Approximately how much air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere?
laila [671]

Approximately 101 N air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross-section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere

The basic level for determining height and depth on Earth is the sea level. The ocean's surface tends to seek the same level since it is one continuous body of water. However, the sea level is never fully level due to winds, currents, river discharges, and changes in gravity and temperature.

At the equator, the radius of the Earth at sea level is 6378.137 km (3963.191 mi). At the poles, it is 6,356.752 km (3,949.903 km), and on average, it is 6,371.001 km (3,958.756 mi). The elevation of the shoreline—the boundary between the ocean and the land—is referred to as sea level. Land that is higher than this altitude is above sea level, and land that is lower is below sea level.

Formed through longshore drift<br> a. sea stack<br> b. sandbar<br> c. spit<br> d. headland
ANTONII [103]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em><u>Sand Spit or Spit </u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Long shore drift is the process that occurs when a sheet of water moves on and off the beach, in other words the swash and back swash</u></em>, thus capturing and transporting sediment on the beach back out to the sea.
  • <em><u>Sandbar</u></em> is normally formed when the sandspit stretches across a bay and connects the two sides. <em><u>Headland</u></em> is a high piece of land that extends out onto the sea. <em><u>Sea stacks </u></em>on the other hand results from the collapsing of the roof of the arch.

A camcorder has a power rating of 16 watts. If the output voltage from its battery is 7 volts, what current does it use?
GenaCL600 [577]

Power= current*voltage or P=IV

so 16 watts=I*7 volts

divide on both sides to isolate I so you get

I= 16/7 which is about 2.3 amps

Eating an orange enables a person to perform about 3.5x10^4 J of work. To what height does eating and orange enable a 55kg woman
crimeas [40]
Joules is a unit for work which may decomposed into N.m. Work is a quantity which is a product of force (in this case, the woman's weight) and the distance she has traveled. 
 
                                    W = F x d      ;    d = W / F

Substituting the given, 
  
                             d = (3.5 x 10^4 J) / (55 kg x 9.8 m/s²) = 64.94 m

Thus, the woman can climb up to 64.94 meters.

An RV is traveling 60 km/h along a highway. A boy sitting near the driver of the RV throws a ball to another boy at the back end
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Speed of the ball relative to the boys: 25 km/h

Speed of the ball relative to a stationary observer: 35 km/h

Explanation:

The RV is travelling at a velocity of

v_{RV}=+60 km/h

Here we have taken the direction of motion of the RV as positive direction.

The boy sitting near the driver throws the ball back with speed of 25 km/h, so the velocity of the ball in the reference frame of the RV is

v_B = -25 km/h

with negative sign since it is travelling in the opposite direction relative to the RV. Therefore, this is the velocity measured by every observer in the reference frame of the RV: so the speed measured by the boys is

v = 25 km/h

Instead, a stationary observer outside the RV measures a velocity of the ball given by the algebraic sum of the two velocities:

v = +60 km/h + (-25 km/h) = +35 km/h

So, he/she measures a speed of 35 km/h.
