Answer:

107 °F

Explanation:

Given that

The temperature at sea level = 100°F

height ,h= 2000 feet

The average lapse rate = 3.5°F/1000 feet

Given that rise in temperature 3.5°F per 1000 feet.

1000 feet ⇒ 3.5°F

Given that 2000 feet

2000 feet ⇒ 3.5°F x 2 +100°F

2000 feet ⇒ 107 °F

Therefore the temperature will be 107 °F  .

Which statement correctly distinguishes between mechanical and electromagnetic waves?
mezya [45]
The statement that correctly distinguishes between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is: "<span>Mechanical waves carry energy through matter; electromagnetic waves carry energy through space.</span>" Mechanical waves need a medium to propagate, therefore they can only carry energy through matter. Electromagnetic is not limited by vacuum, therefore they can carry energy through space.

The moon Phobos orbits Mars
shepuryov [24]

27.9816 \times 10^{3} s is the period of orbit.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The equation that is useful in describing satellites motion is Newton form after Kepler's Third Law. The period of the satellite (T) and the average distance to the central body (R) are related as the following equation:

                  \frac{T^{2}}{R^{3}}=\frac{4 \times \pi^{2}}{G \times M_{c e n t r a l}}

Where,

T is the period of the orbit

R is the average radius of orbit

G is gravitational constant  6.673 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \cdot \mathrm{m}^{2} / \mathrm{kg}^{2}

Here, given data

M=6.23 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{kg}

R=9.38 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{m}

Substitute the given values, we get T as

      \frac{T^{2}}{\left(9.38 \times 10^{6}\right)^{3}}=\frac{4 \times(3.14)^{2}}{\left(6.673 \times 10^{-11}\right) \times 6.23 \times 10^{23}}

      T^{2}=\frac{4 \times 9.8596 \times 825.29 \times 10^{18}}{41.57 \times 10^{12}}

      T^{2}=\frac{32548.12 \times 10^{18-12}}{41.57}=782.97 \times 10^{6}

Taking square root, we get

       T=27.9816 \times 10^{3} s

Luke Autbeloe drops an approximately 5.0 kg object (weight = 50.0 N) off the roof of his house into the swimming pool below. Upo
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Graph B represents correct graph for velocity time

Explanation:

Initially the object is dropped under the influence of constant force due to gravity

So here we can say its acceleration is constant due to gravity

hence here the velocity will increase downwards due to gravity and it is given as

v = 0 + (-10)t

now when it enters into the pool an upward force of same magnitude will act on it

so net force on it is

F = 50 - 50 = 0

so here we will have no acceleration and it will move with constant speed after that

so here correct graph is

Graph B
