It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

Astronauts land on another planet and measure the density of the atmosphere on the planet surface. They measure the mass of a 50
Lana71 [14]

1.6 kg/m^3 is the best estimate of the density of the air on the planet.

Given:

The mass of the conical flask with stopper is 457.23 grams and the volume is 500cm^3.

Mass of conical flask and a stopper after removing the air is 456.43 g

To find:

The density of the air on the planet.

Solution;

Mass of the conical flask and stopper with air on the planet= 457.23 g

Mass of conical flask with a stopper and without air on the planet =  456.43 g

Mass of the air in the conical flask on the planet =m

m = 457.23 g-456.43 g=0.8 g\\\\1 g = 0.001 kg\\\\m =0.8 g =0.8\times 0.001 kg=0.0008 kg

The volume of the conical flask = 500 cm^3

The volume of the air in the conical flask = V = 500cm^3

1 cm^3=10^{-6} m^3\\\\V= 500cm^3= 500\times 10^{-6}m^3=0.0005 m^3

The density of the air on the planet = d

d=\frac{m}{V}\\\\d=\frac{0.0008 kg}{0.0005 m^3}\\\\=1.6 kg/m^3

1.6 kg/m^3 is the best estimate of the density of the air on the planet.

Explain why it is dangerous to jump from a fast moving train
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

When you jump off a train, you jump off a certain height and your downwards (vertical) velocity is zero. But your forward (horizontal) velocity is not. You will hit the ground on split second with your horizontal velocity practically the same as the train.

Explanation:

you be in serious injury.

A 1.0 kg block is attached to an unstretched
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = 1 Nm.

Explanation:

Here, spring constant, k  = 50 N/m.

given block comes down eventually 0.2 m below.

here, g = 10 m/s.

let block be at a height h above the ground in figure 1.

⇒In figure 2, potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system = m×g×(h - 0.2) + 1/2× k × x². where, x = change in spring length.

⇒ Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = (m×g×(h - 0.2)) - (1/2× k × x²)

              =  (1×10×0.2) - (1/2×50×0.2×0.2) = 1 Nm.
