Why do you need to breath faster at the top of a mountain

Physics
1 answer:
Dovator [93]3 years ago
6 0
Because of the higher elevation. As much as we go away from earth by increasing altitude, there will occur lacoccuren. due to this, we need to breathe fast to get suffient oxygen by time at top of the mountain. We breathe faster at the top of a tall mountain due to a natural reflex. As we go higher up a mountain, the density of air and oxygen decreases, i.e. the amount of oxygen in the air decreases along with other gases. Therefore, to maintain the regular supply of oxygen, the body breathes faster. If we go too high without oxygen tanks, we could fall unconscious and die within 8 minutes due to oxygen deprivation.

Hope this helps! let me know if you need anything else!!

By tightening a string you are actually putting more stress on the string you are giving it a new frequency that isn't natural.

Answer: <u>In a divergent plate boundary</u>, seafloor spreading taking place. It leads to the formation of oceans as new materials are added here along the mid-oceanic ridge. There occur volcanism and shallow-focus earthquakes.

<u>In a convergent plate boundary</u>, two plates collide to form high mountain belts and also volcanic eruptions take place. There occur long chains of volcanic as well as island arcs, in association with deep-focus earthquakes.

<u>In a transform plate boundary</u>, two plates slide past each other, conserving the plates. Shallow-focus earthquakes are generated here.

The earth has experienced various geological processes, such as weathering and erosion of rocks, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, mass extinction events, plate tectonic movements and many more. These continuous processes have configured the present shape of the earth's surface.

For example, the breaking up of the supercontinent Pangea divided into Laurasia and Gondwanaland and subsequently formed the present scenario. This separation of continents has taken place due to the convection current that generates in the mantle.

25. Explain why the speed of sound is faster in solids than in gases. Include two other factors Chapter 17 says the speed of sou
aksik [14]
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.

Answer:

a = (v2 - v1) / t

From A to B    (8 - 4) m/s / 1 s = 4 m / s^2

From A to D    ( 7 - 4) m/s / 5 s = .6 m / s^2

Note these equations hold for "uniform" values

They say nothing about the acceleration at intermediate points - the equation just says that his average speed increased from 4 m/s to 7 m/s during a 5 sec period
