Answer: B.

Air pressure decreases as you increase in altitude.

Explanation:

Gravity pulls the gas molecules towards the center of the earth. This pull of gravity becomes stronger and closer to the center at sea level. Air becomes dense at sea level where the gravitational pull is stronger. Gases at the sea level are also compressed by the weight of the atmosphere above them. The force of the earth weighing down over a unit air is known as atmospheric pressure. At higher altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is lower and the air is less dense than at higher altitude.

What city state was located on Peloponnese?
loris [4]

The city state located on Peloponnese was Sparta.

Sparta was the only city state located on the southernmost part of Greece, on Peloponnese. It is one of the two best known city states along side Athens, and it was always one of the two strongest ancient Hellenic city-states.

Sparta though was not like the other city-states of the Hellenic world. While all others were developing some form of partial democracy, where orientated toward trade, science, Sparta was the total opposite. Sparta was ruled by a monarch. All the healthy boys were trained to serve the military and that was their only job in their lives. Most of the hard work was done by slaves. The women had role in the household but also the same rights as the men. The society was mostly striding toward self-sustaining, resembling and ancient type of socialism in a way.

Anne releases a stone from a height of 2 meters. She measures the kinetic energy of the stone at 9.8 joules at the exact point i
nlexa [21]

Eₖ = √1/2 mv²

Eₖ/v² = 1/2 m

2Eₖ/v² = m

mgh = 1/2 mv²

gh = 1/2 v²

2gh = v²

v = √2gh

= √2 × 10 N/kg × 2 m

= 6.324 ms⁻¹

m = 9.8/(6424)²

= 9.8/39.993

= 0.245 g

I am not sure if it's correct.

i transposed for m in the first equation then to find the velocity I combined the potential and kinetic energy equation. there was no mass because velocity doesn't depend on the mass

Then I used earth's gravitational field strength (g) 10 N/kg and the 2 m was the height provided in the question

you can try working and see if you get the same
