Answer:

Explanation:

Using the formula;

Speed = Distance/Time

Given

Speed = 8km/s

Time = 2hr

Convert 2hr to secs

1hr = 3600secs

2hr = 2(3600)

2hr = 7200secs

Altitude is the distance

From the formula;

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 8×7200

Distance = 57200km

Hence the altitude at this point is 57,200km

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Density of liquid = 4730 kg/m³

Atmospheric pressure on planet X = 8401.7 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure, P = ρgh where ρ = density of liquid, g =9.8 m/s² and h = height of column at earth's surface = 2185 mm. Since P = atmospheric pressure, for mercury, P = ρ₁gh₁ where ρ₁ = 13.6 g/cm³ and h₁ = 760 mm

So, ρgh = ρ₁gh₁

ρ = ρ₁h₁/h = 13.6 g/cm³ × 760/2185 = 4.73 g/cm³ = 4730 kg/m³

The atmospheric pressure on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃     g₁ = g/4 and h₃ = 725 mm = 0.725 m

on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃ = (4730 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 0.725 m)/4 = 8401.7 N/m²

A body accelerate uniformly from rest at the rate of 3meters per seconds for 8 sec . calculate the distance covered by the body
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

96 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 3 m/s²

t = 8 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (8 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (8 s)²

Δx = 96 m

How can biomass energy use improve water quality? a. the combustion of biomass material to produce energy improves water quality
Basile [38]

The biomass energy can use improve water quality in soil erosion and sedimentation are decreased during biomass crop growth. The correct option is C.

<h3>What is biomass energy?</h3>

Biomass energy is obtained by the processing of the dead plants and animal or vegetable, cow dung or wood.

The biomass energy obtained by these bio things, it is enriched with the nutrients required by the new crop plants to grow effectively.

The biomass energy provides good water quality by soil erosion and sedimentation.

Thus, The correct option is C.
