Answer : A. It decreases and then increases.

Explanation :  Troposphere is the lowermost layer of atmosphere.

Stratosphere is next layer up to the troposphere. As the jet descends from stratosphere towards the troposphere, the temperature initially decreases and then at troposphere is roughly constant and then steadily increases.

So, option (A) is correct.

Compare between chromosphere, corona and photosphere
gladu [14]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Photosphere: The lowest layer of the sun is called photo sphere . It is about 300 miles thick from the surface. It is the source of solar flares. It is  marked by bright bubbling granules of plasma.

chromosphere emits a reddish glow as the super heated hydrogen burns off but the red rim can only be seen during total solar eclipse.

The third layer of the sun atmosphere is Corona. It can also only be seen during during a total solar eclipse. Temperature in corona can reach as high as 3.5 million degree fahrenheit.  As the gases cool they become solar winds.

While driving north at 25 m/s during a rainstorm you notice that the rain makes an angle of 38° with the vertical. While driving
Natali [406]

Answer:21.33^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given

velocity of driver v_1=25 m/s w.r.t ground towards north

driver observes that rain is making an angle of 38^{\circ} with vertical

While returning v_2=25 m/s w.r.t. ground towards south

suppose u_1=velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards north

u_2=velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards south

z=vector sum of u_1 & v_1

Now from graph

\tan 38=\frac{v_1+v_2}{u_2}

u_2=\frac{25+25}{\tan 38}=64 m/s

z=\vec{u_2}+\vec{v_2}

therefore magnitude of z is given by

|z|=\sqrt{u_2^2+v_2^2}

|z|=\sqrt{64^2+25^2}

|z|=68.70 m/s

\tan A=\frac{v_2}{u_2}

\tan A=\frac{25}{64}=0.3906

A=21.33^{\circ}

Thus rain drops make an angle of 21.33^{\circ} w.r.t to ground

A pendulum with a length of 2 m has a period of 2.8 s. What is the period of a pendulum with a length of 8 m
Ugo [173]

Answer:

P = 2 pi (L / g)^1/2

P2 / P1 = (8 / 2)^1/2 = 2

The period would be twice as long or 5.6 sec.
