Answer:
A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules
Explanation:
Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.
The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm
1 atm = 101325 Pa
As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.
Answer:
Weight
Explanation:
The spring balance is used to measure weight of an object.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Vector A points up
Vector B points right
The combination must be both up and right which is C
If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.
Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.
Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.
Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.
Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.
