Heat is transferred to the surface of the Earth from the hot Earth's core by conduction and from radiation from the Sun. The atmosphere is heated by absorption of some of the electromagnetic radiation from the Sun, and contact with the warm surface of the land and water.

Which statement about real gases is true? A) Forces of attraction and repulsion exist between gas particles at close range. B) T
olga55 [171]

Answer: A) Forces of attraction and repulsion exist between gas particles at close range.

Explanation:

The <u>Ideal Gas equation</u> is:  

P.V=n.R.T  

Where:  

P is the pressure of the gas  

V is the volume of the gas  

n the number of moles of gas  

R is the gas constant  

T is the absolute temperature of the gas in Kelvin

According to this law, molecules in gaseous state do not exert any force among them (attraction or repulsion) and the volume of these molecules is small, therefore negligible in comparison with the volume of the container that contains them.  In this sense, real gases can behave approximately to an ideal gas, under conditions of high temperature and low pressures.

However, at low temperatures or high pressures, real gases deviate significantly from ideal gas behavior.  This is because at low temperatures molecules begin to move slower, allowing the repulsive and attractive forces among them to take effect. In fact, <u>the attraction forces are responsible for the condensation of the gas</u>. In addition, at  high pressures the volume of molecules cannot be approximated to zero, hence the volume of these molecules is not negligible anymore.

What is surface tension ​
kupik [55]

Answer:

Surface tension is a fundamental property of the surface of liquid. Surface tension is responsible for the curvature of the surfaces of air and liquids. Surface tension is responsible for the ability of some solid objects to “float” on the surface of a liquid.

during a crash, the acceleration was less than 30g. Calculate the force on a 70 kg person accelerating at this rate.
Igoryamba

Answer:

less than 20580 N

Explanation:

According to the newton's second law of motion

Force = mass * acceleration

(assuming gravitational acceleration =9.8 m/s2 )

acceleration = 30*9.8 = 294 m/s2

acting Force = 70 * 294

                     = 20580 N

Since the acceleration was less than 30g  , acting force should also be less than 20580 N
