Does air pressure increase or decrease with an increase in altitude?

Physics

Answer:

decrease.

Explanation:

The air pressure is given by

P = h x d x g

where, h is the height of air column above the surface and g be the acceleration due to gravity and d be the density of air.

As we go up, the height of air column decreases, density of air decreases and acceleration due to gravity also decreases, so the value of pressure decreases at altitudes.

A large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?
iragen [17]
Logically both masses will collide and well make a reaction. first of all depending on the small mass it will either merge or unite with the big mass or it will bounce away from it . if this happen it will make a reaction that will affect both masses. Hope this helps if it is incorrect please let me know :)

Help please<br> It’s kinda urgent
user100 [1]

Answer:

a = - 50 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we simply have to replace the values supplied in the given equation.

Vf = final velocity = 0.5 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 10 [m/s]

s = distance = 100 [m]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing we have:

(0.5)^{2}-(10)^{2} = 2*a*(100)\\0.25-10000=200*a\\200*a=-9999.75\\a =-50 [m/s^{2} ]

The negative sign of acceleration means that the ship slows down its velocity in order to land.
