Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

What is air masses? And 5 effect of it​
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

an air mass is a volume of air defined by its temperature and water vapor content. Air masses cover many hundreds or thousands of miles, and adapt to the characteristics of the surface below them. They are classified according to latitude and their continental or maritime source regions. Colder air masses are termed polar or arctic, while warmer air masses are deemed tropical. Continental and superior air masses are dry while maritime and monsoon air masses are moist. Weather fronts separate air masses with different density (temperature and/or moisture) characteristics. Once an air mass moves away from its source region, underlying vegetation and water bodies can quickly modify its character.When winds move air masses, they carry their weather conditions (heat or cold, dry or moist) from the source region to a new region. When the air mass reaches a new region, it might clash with another air mass that has a different temperature and humidity. This can create a severe storm.

Air masses can affect the weather because of different air masses that are different in temperature, density, and moisture. When two different air masses meet a front forms. This is one way air masses effect our weather.

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Endless movement between hot and cold will eventually mean the end of the universe. This law is about inefficiency, degeneration and decay. <u>The second law can be expressed in several ways, the simplest being that heat will naturally flow from a hotter to a colder body. At its heart is a property of thermodynamic systems called entropy.</u> Entropy basically means an increase in randomness. Hope this helps mate.

The brachialis attaches to the forearm .035 m from the elbow at an angle of 32 deg. If the brachialis produces 750 N of force, w
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

XY=636N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance d=0.35m

Angle \theta=32\textdegree

Force F=750N

Generally the equation for magnitude of the stabilizing component of the brachialis force is mathematically given by

 XY=Fcos\theta

 XY=750cos 32\textdegree

 XY=636N

flat sheet is in the shape of a rectangle with sides of lengths 0.400 mm and 0.600 mm. The sheet is immersed in a uniform electr
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

Explanation:

Flux is given by

\phi=EAcos\theta

A = Area

A=0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}

E = Electric field = 76.7 N/C

Angle is given by

\theta=90-20\\\Rightarrow \theta=70^{\circ}

\phi=76.7\times 0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}\times cos70\\\Rightarrow \phi=6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

The flux through the sheet is 6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

States that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other
pishuonlain [190]

"Edmond Locard" states that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A French criminologist who was popular as the "Sherlock Holmes of France," the pioneer in forensic science named as Dr. Edmond Locard. He articulated forensic science's fundamental principle "Each touch leaves a trace." This became known as Locard's philosophy of exchange. A Locard hypothesized that each and every time you touch another person, place or object, the result would be an exchange of materials. Burglars, for instance, will leave evidence of their existence behind and take traces with them too.
