How can we protect space shuttles or astronauts from space radiation in the absence of the atmospheric layer?

Earth's protective magnetic bubble, called the magnetosphere, deflects most solar particles, but in the absence of atmospheric layer, Polyethylene is a good shielding material because it has high hydrogen content, and hydrogen atoms are good at absorbing and dispersing radiation.

The Earth’s atmospheres are kept in place by gravity. The air near the ground is pulled on by gravity and compressed by the air higher in the sky. This causes the air near the ground to be denser and creating different layers with different qualities in which are the atmosphere.

Hope that helps ^^

If my mass is 196 lbm and I tackle one of my teammates - while decelerating from a velocity of 6.7 m/s to 0 m/s in 0.5 s, how mu
Olin [163]

Answer:

the force acting on the team mate is 1.19 kN.

Explanation:

given,

mass = 196 lbm

while tackling, the deceleration is from velocity 6.7 m/s to 0 m/s

time taken for deceleration = 0.5 sec        

F = mass × acceleration

acceleration = \dfrac{0-6.7}{0.5}              

                     = -13.4 m/s²                            

1 lbs  = 0.453 kg                      

196 lbs = 196 × 0.453  = 88.79 kg

F = 88.79 × 13.4                              

F = 1189.786 N = 1.19 kN                      

hence, the force acting on the team mate is 1.19 kN.

A substance has density ρ, mass m, and volume V. If the volume is tripled, what is the new mass?
Igoryamba

Since the density of the substance is ρ (rho),

==> every cm³ of this substance has ρ grams of mass.

Then

==> V cm³ of it has ρV grams of mass.  That's ' m '.

and

==> 3V cm³ of it has 3ρV grams of mass.  That's ' <em>3m</em> '.

KI + Cl2 ---&gt; KCl + I2<br> Balance the single replacement chemical reaction.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

2KI   +  Cl₂   →   2KCl     +    I₂

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

        KI   +  Cl₂   →    KCl     +    I₂

The problem at hand is to balance this chemical reaction. To solve this problem we use a mathematical approach;

        aKI   +  bCl₂   →    cKCl     +    dI₂

 Conserving K : a = c

                     I :  a  = 2d

                   Cl : 2b = c  

 Now let a = 1, c  = 1 , d  = \frac{1}{2}, b   = \frac{1}{2}, ;

   Multiply through by 2;

             a  = 2, b = 1 , c = 2, d  = 1

 

            2KI   +  Cl₂   →   2KCl     +    I₂

A heavy object is dropped From a vertical height of 8.0 m. What is it’s spend when it hits the ground ?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Final speed of the ball = Vf= 12.52 m/s when it hits the ground

Explanation:

Height = S= 8.0 m

Initial Velocity= Vi = 0 m/s

Final Velocity= Vf =?

Acceleration due to gravity= a=9.8m/s²

Using Newtons third equation of motion

2as= Vf²- Vi²

2(9.8) 8= Vf²- 0

156.8= Vf²

Vf=√156.8= 12.52m/s

Final Speed of the ball is 12.52 m/s
