Answer:

That is a very broad question. One thing that does not seem to be considered is the depletion of the ozone layer at high altitudes.

In the 1960's chlorofluorcarbons (CFC,s) became popular as refrigerants, spray can propellants, etc.  In January 1989 the Montreal Protocol was passed which has greatly reduced the use of these substances. However, it may be several decades before the ozone layer can be replaced and again absorb harmful ulraviolet rays that may be partly responsible for the increase in global warming.  

(One chlorine atom at high altitudes can be responsible for the destruction of 100,000 molecules of ozone - catalytic reaction)

There is a 50 g sample of Ra-229. It has a half-life of 4 minutes.
Sloan [31]

Via half-life equation we have:


A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h} }


Where the initial amount is 50 grams, half-life is 4 minutes, and time elapsed is 12 minutes.  By plugging those values in we get:

A_{final}=50(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{12}{4}=50(\frac{1}{2})^{3}=50(\frac{1}{8})=6.25g


There is 6.25 grams left of Ra-229 after 12 minutes.

A 3 kg penguin is pushed by his penguin friends who give him an initial speed vo at the top of a 30 m hill. The penguin is hopin
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

This question can be answered by using conversation of energy.

K_1 + U_1 = K_2 + U_2

\frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2 + mgh_1 = 0 + mgh_2

\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 + (3)(9.8)(30) = (3)(9.8)(45)\\\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 = 441\\v_0^2 = 294\\v_0 = 17.14 m/s

Explanation:

Note that we take K_2 = 0 because we are looking for the minimum initial speed for the penguin to reach the top of the second hill. Any other speed more than this will already be enough for him.

Driving your Ferrari through the Italian countryside at a speedy 88 m/s, you approach an opera diva singing a high C (1,046 Hz).
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

You will hear the note E₆

Explanation:

We know that:

Your speed = 88m/s

Original frequency = 1,046 Hz

Sound speed = 340 m/s

The Doppler effect says that:

f' = \frac{v \pm v0 }{v \mp vs}*f

Where:

f = original frequency

f' = new frequency

v = velocity of the sound wave

v0 = your velocity

vs = velocity of the source, in this case, the source is the diva, we assume that she does not move, so vs = 0.

Replacing the values that we know in the equation we have:

f' = \frac{340 m/s + 88m/s}{340 m/s} *1,046 Hz = 1,316.73 Hz

This frequency is close to the note E₆ (1,318.5 Hz)
