algol133 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>Nitrogen</em>

Explanation:

<u>Composition of the Atmosphere</u>

The atmosphere contains several gases, most of them in small amounts, which may include some pollutants and greenhouse gases.

The most abundant gas in the atmosphere is nitrogen (78%), followed by oxygen (21%) as the second. The inert gas called Argon is the third most abundant gas in the atmosphere (less than 1%).

Finally, the fourth most abundant gas in Earth's atmosphere is Carbon dioxide

This Question is not complete

Complete Question:

a. A hawk flies in a horizontal arc of radius 11.3 m at a constant speed of 5.7 m/s. Find its centripetal acceleration.

Answer in units of m/s2

b. It continues to fly along the same horizontal arc but increases its speed at the rate of 1.34 m/s2. Find the magnitude of acceleration under

these new conditions.

Answer in units of m/s2

Answer:

a. 2.875m/s²

b. 3.172m/s²

Explanation:

a. The formula for centripetal acceleration = (speed²) ÷ radius

Centripetal acceleration = (5.7m/s)²÷ 11.3m

Centripetal acceleration = 2.875m/s²

b. Magnitude of acceleration can be calculated by finding the sum of the vectors for the both the centripetal acceleration and the increase in the speed rate.

Centripetal acceleration ( acceleration x) = 2.875m/s²

Increase in the speed rate ( acceleration n) = 1.34m/s²

Magnitude of acceleration = √a²ₓ + a²ₙ

=√( 2.875m/s²)²+ (1.34m/s²)²

= √ 10.06m/s²

= 3.172m/s²

A 40.0 kg wheel, essentially a thin hoop with radius 0.810 m, is rotating at 438 rev/min. It must be brought to a stop in 21.0 s
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

(a) Workdone = -27601.9J

(b) Average required power = 1314.4W

Explanation:

Mass of hoop,m =40kg

Radius of hoop, r=0.810m

Initial angular velocity Winitial=438rev/min

Wfinal=0

t= 21.0s

Rotation inertia of the hoop around its central axis I= mr²

I= 40 ×0.810²

I=26.24kg.m²

The change in kinetic energy =K. E final - K. E initail

Change in K. E =1/2I(Wfinal² -Winitial²)

Change in K. E = 1/2 ×26.24[0-(438×2π/60)²]

Change in K. E= -27601.9J

(a) Change in Kinetic energy = Workdone

W= 27601.9J( since work is done on hook)

(b) average required power = W/t

=27601.9/21 =1314.4W

There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid
OLga [1]
To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.
