Which statement accurately describes the relationship between air pressure, air density, or altitude?​

Physics

Answer:

The answer is: dense air exerts more pressure than less dense air.

Pressure is due to the weight of the above column of the substance which is a force resulting from its weight that is the product of its mass and gravitational pull. The denser the air and the grater the column, the larger its mass and hence the more the pressure it exerts.

Answer:

Denser air exerts more pressure than less dense air.

Explanation:

The options to this question are:

1-As altitude increases, pressure increases.

2-As altitude increases, air density increases.

3-Air pressure and density are lowest at sea level.

4-Denser air exerts more pressure than less dense air.

Analyzing the options:

The first is not true since as altitud increases pressure decreases.

The second one is also not true because as altitud increases air density decreases.

The third one is false since air pressure is the highest at sea level.

The correct option is: Denser air exerts more pressure than less dense air.

because denser air has more particles and more close together than less dense air, so it exerts greater force and therefore greater pressure.

the weight of a piece of stone when fully immersed in water is 18N and it displaces 4N of water. what is the weight of the stone
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

4N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of stone when immersed in water  = 18N

Weight of water displaced  = 4N

Unknown:

Weight of the stone in air  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we employ the Archimedes' principles.

It states that the upward buoyant force on a body is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.

The weight of the water displaced is equal to the weight of the body.

So, the weight of the stone in air  = 4N

To form a hydrogen atom, a proton is fixed at a point and an electron is brought from far away to a distance of 0.529 ✕ 10−10 m,
Elodia [21]
1) First of all, let's calculate the potential difference between the initial point (infinite) and the final point (d=0.529x10-10 m) of the electron.
This is given by:
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {E} \, dr
Where E is the electric field generated by the proton, which is
E=k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} 
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^9~Nm^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb constant and q=1.6\cdot10^{-19}~C is the proton charge.
Replacing the electric field formula inside the integral, we obtain
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} } \, dr = k_e  \frac{q}{d}= 27~V

2) Then, we can calculate the work done by the electric field to move the electron (charge q_e=-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) through this \Delta V. The work is given by
W=-q_e \Delta V = - (-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) (27V)=4.35\cdot10^{-18}~J
