Answer:

a. It would shrink

b. It would expand

Explanation:

a. Since the water bottle is filled with air at atmospheric pressure at 20000 ft, and since atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, when we go up in elevation.

The pressure exerted by the molecules of air in the water bottle seek to balance out the atmospheric pressure as we go higher. Since the atmospheric pressure exerted by the molecules of air in the atmosphere are greater than that exerted by the molecules of air in the water bottle, this causes the volume of the water bottle to decrease and thus shrinks the water bottle until the pressure balances out

b. Since the water bottle is filled with air at atmospheric pressure at 20000 ft, and since atmospheric pressure increases with decreasing altitude, when we go down in elevation.

The pressure exerted by the molecules of air in the water bottle seek to balance out the atmospheric pressure as we go lower. The water bottle expands until the atmospheric pressure outside equals the pressure inside the water bottle.this causes the volume of the water bottle to increase and thus expands the water bottle until the pressure balances out

A flashlight converts?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Energy conversion in flashlight.

Explanation:

When the switch of a flashlight is on, then the batteries inside them will be connected in a circuit and chemical energy from the batteries will be converted into electrical energy and then the electrical energy will be converted into light energy.

Light energy is also called electromagnetic energy.

Hence, among the given options the correct one is the first option that is:

1. Electrical energy into electromagnetic energy is the answer.

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

F=43570.9N

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad, taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}

Which for our values is:

F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N
