How and why dose air pressure change with altitude in the atmosphere

Physics
1 answer:
arlik [135]4 years ago

<span>Air pressure changes with altitude because of issues related to gravity molecules have more weight the closer they are to the Earth and more of them move to lower elevations as a result this causes increased pressure because there are more molecules in number and proximity</span>

A jet airliner moving initially at 504 mph (with respect to the ground) to the east moves into a region where the wind is blowin
adelina 88 [10]

Answer

given,

intial velocity = 504 mph

wind speed = 219 mph

at an angle of 29◦

from the data

 The resultant velocity =

V = V_x \hat{i} + V_y\hat{j}

 V = (504 + 219 cos 29^0 ) \hat{i} +(219 sin 29^0 )\hat{j}

 V = 695.54\hat{i} + 106.17 \hat{j}

the magnitude of velocity

V = \sqrt{695.54^2+106.17^2}

V = 703.59 m/s

direction

tan θ =  \dfrac{106.17}{695.54}

θ = 8.676°

How much work does this force do as the particle moves along the x-axis from x = 0 to x = l? express your answer in terms of the
nydimaria [60]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Work done is given as the product of force and distance.

In this case;

Work done  = ∫︎ F(x) dx  

                    = F0 ∫︎ e^(-x/L) dx  

                    = F0 [ -L e^(-x/L) ] between 0 and L  

                    = F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

Name the missing force... Normal <br>   Spring <br>   Tension <br>   Air Resistance
Kay [80]

the missing force is spring force.

The object is hanging from the spring and the spring is stretched by some distance from its equilibrium position.  due to this stretch in the spring , a spring force starts acting on the object trying to regain its equilibrium position.

the spring force is given as

F = kx

where F = spring force ,k = spring constant , x = stretch in the spring.

the spring force balances the weight of the object in down direction and hence keeps the block from falling down.
