Describe the movement of air over 2 nearby land areas, one of which is heated more than the other.

In this case, the air from the warm area will always start moving towards the colder areas because as the temperature in both lands should be equal. This is one of the laws of thermodynamics.

In mammals, the weight of the heart is approximately 0.5% of the total body weight. Write a linear model that gives the heart we

hammer [34]

Answer:

1201 lbs

Explanation:

Given that in mammals, the weight of the heart is approximately 0.5% of the total body weight.

Let the weight of the heart of a mammal be H

And the weight of the total body be B

The linear model that can gives the heart weight in terms of the total body weight will be:

H = 0.005B

B.) To find the weight of the heart of a whale whose weight is 2.402 × 105 lbs, substitute the whole weight in the formula.

H = 0.005 × 2.402 × 10^5

H = 1201 lbs

Therefore, the weight of the heart of the whale is 1201 lbs

5.An ice skater pushes against a wall with a force of 59 N. Ignoring friction, if the ice skater has

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

<em>Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2</em>

Explanation:

The Second Newton's law states that an object acquires acceleration when an external unbalanced net force is applied to it.

That acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

It can be expressed with the formula:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{F_n}{m}$

Where

Fn = Net force

m = mass

The ice skater pushes against a wall with a force of 59 N. The wall returns the force and the skater now has a net force of Fn=59 N that makes him accelerate. Being m=79 kg the mass of the skater, the acceleration is:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{59}{79}$

$a = 0.75\ m/s^2$

Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

N = 1036 times

Explanation:

The radial probability density of the hydrogen ground state is given by:

$p(r) = \frac{4r^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-2r}{a_{0} } }$

$p(\frac{a_{0} }{2} ) = \frac{4(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-2(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )}{a_{0} } }$

$p(2a_{0} ) = \frac{4(2a_{0}) ^{2} }{a_{0} ^{3} } e^{\frac{-4a_{0} }{a_{0} } }$

$N = 1300\frac{p(2a_{0}) }{p(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )}$

$N = 1300\frac{(2a_{0}) ^{2}e^{\frac{-4a_{0} }{a_{0} } } }{(\frac{a_{0} }{2} )^{2} e^{\frac{-a_{0} }{a_{0} } }}$

$N = 1300(16) e^{-3}$

N = 1035.57

N = 1036 times
