Explanation:
LD₁ = 10⁵ mm⁻²
LD₂ = 10⁴mm⁻²
V = 1000 mm³
Distance = (LD)(V)
Distance₁ = (10⁵mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 10×10⁷mm = 10×10⁴m
Distance₂ = (10⁹mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 1×10¹² mm = 1×10⁹ m
Conversion to miles:
Distance₁ = 10×10⁴ m / 1609m = 62 miles
Distance₂ = 10×10⁹m / 1609 m = 621,504 miles.
The temperature of a balloon is
lowered with liquid nitrogen. The balloon appears to deflate because the gas in
the balloon lost energy and condensed. The answer is letter D.
The gravitational force.
In fact, the motion of the projectile is composed by two independent motions:
- on the horizontal direction, it is a uniform motion (with constant speed)
- on the vertical direction, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, where the vertical acceleration g is given by the gravity exerted by the Earth on the projectile.
For this reason, the composition of the two motions results in a parabolic trajectory.
