Answer:

It is made up of molecules which are pulled down to Earth by gravity. That pull makes molecules bump into each other, exerting pressure. Our bodies are specially adapted to living under 1 kilogram per square centimeter (14.7 pounds per square inch) of pressure pushing down on us at sea level!Oct 7, 2014

Your friend claims that weather predictions are just guesses. What would you say to change your friend's mind?

VashaNatasha [74]

To change my friends mind, after they've already said weather predictions are just guesses, I would say they are correct, but not only to they use guesses to predict what will happen, but they also, before hand, use atmospheric tools. They then predict from the data collected. They do both.

Ina shoots a large marble (Marble A, mass: 0.08 kg) at a smaller marble (Marble B, mass: 0.05 kg) that is sitting still. Marble

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(0.08 kg)(0.5 m/s) + (0.05 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.08 kg)(-0.1 m/s) + (0.05 kg) v

0.04 kg m/s = -0.08 kg m/s + (0.05 kg) v

0.12 kg m/s = (0.05 kg) v

v = 2.4 m/s

The moon has a diameter of 3.48 x 106 m and is a distance of 3.85 x 108 m from the earth. The sun has a diameter of 1.39 x 109 m

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.00903 rad

0.00926 rad

6.268\times 10^{-6}

Explanation:

s = Diameter of the object

r = Distance between the Earth and the object

Angle subtended is given by

$\theta=\frac{s}{r}$

For the Moon

$\theta_m=\dfrac{3.48\times 10^6}{3.85\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \theta_m=0.00903\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Moon is 0.00903 rad

For the Sun

$\theta_s=\dfrac{1.39\times 10^9}{1.5\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_s=0.00926\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Sun is 0.00926 rad

Area ratio is given by

$\frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{\pi r_m^2}{\pi r_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{d_m^2}{d_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{(3.48\times 10^{6})^2}{(1.39\times 10^9)^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=6.268\times 10^{-6}$

The area ratio is $6.268\times 10^{-6}$
