Answer:
A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules
Explanation:
Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.
The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm
1 atm = 101325 Pa
As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.
The mass of lead required to make a 1.00 cm3 fishing sinker is 11.3g.
What is mass?
Mass is a metric used in physics to express inertia, a fundamental characteristic of all matter. A mass of matter's resistance to altering its direction or speed in response to the application of a force is what it essentially is. The change that an applied force produces is smaller the more mass a body has.
Given :
Density of lead = 11.3 g/cm3
Volume of sinker = 1.00 cm3
One of a substance's attributes is density, which is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Mathematically:
Density : Mass / volume
therefore after putting the values,
mass= 11.3g

<span>Earthquakes often cause dramatic changes at Earth's surface. In addition to the ground movements, other surface effects include changes in the flow of groundwater, landslides, and mudflows. Earthquakes can do significant damage to buildings, bridges, pipelines, railways, embankments, dams, and other <span>structures</span></span>
