Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi

gh enough to support the weight of air above it. How would you expect the pressure on Mt. Everest to differ from the pressure in your classroom? Explain why.

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.

2×3.14√(1.0m/(9.8〖ms〗^(-1) )=)
il63 [147K]

This is the period in a simple harmonic motion which is 2 seconds in this question.

<h3>What is Period ?</h3>

The period of an oscillatory object can be defined as the total time taken  by a vibrating body to make one complete revolution about a reference point.

We are given the below question

2×3.14√(1.0m/(9.8〖ms〗^(2) )= T

This question can as well be expressed as

2π√(L/g) which is equal to period T.

In a nut shell, Period T = 2×3.14√(1.0m/9.8)

T = 6.28√0.102

T = 6.28 × 0.32

T = 2.006 s

Therefore, the period T of the oscillation is 2 seconds approximately.

Two parallel plates of area 2.34*10-3 M2 have 7.07*10-7C of charge placed on them. A6.62*10-5C charge q1 is placed between the p
ira [324]

Answer:

The force exerted on the q_1 is  F =  2.25*10^{3} \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The area is  A =  2.34*10^{-3} \ m^2

     The magnitude of charge placed on them is  q =  7.07 * 10^{-7} C

     The charge placed between the plate is q_1 = 6.62 *10^{-5} C

   

The electric field generated around the plate  is mathematically represented as

           E =  \frac{q}{A \epsilon_o}

Substituting values

          E =  \frac{7.07*10^{-7}}{2.34*10^{-3} * 8.85 *10^{-12}}

         E = 34*10^{6} \ V/m

The force exerted the charge q_1 is  mathematically represented as

        F =  q_1 * E

Substituting values  

        F =  6.62 *10^{-5} * 34*10^{6}

        F =  2.25*10^{3} \ N

A key falls from a bridge that is 32 m above the water. It falls directly into a model boat, moving with constant velocity, that
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Speed of the boat, v = 4.31 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Height of the bridge, h = 32 m

The model boat is 11 m from the point of impact when the key was released, d = 11 m

Firstly, we will find the time needed for the boat to get in this position using second equation of motion as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, u = 0 and a = g

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 32}{9.8}}

t = 2.55 seconds

Let v is the speed of the boat. It can be calculated as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

v=\dfrac{11\ m}{2.55\ s}

v = 4.31 m/s

So, the speed of the boat is 4.31 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
