How does the atmospheric pressure at altitudes above sea level compare with atmospheric pressure at sea level?
A. The atmospheric pressure above sea level is higher.
B. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is higher.
c. The pressures are the same.
D. Differences in pressures cannot be determined.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B

The atmospheric pressure at sea level is higher.

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure can simply be understood as the weight of the air molecules in the atmosphere. The higher we go up into the atmosphere, the thinner the air becomes. This means that the air present at higher heights is not so much, and hence, the air is lighter. This is why most fighter jets and mountain climbers need oxygen tanks to breathe properly.

Due to the fact that the air is less dense (lighter) at higher altitudes, it also means that the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is less.

Therefore, the atmospheric pressure at the sea level is higher than the atmospheric pressure at  altitudes above sea level

Answer 2

Answer:

B. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is higher.

What us the % composition of oxygen (O) in iron (III) hydroxide, Fe(OH)
3?

Answers

Answer:

44.91% of Oxygen in Iron (III) hydroxide

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of Fe(OH)3 and the molar mass of the oxygen in this molecule. Percent composition will be:

Molar mass Oxygen / molar mass Fe(OH)3 * 100

Molar mass Fe(OH)3 and oxygen:

1Fe = 55.845g/mol*1 = 55.845

3O = 16.00g/mol*3 = 48.00 - Molar mass of Oxygen

3H = 1.008g/mol*3 = 3.024

55.845 + 48.00 + 3.024 =

106.869g/mol is molar mass of Fe(OH)3

% Composition of oxygen is:

48.00g/mol / 106.869g/mol * 100 =

44.91% of Oxygen in Iron (III) hydroxide

What is the definition of a commission? * 4 points Earnings based on how much they sell What you are paid to work. When you are paid to work on a mission as a coworker.

Answers

Answer:

Earnings based on how much they sell

Explanation:

A sales presentation can be defined as series of talk given by a salesperson with the attempt to persuade someone or a potential customer to buy a particular product, by giving information it. Some salespersons resort to the use of dramatics so as to initiate and close the sale of a particular product by engaging in series of theatrical actions.

In sales and marketing, the term closing with respect to a sales can be defined as the process of making a business sale successful such as through the exchange of money for a particular product or goods.

For a salesperson to be able to close a sales, he or she require abilities such as courage, negotiation skills, listening ears and interpersonal skills to do so or achieve a successful sales. After a successful sales, they're entitled to a percentage of the amount made from selling a particular product or closing a deal based on what is stated in the contract. These amount of money earned with respect to each sales is generally referred to as commissions.

Commission can be defined as an amount of money earned based on how much a salesperson sell.

PLZ HELP NOW

Answers

Answer:

10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)

Explanation:

All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt

which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k

A = final weight = 1.0 gram

A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams

k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹

t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)

what are the moon phases. but be more detailed and don't put in "the phases of the moon" be more detailed.

Answers

Explanation:

The lunar phase or Moon phase is the shape of the Moon's directly sunlit portion as viewed from Earth. The lunar phases gradually change over a synodic month as the Moon's orbital positions around Earth and Earth around the Sun shift.

as the moon orbits or circles the Earth, the phase changes. We'll start with what is called the New Moon phase. This is where we can't see any of the lit up side of the moon. The moon is between us and the sun (see the picture). As the moon orbits the Earth we can see more and more of the lit up side until finally the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun and we get a full moon. As the moon continues to orbit the Earth we now see less and less of the lit up side. The phases of the moon starting with the New Moon are: New Moon Waxing Crescent First Quarter Waxing Gibbous Full Waning Gibbous Third Quarter Waning Crescent Dark Moon.

If nitrogen at 130 kPa is allowed to expand at constant temperature until its pressure is 145.5 kPa, how much larger will the volume become?

Answers

Answer:

0.89 times

Explanation:

Let the initial volume of the tank be V.

Finally, we shall determine how much larger the final volume of the gas will be. This is illustrated below:

Initial pressure (P₁) = 130 kPa

Initial volume (V₁) = V

Final pressure (P₂) = 145.5 kPa

Final volume (V₂) =?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

130 × V = 145.5 × V₂

130V = 145.5 × V₂

Divide both side by 145.5

V₂ = 130V / 145.5

V₂ = 0.89V

Therefore, the final volume of gas will be 0.89 times the initial volume.

Which best describes the velocity of a person on a merry-go-round? * 1 point zero constant increasing continuously changing​

Answers

Answer:

continuously changing

Explanation:

The velocity of a person on a merry-go-round can best be described as continuously changing. This is because the initial velocity before the ride starts would be 0. Once the ride begins, it keeps going faster and faster until it reaches a certain speed. During this time the velocity is increasing. Then it remains constant for a certain period of time and when the ride is over the velocity and speed begins to decrease until ultimately reaching a speed of 0. Therefore, it is continuously changing throughout the duration of the ride.
