Which particle would have the slowest rate of deposition? A.round particle B.very large particle C.particle with sharp ends D.pa
lisabon 2012 [21]

The particle with sharp ends have the slowest rate of deposition  

Answer: Option C  

<u>Explanation:</u>

          As per aerosol physics, deposition is a process where aerosol particles accumulate or settle on solid surfaces. Thereby, it reduces the concentration of particles in the air. Deposition velocity (rate of deposition) defines from F = vc, where v is deposition rate, F denotes flux density and c refers concentration.  

          Deposition velocity is slowest for particles of intermediate-sized particles because the frictional force offers resistance to the flow. Density is directly proportional to the deposition rate so clearly shows that high-density particles settle faster. Due to friction, round and large-sized particles deposit faster than oval/flattened sediments.

Hannah has information about an object in circular orbit around Earth.
Elena-2011 [213]

The correct answer is:

the distance of the orbiting object to Earth.

In fact, we know that the gravitational force that keeps the object in circular motion around the Earth is equal to the centripetal force, so we can write:

G\frac{Mm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

If we re-arrange the equation, we find an expression for the tangential speed of the object:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

and we see that it depends on 3 quantities: G, M (the mass of the Earth) and r (the distance of the object from the Earth).

What can you infer from the fact that metals are good conductors of electricity?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Knowing that these metals are infact good conductors of electricity we can infer that metals are able to hold and conduct certain temperatures. Another thing we can infer is that these good conductors can be used in connection to transferring energy or electricity.

A car is traveling at 120 km/h (75 mph). When applied the braking system can stop the car with a deceleration rate of 9.0 m/s2.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15

Explanation:

Given that;

speed of car V  = 120 km/h = 33.3333 m/s

Reaction time of an alert driver = 0.8 sec

Reaction time of an alert driver = 3 sec

extra time taken by sleepy driver over an alert driver = 3 - 0.8 = 2.2 sec

now, extra distance that car will travel in case of sleepy driver  will be'

S_d = V × 2.2 sec

S_d = 33.3333 m/s × 2.2 sec

S_d = 73.3333 m

hence, number of car of additional car length  n will be;

n = S_n / car length

n = 73.3333 m / 5m

n = 14.666 ≈ 15

Therefore, the number of additional car lengths approximately it takes the sleepy driver to stop compared to the alert driver is 15

Suppose a magnetic reversal accoured today .
Brut [27]
They would have the magnetic parts of the rocks oriented differently. This leaves a trace that allow scientists to find out how often this actually happens (as far as I remember, it's on average once in 800 000 years)
