What air pollution is and its rate of spreading worldwide?

Physics
1 answer:
slavikrds [6]2 years ago

Answer:

Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air. Car emissions, chemicals from factories, dust, pollen and mold spores may be suspended as particles. Ozone, a gas, is a major part of air pollution in cities. When ozone forms air pollution, it's also called smog.

The life cycle of stars may be boiled down into a tug of war, lasting billions of years, between two basic forces. In your own w
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Stars are very massive stellar objects, which means that they have a very intense force of gravity. This is the first of the forces entering this "war".

In addition to that, due to the force of gravity that drives the star to contract, the process known as fusion occurs (the union of atoms of one element that results in another element, hydrogen fuses in stars to produce helium). The fusion created in the high temperatures of the center of the star generates an enormous amount of energy (which causes the stars to shine) and a force going outward of the star counteracting gravity, this is the second force in the "war" .

In a stable star these two forces (gravity going inward and the pressure created by the fusion going outward ) are in balance, preventing the star from exploding or collapsing. But eventually the star exhausts its "fuel" (hydrogen atoms) to produce fusion within it (although stars also fuse helium and other heavier elements, but once the hydrogen is finished the star is near its end), which decreases the force outward from the star, making the force that wins this battle to be the force of gravity.

When the force of gravity wins, the star collapses on itself and from here, depending on the star's mass, several things can happen, such as the star becoming a white dwarf, a supernova, even a black hole.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Part a)

g = 1 \times 10^{-5} m/s^2

Part b)

v = 0.011 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the acceleration due to gravity is given as

g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

g = \frac{G(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3 \rho)}{R^2}

g = \frac{4}{3}\pi \rho G R

now we know that

\rho = \frac{M}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3}

\rho = \frac{5.98 \times 10^{24}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi (6.37 \times 10^6)^3}

\rho = 5523.2 kg/m^3

now we have

g = \frac{4}{3}\pi (5523.2) (6.67 \times 10^{-11})(6.5)

g = 1 \times 10^{-5} m/s^2

Part b)

As we know that the escape speed is given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

v = \sqrt{2gR}

v = \sqrt{2(1\times 10^{-5})(6.5)}

v = 0.011 m/s

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A) V_{rms}=8\sqrt{2} V

Explanation:

Maximum voltage =V_{max}=16 V

Maximum voltage and rms voltage are related to each other by

V_{max}=V_{rms} \times \sqrt{2} \\V_{rms}=\frac{V_{max}}{ \sqrt{2}}\\V_{rms}=\frac{16}{\sqrt{2}} \\V_{rms}=8\sqrt{2} V

E) Thermal energy is released during
vichka [17]

Answer:

e) True, f) False

Explanation:

e) Let consider a close system, that is, a system with no mass interactions with surroundings. Then, we get the following expression by the First Law of Thermodynamics:

Q_{net,in} - W_{net, out} = \Delta U (1)

Where:

Q_{net, in} - Net input heat, measured in joules.

W_{net, out} - Net output work, measured in joules.

\Delta U - Change in thermal energy, measured in joules.

Please notice that work comprises all kind of work (i.e. mechanical, electric, magnetic), whereas heat comprises all heat interactions including chemical and radioactive phenomena.

If thermal energy is released, then \Delta U < 0, which is caused by three scenarios:

(i) Q_{net,in} < 0, W_{net, out} < 0, |Q_{net,in}|>|W_{net,out}|

(ii) Q_{net, in} > 0, W_{net,out} > 0, |Q_{net,in}|

(iii) Q_{net,in}< 0, W_{net, out}>0

In the case Q_{net,in} > 0, W_{net, out}, the thermal energy of the system is increased. Therefore, thermal energy is released during some energy conversions. Answer: True

f) A liquid solidifies when temperature goes below point of fusion, meaning a realease of heat with no work interactions. That is:

Q_{net, in} = \Delta U, Q_{net, in} < 0 (2)

If Q_{net, in} < 0, then  \Delta U < 0. Then, if a liquid absorbs heat energy, then thermal energy is increase and the liquid does not solidifies. Answer: False.
