It is said that a gas fills all the space available to it. Why then doesn't the atmosphere go off into space?

Earth has its own atmosphere. That is one reason all the water that has been on Earth has been recycled through the water cycle. It never leaves Earth’s atmosphere.

two charges experience exert a force of 1n on each other when they are 1m apart. what force will these charges experience if the

Kisachek [45]

The force experienced by the charges when they are placed 2 m apart will be 0.25 N.

The force between two charges is given by Coulomb’s Law.

According to this law, the force between two charges varies inversely as the square of the distance between the charges and is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of the two charges.

The above statement is represented by the following equation,

F= K Q1 x Q2/r^2

Here, F = Force between the two charges

K = Constant

Q1 and Q2 = Magnitude of the two charges

r = Separation between the two charges

According to this equation, the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two charges.

Initially, when the two charges are 1 m apart, the force is 1 N.

When the distance between the two charges is doubled,

then according to Coulomb’s Law, the force should decrease by 4 times.

Hence, if the charges are placed 2 meters apart, the force becomes 1/4= 0.25 N.

People living at Earth’s equator are traveling at a constant speed of about 1,670 km/h as Earth spins on its axis. What are thes

Vlada [557]

The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

Please help with science! Describe the magnetic field in the vicinity of a bar magnet.

Katen [24]

The magnetic field is described mathematically as a vector field<span>. This vector field can be plotted directly as a set of many vectors drawn on a grid. Each vector points in the direction that a compass would point and has length dependent on the strength of the magnetic force. </span>

17. A volleyball weighs about 300 grams.

atroni [7]

Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

$\boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}$

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

m = 0.3 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
h = 15 m
PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}$

Replace and solve:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}$

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>

Greetings.
