<u>Answer:</u>

Mt. Everest is 3.79 miles high.

<u>Solution: </u>

Everest is 20,028 ft high.

As given, 1 mile = 5280 ft

So 1 \mathrm{ft}=\left(\frac{1}{5280}\right) \mathrm{mile}

Then 20,028 ft will be =20028 \times\left(\frac{1}{5280}\right) \text { mile }=\left(\frac{20028}{5280}\right) \text { mile }

=\left(\frac{10014}{2640}\right) \text { mile }=\frac{5007}{1320} \text { mile }=3.79 \text { mile }

The height of Everest is 3.79 miles .

Note: The actual height of Mt. everest is 5.4979 miles or 29029 ft.

Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint
djyliett [7]

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

In a paragraph, contrast the characteristics between anorexia and bulimia
FinnZ [79.3K]
Bulimia nervosa is similar in many ways because the individual is obsessed with their weight and wants to continuously lose weight to achieve their idea of a 'perfect' body shape. But with bulimia, there are periods of binging and purging. This means that the individual with bulimia may go through a period where they eat an excessive amount of food and then purge by using exercise, medications or vomiting to get rid of the food.

Scientists plan to release a space probe that will enter the atmosphere of a gaseous planet. The temperature of the gaseous plan
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Scientists plan to release a space probe that will enter the atmosphere of a gaseous planet. The temperature of the gaseous planet increases linearly with the height of the atmosphere as measured from the top of a visible boundary layer, defined as 0 kilometers in altitude. The instruments on board can withstand a temperature of 601 K. At what altitude will the probe's instruments fail? A. 50 kilometers B. 80 kilometers C. 83 kilometers D. 100 kilometers E. 111 kilometers

Explanation:

A. 50 kilometers

The 0.5kg soccer ball moves toward the net with a force of 4N. What is its acceleration?​
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 4 N

Mass ( m ) = 0.5 kg

To find : -

Acceleration ( a ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

a = F / m

= 4 / 0.5

= 40 / 5

a = 8 m/s²

It's acceleration is 8 m/s².
