Answer:

The best statement which describe this is actually:

D. Temperature decreases with altitude until the stratosphere is reached, and then it increases from there.

Explanation:

From the graph shown, it could be seen that, temperature decrease with height. The higher the height, the lower the temperature. <em>For example, from the graph, when the height was around 50 km, the temperature was within the range of -10⁰C to 0⁰C. On the other hand, when the height increases around 78 km, the temperature decreases to the range of  to -70 ⁰C to -80⁰C</em>

A child sleds down a frictionless hill with vertical drop h. At the bottom is a level stretch where the coefficient of friction
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity at the bottom of height h

= √2gh

deceleration on rough horizontal surface

= μg , μ is coefficient of friction

= .27 x 9.8

= 2.646 m / s²

v² = u² - 2as

0 = 2gh - 2 x 2.646 x 19

h =  2 x 2.646 x 19  / 2 x 9.8

= 5.13 m

One of two 25-year-old identical twins begins a trip on a spaceship traveling at 0.8 c while her twin remains on Earth. The twin
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

This equation is based on twin paradox - a phenomena where one of the twin travels to space at a speed close to speed of light and the other remains on earth. the twin from the space on return discovers that the one on earth age faster.

Solution:

t_{o} = 10 years

v = 0.8c

c = speed of light in vacuum

The problem can be solved by time dilation equation:

t = \frac{t_{o}}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}            (1)

where,

t = time observed from a different inertial frame

Now, using eqn (1), we get:

t = \frac{10}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.8c)^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

t = 16.67 years

The age of the twin on spaceship according to the one on earth = 25+16.67 =41.66 years

plz help me with hw A bus of mass 1000 kg moving with a speed of 90km/hr stops after 6 sec by applying brakes then calculate the
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Mass, M = 1000 kg

Speed, v = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

time, t = 6 sec.

Distance:

{ \tt{distance =  speed \times time }} \\ { \tt{distance = 25 \times 6}} \\ { \tt{distance = 150 \: m}}

Force:

{ \tt{force = mass \times acceleration}} \\ { \bf{but \: for \: acceleration : }} \\ from \: second \: equation \: of \: motion :  \\ { \bf{s = ut +  \frac{1}{2}  {at}^{2} }} \\  \\ { \tt{150 = (0 \times 6) + ( \frac{1}{2} \times a \times  {6}^{2} ) }} \\  \\ { \tt{acceleration = 8.33 \:  {ms}^{ - 2} }} \\  \\ { \tt{force = 1000 \times 8.33}} \\ { \tt{force = 8333.3 \: newtons}}
