the cliff of the water fall , it creates a force which helps turn the generator and then it is carried into poles of electricity. 
Hope this helps plus i gave u extra point Good luck :)

At a given instant in time, two cars are traveling at different velocities, one twice as large as the other. Based on this infor
Sati [7]

Answer: No, is not possible.

Explanation:

We have two cars traveling at different velocities, one with velocity v and other with velocity 2*v

We want to know of it is possible to say which of these two cars has the larger acceleration at this instant of time.

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity, for example, if acceleration = 0, the velocity does not change.

Notice that knowing only the velocity at a given instant of time, we do not have any way of knowing the acceleration of each car.

Such that acceleration is given by the second Newton's equation:

F = m*a

force equals mass times acceleration.

We do not know any of these quantities for the cars, so we can not say anything about the accelerations.

We also could know the average acceleration if we know the change in velocity over an interval of time, such that:

Av acceleration = (change in velocity)/(interval of time)

But here we do not have a change in velocity, so again, we can't say anything about the acceleration.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The fringes are 4.7*10^-7 m apart, such that they are adjacent.

Explanation:

Using the formula for adjacent fringes given a single slit:

Δx=\frac{(Wavelength)(Distance between slit and screen)}{Width}

Δx=\frac{(590/10^{9})(1.90) }{(2.30)}

Δx=0.000000487 m

Hope this helps!
