The basic barometer can be used as an altitude-measuring device in airplanes. The ground control reports a barometric reading of

753 mmHg while the pilot's reading is 690 mmHg. Estimate the altitude of the plane from ground level if the average air density is 1.20 kg/m

Answer:

Δh_air=714m

Explanation:

Given data

P_{1}=753mmHg\\P_{2}=690mmHg\\ p_{air}=1.2kg/m^{3}\\  g=9.8m/s^{2}

Solution

ΔP=P₁-P₂

=(ΔhHg)×pHg×g

=(Δh_air)× p_air ×g

Then

Δh_air=(pHg+ΔhHg)÷p_air

=\frac{13600*(753-690)*10^{-3} }{1.2}\\ =714m

Δh_air=714m

A dragster race car can accelerate from rest to incredible speeds. In one case a dragster is able to finish the 305 m run in 3.6
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

45.89m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Distance S = 305m

Time t = 3.64s

To get the acceleration during this run, we will apply the equation of motion:

S = ut+1/2at²

Substitute the given parameters into the formula and calculate the value of a

305 = 0+1/2 a(3.64)²

304 = 1/2(13.2496)a

304 = 6.6248a

a = 304/6.6248

a = 45.89m/s²

Hence the average acceleration during this run is 45.89m/s²

If there were no external forces acting on the two pucks, their complex motion could be described as the combination of the unif
mote1985 [20]

The absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

<h3>What is a circular motion?</h3>

It should be noted that a circular motion simply means the movement of an object along the circumference of the circle.

In this case, the absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

If the friction is absent, the pucks will continue to move on the same path due to the first law of Newton and the law of conversation of energy. In this case,the results will match the predictions until there's loss in energy.

The magnetic field at the equator points north. if you throw a positively charged object (for example, a baseball with some elec
asambeis [7]
Recall the equation for magnetic force:

F = qv x B          *x is cross product, not separate variable!

If the magnetic field points towards N and you throw E, then the magnetic force would point up, or out of the page. Use the right-hand rule. You point your finger towards the direction of the object, and curl your finger to the magnetic field. Your thumb is the direction of the magnetic force.

Hope this helps!

Physics {deceleration}
seropon [69]
Using kinematic equation, v^2 - u^2 = 2as. 5^2 - 3^2 = 2a x 16. a = 0.5m/s^2. So particle will deaccelerate at 0.5m/s^2. ( v = final velocity, u= initial velocity, a= acceleration, s= displacement.)
