When a balloon is deflating, why does air leave the balloon?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

<em>When a balloon deflates air moves out of the balloon </em><em>because the pressure inside the balloon is higher than the pressure outside the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

An inflated balloon has a high pressure region on its inside. Gases always move from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure. When a balloon is inflated its membrane stretches making it even more porous.

The gas molecules inside the balloon easily diffuse out through this membrane. The diffusion rate may differ depending on the type of gas filled inside the balloon and the material of the balloon. For example helium balloon deflates faster than common air balloon.

This is because helium is a light element and can escape easier than gases like nitrogen and oxygen through the porous membrane of the balloon.

A 2.0 m tall person is standing in front of a flat vertical mirror. What minimum height must the mirror have if the person is to
dangina [55]

Answer:

100cm

Explanation:

Since the eyes are 6 cm below the top of her head, the point of incidence of the ray must be

200cm-3cm=197cm

Since the eyes are 194 cm from her feet, the point of incidence of this ray must be

194cm/2=97cm

So the lower edge of the mirror must be 97 cm from the ground and the vertical dimension of the mirror must be 197 cm - 97 cm = 100 cm, which is half the height of the person.

Why do these two magnets attract each other?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When two magnets are brought near each other, like poles repel; opposite poles attract. We like to represent this force effect of a magnet on iron-like objects with a concept called magnetic field. The concept of field can be best understood if we remember the gravitational force of Earth on object near it.

What technologies are astronomers using to look for life on other planets? Why?<br> help!!! please
Brilliant_brown [7]
<h3><u>Technology used by astronomers to look for life on other plants:</u></h3>
  • Space-based Hubble and Spitzer telescopes and Green Bank telescopes are used.
  • Many new satellites are launched to trace earth like planets. Even the telescopes are carried by spacecrafts.
  • Astronomers are using Allen Telescope Array that comprises 42 radio antennas to get hold of signals over a wide range of radio frequencies that are tuned to listen to the regions nearer to the red dwarf star constellations.
  • Scientists needed telescopes that are capable of detecting planets like Earth in our planet’s neighborhood and see if any biological signatures connected to any microbial or other intelligent life can be found.
  • Radio signals are also being used to detect if the outside world has something to communicate so that they can be detected.
