<u>Answer:</u>

The air is a <u>homogeneous mixture of gases</u> that make up the Earth's atmosphere, which remain around the planet by the attraction force of gravity.

Its properties changes with the altitude, the pressure, the temperature and the density. For example, there is a relation that is <u>inversely proportional</u> between the temperature and the air density.

<h2>When the temperature decreases the density increases. </h2>

Therefore, the air in a cool region of the atmosphere will be denser than the air in a hot region of the atmosphere.

In other words:

<h2>The air in a cool region underneath cloud cover will have <em><u>a higher density than</u></em> a region with no cloud cover </h2><h2> </h2>

The air in a cool region underneath cloud cover will have a higher density than a region with no cloud cover. A region with no cloud cover has warmer air than the surrounding air, it becomes less dense and begins to rise, drawing more air in underneath.

A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

lord [1]

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

A man starts walking from home and walks 2 miles at 20° north of west, then 4 miles at 10° west of south, then 3 miles at 15° no

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

a) R = 2.5 mi b) To return to your case you must walk in the opposite direction or θ = 98º

This is 8º north west

Explanation:

This is a distance exercise with vectors the best way to work these is to decompose the vectors and perform the sum on each axis separately

To use the Cartesian system all angles must be measured from the positive side of the x-axis or the signs of the components must be assigned manually depending on the quadrant where they are.

First vector A = 2 to 20º north west

Measured from the positive x axis is θ = 180 -20 = 160º

We use trigonometry to find the components

Cos 20 = Aₓ / A

sin 20 = $A_{y}$ / A

Aₓ = A cos 160 = 2 cos 160

$A_{y}$ = A sin160 = 2 sin160

Aₓ = -1,879 mi

$A_{y}$ = 0.684 mi

Second vector B = 4 mi 10º west of the south

Angle θ = 270 - 10 = 260º

cos 2600 = Bₓ / B

sin 260 = $B_{y}$ / B

Bₓ = B cos 260

$B_{y}$ = B sin 260

Bₓ = 4 cos 260

$B_{y}$ = 4 sin 260

Bₓ = -0.6946mi

$B_{y}$ = - 3,939 mi

Third vector C = 3 mi to 15 north east

cos 15 = Cₓ / C

sin15 = $C_{y}$ / C

Cₓ = C cos 15

$C_{y}$ = C sin15

Cₓ = 3 cos 15

$C_{y}$ = 3 sin 15

Cₓ = 2,898 mi

$C_{y}$ = 0.7765 mi

Now we can find the final position of the person

X = Aₓ + Bₓ + Cₓ

X = -1.879 -0.6949 + 2.898

X = 0.3241 mi

Y = $A_{y}$ + $B_{y}$ + $C_{y}$

Y = 0.684 - 3.939 +0.7765

Y = -2.4785 mi

a) We use Pythagoras' theorem

R = √ (x2 + y2)

R = √ (0.3241 2 + (-2.4785) 2)

R = 2.4996 mi

R = 2.5 mi

b) let's use trigonometry

Tan θ = y / x

Tanθ = -2.4785 / 0.3241

θ = tan⁻¹ (-7,647)

θ = -82

Measured from the positive side of the x axis is Te = 360 - 82 = 278º

(90-82) south east

To return to your case you must walk in the opposite direction or Te = 98º

This is 8º north west

A proton is moving toward a second, stationary proton. What happens as the protons get closer?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A. Kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, and the proton moves more slowly.

Explanation:

When a moving proton is brought close to a stationary one, the kinetic energy of the moving one is converted to electric potential and the proton moves more slowly.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. A moving proton will possess this form of energy.

Two protons according to coulombs law will repel each other with an electrostatic force because they both have similar charges. This will increase their electric potential energy of both of them.

Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. As it increases, the motion of a body will be slower and it will tend towards being stationary.

A 48.0-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocit

Kipish [7]

Answer:

F = 47.6 N

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law can be expressed as the rate of change of the total momentum, respect of time, as follows:

$F = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

So, in order to find the average force exerted by the skater on the wall, we can find the change in momentum due to the force exerted by the wall (which is equal and opposite to the one exerted by the skater), and divide it by the time interval , as follows:

$F_{wall} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{(48.0 kg*(-1.06m/s)}{1.07s} = -47.6 N$

⇒ Fsk = 47.6 N (normal to the wall)
