As you travel up into the mountains, you notice discomfort in your ears. This is due to ...A. the low pressure in your ears.
B. the low pressure at the bottom.
C. the low pressure in the mountain.
D. the high pressure in the mountains.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: The correct answer is the low pressure in the mountains

Explanation:  

The air pressure is lower in the mountains. As we travel up into the mountains, the air inside our ears takes some time to adjust the pressure change.

This unequal pressure causes discomfort in ears while ascending and descending on the mountain. The condition of discomfort in ear is caused by the pressure difference between the outside and inside the eardrum.

Therefore, as we travel up to into the mountains, we notice discomfort in our ears. This is due to the low pressure in the mountain.

Answer 2
Answer: C.) The low pressure in the mountains

Elevation increases

Answer:

As elevation increases, air pressure decreases, molecules spread out, and air temperature cools.

Explanation:

We spend our lives in visible light without risks to our health. Yet exposure to UV waves in sunlight can cause skin cancer. What is the BEST explanation for this?A) UV waves are longer and carry more energy.
B) UV waves are higher frequency and carry more energy.
C) UV waves have a lower frequency and carry more energy.
D) UV waves travel faster than visible light and have more energy.

Answers

The correct answer is
B) UV waves are higher frequency and carry more energy. 

In fact, UV waves have higher frequency than visible light. For comparison, visible light has frequency in the range 430-770 THz (
10^(12) Hz), while ultraviolets (UV) have frequency higher than these values (at the order of 1 PHz, 1\cdot 10^(15)Hz).

The energy of electromagnetic radiation is proportional to its frequency, according to the equation
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency. We see that the higher the frequency, the greater the energy, so UV waves carry more energy than visible light.
UV waves are higher frequency and carry more energycausing exposure to UV waves in sunlight to skin cancer. This is a type ofelectromagnetic radiation similar to the waves of the radio, infrared, x-raysand gamma. All of which comes from the sun however cannot be seen by a humaneye. People use these rays for tanning however if it is overdone, it may causeskin problems.

A car accelerates uniformly from 5m/s to 15m/s taking 7.5 seconds. How far did it travel during this periodPls help

Answers

Answer:

Given :-

Initial Velocity (u) = 5 m/s

Final Velocity (v) = 15 m/s

Time (t) = 7.5 seconds

To Find :-

Distance (s) = ?

Solution :-

First of all we will find the acceleration of car :

→ Acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity ÷ Time

→ Acceleration = 15 - 5 ÷ 7.5

→ Acceleration = 10 ÷ 7.5

→ Acceleration = 1.3 m/s²

Now, by using Second equation of motion we can find distance travelled by the car :

→ s = ut + ½ at²

→ s = 5 × 7.5 + ½ × 1.3 × (7.5)²

→ s = 37.5 + ½ × 1.3 × 56.25

→ s = 37.5 + 1.3 × 28.125

→ s = 37.5 + 29.425

→ s = 66.925 m

Therefore,the distance travelled by the car is 66.925 m.

The required answer is 66.925 m which is the distance travelled by the car.

An equinox occurs whena. neither end of Earth’s axis is tilted toward or away from the sun.
b. the north end of Earth’s axis is tilted away from the sun.
c. the north end of Earth’s axis is tilted toward the sun.
d. Earth’s axis is parallel to the sun’s rays.

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is Option a.

Explanation:

An equinox is defined as an event that occurs when Sun's rays fall on the equator at noon and at an angle of 90°.

The axis of rotation of Earth must be perpendicular to the Sun's rays for this event to occur.

If the axis is titled to some angle even, then equinox will not occur.

Hence, the correct answer is Option a.

A! Good luck on your test!

A twig from a tree drops from a 200m high cliff on to a beach below.during its fall 40% twig's energy is converted into thermal energy.what is the speed with which the twig hits the beach?

Answers

Calculating for potential energy P.E=mgh
m=mass
g=acceleration due to gravity
h=height
Let the twig's mass be M 

therefore at the start, the twig has 200*9.8*M potential energy. 

During its fall 40% twig's energy is converted into thermal energy and the remaining 60% of this will turn into kinetic energy during the fall, giving us 1176M
Now the equation for kinetic energy, K.E is 0.5*m*v^2
m is mass
v is velocity

Therefore 1176M=0.5*M*v^2 (mass will divide out)
velocity is 
48.49 m/s
