Humid air is lighter, so it has lower pressure.

spayn [35]2 years ago

Answer:<span>Humid air is lighter, so it has lower pressure.

The reason is the molecules of water are H2O, whose molar mass is 18 g/mol.

These molecules displaces molecules of N2 and O2, whose molar masses are:

N2: 2*14g/mol = 28 g/mol, and
O2: 2*16g/mol = 32 g/mol.

Then molecules of 28g/mol and 32 g/mol are being replaced with molecules of 18g/mol, leading to a lower weight of the same volume of air, which results in lower pressure.

What role does actin and myosin play in the process of muscle contraction?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Muscle contraction thus results from an interaction between the actin and myosin filaments that generates their movement relative to one another. The molecular basis for this interaction is the binding of myosin to actin filaments, allowing myosin to function as a motor that drives filament sliding.

A proposed communication satellite would revolve around the earth in a circular orbit in the equatorial plane at a height of 358
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Period is 86811.5 seconds.

Explanation:

{ \boxed{ \bf{T {}^{2} =  (\frac{4 {\pi}^{2} }{GM}) {r}^{3}   }}}

{ \tt{T {}^{2}  =  \frac{4 {(3.14)}^{2} }{(6.6 \times  {10}^{ - 11} ) \times (5.98 \times  {10}^{24} )} \times  {((35880\times  {10}^{3}) } + (6370 \times  {10}^{3} )) {}^{3}   }} \\  \\ { \tt{T {}^{2}  =  7.54 \times {10}^{9} }} \\ { \tt{T =  \sqrt{7.54 \times  {10}^{9} } }} \\ { \tt{T = 86811.5 \: seconds}}

What figure represents a longitudinal figure
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.
