Answer:

The primary components in volcanic gas are water vapor, carbon dioxide and sulfur (either sulfur dioxide or hydrogen sulfide). But you can also find nitrogen, argon, helium, neon, methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Approximately 60% of total emissions released by volcanoes is water vapor, and carbon dioxide accounts for 10 to 40% of emissions.

Answer:

Water vapor

Explanation:

The magma consists of dissolved gases when these gases produce the force the volcanic eruption takes place. The volcanic gases come out and their volume is increased tremendously. The gases present in the volcano are listed below:

The volcanic gases consist of water vapors, carbon dioxide, and sulfur.

These three are the primary gases but the water is present in a higher amount.

The percentage of water is 60%.

The carbon dioxide present in 10-40%.

Other gases present in volcanos are nitrogen, argon, helium, neon methane, and hydrogen.

Hope this helps, Let me know if I am wrong ( I am pretty sure that am not) but let me know anyway..., OH! and Good LUCK! :D ;P

"A 75 kg swimmer dives horizontally off a 500 kg raft. If the diver's speed immediately after leaving the raft is 4 m/s, what is

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

0.6 m/s

Explanation:

Let the raft speed be v.

Given:

Mass of the swimmer (m) = 75 kg

Mass of the raft (M) = 500 kg

Speed of swimmer after leaving the raft (u) = 4 m/s

Now, the given situation can be considered a problem of conservation of total momentum before and after collision.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Here, the swimmer and raft are the bodies in collision.

So, before the collision, both the bodies were at rest. So, initial momentum is 0. Now, from conservation of momentum, the final momentum of the system must be 0 after the collision. Therefore,

Final Momentum = 0

$mu+Mv=0\\\\Mv=-mu\\\\v=-\dfrac{mu}{M}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'v'. This gives,

$v=-\frac{75\times 4}{500}\\\\v=-\frac{300}{500}=-0.6\ m/s$

The final velocity of the raft is -0.6 m/s. Now, speed is the magnitude of velocity.

Therefore, the corresponding raft speed is 0.6 m/s.

Why is nitrogen or helium filled in a filament lamp??

nirvana33 [79]

Argon gas is used in fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs to stop the oxygen in the light bulbs from corroding the hot tungsten filament.The use of argon in lightbulbs prevents the evaporation of the tungsten filaments, which results in increased light bulb life.

After a surface interval my pressure group is D. I want to do a repetitive dive to 38 feet for 32 minutes. What will be my new p

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

New pressure group is N

Explanation:

The Repetitive Dive table has to be checked, the residual nitrogen for the maximum depth of 38 feet as a "D" diver, then add that to the actual dive time to get the total nitrogen time. The total nitrogen time and the maximum depth of 38 feet would put you on a pressure group N.

A 10.0-kg box starts at rest on a level floor. An external, horizontal force of 2.00 × 102 N is applied to the box for a distanc

Harman [31]

Answer:

vf = 11.2 m/s

Explanation:

m = 10 Kg

F = 2*10² N

x = 4.00 m

μ = 0.44

vi = 0 m/s

vf = ?

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law

∑ Fx = m*a (→)

F - Ffriction = m*a ⇒ F - (μ*N) = F - (μ*m*g) = m*a ⇒ a = (F - μ*m*g)/m

⇒ a = (2*10² N - 0.44*10 Kg*9.81 m/s²)/10 Kg = 15.6836 m/s²

then , we use the equation

vf² = vi² + 2*a*x ⇒ vf = √(vi² + 2*a*x)

⇒ vf = √((0)² + 2*(15.6836 m/s²)*(4.00m)) = 11.2 m/s
