What two gases probably dominated precambrian earth's atmosphere?

1 answer:

8 0

I think these gases are water vapor and nitrogen. As the temperature rises, these water vapor molecules, would condense and form the oceans we have. Also, it was said that in the early atmosphere, nitrogen is very abundant and even today the composition of air is 79% by volume.

Answer:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s

When the frequency of an ac circuit is decreased, the current in the circuit increases. which combination of elements is most li

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The combination of elements most likely to comprise the circuit are resistor, inductor and capacitor

Explanation:

The impedance of an LCR circuit shown as

Z = √R² + (X↓l - X↓c)²

Z = √R² + (2π∨L - 1/2π∨c)²

Variation of Z with respect to υ is shown in the figure.

As υ increases, Z decreases and so the current increases.

At υ = υ↓r

Z is minimum, current is maximum. Beyond

υ = υ↓r

Z increases and so current decreases.

so the combination of circuit elements that is most suitable to comprise

the circuit is R, L and C.

Rick shoots a basketball at an angle of 35' from the horizontal. It leaves his hands 7 feet from the ground with a velocity of 2

Korvikt [17]

Given:

The angle of projection of the basketball, θ=35°

The height at which the ball leaves the hand, h=7 ft

The initial velocity of the basketball, v=20 ft/s

To find:

The parametric equations describing the shot.

Explanation:

The range, x of the basketball is given by,

$x=v\cos\theta t$

On substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} x=20\times\cos35\degree\times t \\ \implies x=16.4t \end{gathered}$

The change in the height, y of the basketball is given by,

$y=-v\sin\theta t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

On substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} y=-20\times\sin35\degree\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times32\times t^2 \\ \implies y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{gathered}$

Final answer:

The parametric equations describing the shot are

$\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} x=16.4t \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{equation*} \end{gathered}$

A car is driving away from a crosswalk. The formula d = t 2 + 2 t expresses the car's distance from the crosswalk in feet, d , i

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

1) No, the car does not travel at constant speed.

2) V = 9 ft/s

3) No, the car does not travel at constant speed.

4) V = 5.9 ft/s

Explanation:

In order to know if the car is traveling at constant speed we need to derive the given formula. That way we get speed as a function of time:

V(t) = 2*t + 2 Since the speed depends on time, the speed is not constant at any time.

For the average speed we evaluate the formula for t=2 and t=5:

d(2) = 8 ft and d(5) = 35 ft

$V_{2-5}=\frac{d(5)-d(2)}{5-2}=9 ft/s$

Again, for the average speed we evaluate the formula for t=1.8 and t=2.1:

d(1.8) = 6.84 ft and d(2.1) = 8.61 ft

$V_{1.8-2.1}=\frac{d(2.1)-d(1.8)}{2.1-1.8}=5.9 ft/s$

How is kinetic energy of an object determined?

pentagon [3]

The formula for kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .

How you measure the object's mass and speed is up to you.
You'd need different methods for different objects, and in some
cases, you'd need quite a bit of ingenuity.
