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.

Answer:

increase

Explanation:

think of climbing a mountain. the higher you go the harder it is to breathe. its because air pressure is increasing

You are dragging a block on a surface with friction at a steady speed of 2 m/s and exert a force of 5 N to do so. What is the fo
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Friction = 5 N

Explanation:

As we know that block is moving at constant speed

So the acceleration of the block is zero

So we will have

F_{net} = 0

for net force to be zero

Force exerted on the object by external system must be counter balanced by the force of friction

So we have

F_{ex} = F_f

so we have

F_f = 5 N

Gibbons move through the trees by swinging from successive handholds, as we have seen. To increase their speed, gibbons may brin
Sedbober [7]

By bring their legs close to their bodies, they are decreasing the length of the pendulum which help them move more quickly.

A pendulum is nothing but a body suspended from a fixed point so that it can swing back and forth under the influence of gravity.

Here in this case Gibbons are bringing their legs close to their bodies and reducing the length of the pendulum. Since as the length of the pendulum increases the speed of the movement will be reduced. By bringing their legs close to their bodies they are reducing the length and in turn their speed increase and they move quickly.

Answer:

(from top to bottom)

350 N, 80 kg, 10 m/s^2, 80 kg, -15 m/s^2, -3000 N

Explanation:

Force = Mass*Acceleration (aka F = ma)

Using algebra, you can find the variables/unknown values.
