Explain why the elements nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen are often found in both the Earth's atmosphere and crust.

1 answer:

7 0

The Earth's atmosphere that we know today originated millions of years ago when volcanic activity released materials from the Earth's crust. These were mainly: H2O, CO2, N2, and sulfates. Through the passage of time and adjustments in the atmosphere, a lot of CO2 was converted by plants and algae into oxygen, while N2 remained because it is inert.

A team of bicyclists are on bikes that require 512 J of work to ride. It takes 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears. Wha

Alja [10]

Answer:

84.4 %

Explanation:

Mechanical efficiency = output work/input work × 100 %

output work = 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears

input work = 512 J of work to ride.

Mechanical efficiency = 432 J/512 J × 100 %

= 0.844 × 100%

= 84.4 %

A 2290 kg car traveling at 10.5 m/s collides with a 2780 kg car that is initially at rest at the stoplight. The cars stick toget

avanturin [10]

Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg

initial speed = 10.5 m/s

mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg

distance moved = 2.80 m

coefficient of friction = ?

conservation of energy

m u = (M + m) V

2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V

V = 4.74 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8

a = 4.02 m/s²

now using equation

a = μ g

4.02 = μ x 9.8

μ = 0.41

liquid helium has a very low boiling point, 4.2 k, as well as a very low latent heat of vaporization, 2.00 104 j/kg. if energy i

aksik [14]

$4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }$ long does it take to boil away 2.40 kg of the liquid.

Boiling point of He is $T=4.2 \mathrm{k}$

Latent heat of vapourization $L=2.00 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg}$

Power of electrical heater $P=30 \mathrm{w}$

mass of liquid is $m=2.40 \mathrm{~kg}$

amount of heat required to boil

$\begin{aligned}&Q=m L \\&Q=2.40 \times 2 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} \\&Q=4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}\end{aligned}$

Power $p=\frac{\text { work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{\text { Energy }}{\text { Time }}$

$\begin{aligned}P &=\frac{Q}{t} \\\text { tine } t &=\frac{Q}{P}=\frac{4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}}{10} \\t &=4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }\end{aligned}$

The heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a substance's phase shift is known as latent heat. It could go from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas, or vice versa. Enthalpy, a characteristic of heat, is connected to latent heat.

The heat that is used or lost as matter melts and transitions from a solid to a fluid form at a constant temperature is known as the latent heat of fusion.

Due to the fact that during softening the heat energy anticipated to transform the substance from solid to fluid at air pressure is the latent heat of fusion and that the temperature remains constant during the process, the "enthalpy" of fusion is a latent heat. The enthalpy change of any quantity of material during dissolution is known as the latent heat of fusion.

How to do this, i'm completely lost

vaieri [72.5K]

There are two torques t1 and t2 on the beam due to the weights, one torque t3 due to the weight of the beam, and one torque t4 due to the string.

You need to figure out t4 to know the tension in the string.

Since the whole thing is not moving t1 + t2 + t3 = t4.

torque t = r * F * sinФ = distance from axis of rotation * force * sin (∡ between r and F)

t1 =3.2 * 44g
t2 = 7 * 49g
t3 = 3.5 * 24g

t4 = t1 + t2 + t3 = 5570,118

The t4 also is given by:

t4 = r * T * sin Ф

r = 7
Ф = 32°
T: tension in the string

T = t4 / (r * sinФ)

T = t4 / (7 * sin(32°))

T = 1501,6 N

If a rock is thrown upward on the planet Mars with a velocity of 15 m/s, its height above the ground (in meters) after t seconds

s2008m [1.1K]

(a) The velocity (in m/s) of the rock after 1 second is 11.28 m/s.

(b) The velocity of the rock after 2 seconds is 7.56 m/s.

(d) The velocity of the block at the maximum height is 0.

<h3>Velocity of the rock</h3>

The velocity of the rock is determined as shown below;

Height of the rock after 1 second; H(t) = 15(1) - 1.86(1)² = 13.14 m

v² = u² - 2gh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity in mars = 3.72 m/s²

v² = (15)² - 2(3.72)(13.14)

v² = 127.23

v = √127.23

v = 11.28 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the rock when t = 2 second</h3>

v = dh/dt

v = 15 - 3.72t

v(2) = 15 - 3.72(2)

v(2) = 7.56 m/s

<h3>Time for the rock to reach maximum height</h3>

dh/dt = 0

15 - 3.72t = 0

t = 4.03 s

<h3>Velocity of the rock when it hits the surface</h3>

v = u - gt

v = 15 - 3.72(4.03)

v = 0
