A stable air mass is most likely to have POOR SURFACE VISIBILITY.
Stable air mass refers to those air mass that have marked stability in their lower layers. The characteristics of stable air mass include the following: cloud cover, smooth air, uninterrupted precipitation and low visibility.<span />

A boy throws a 15 kg ball at 4.7 m/s to a 65 kg girl who is stationary and standing on a skateboard. After catching the ball, th
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)v_{f}=0.88m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Momentum's conservation Law, before and after the girl catch the ball:

\\ p_{1}=p_{2}\\m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}+m_{girl}*v_{o.girl} = m_{ball}*v_{f.ball} + m_{girl}*v_{f.girl}        (1)

At the beginning the girl is  stationary:

v_{o.girl}=0m/s       (2)

If the girl catch the ball, both have the same speed:

v_{f.girl}=v_{f.ball}=v_{f}       (3)

We replace (2) and (3) in (1):

m_{ball}*v_{o.ball} = (m_{ball}+m_{girl})*v_{f} \\

We can now solve the equation for v_{f}:

v_{f}=\frac{m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}}{(m_{ball}+m_{girl})}=\frac{15*4.7}{15+65}=0.88m/s

The NASA spacecraft Deep Space I was shut down on December 18, 2001, following a three-year journey to the asteroid Braille and
Basile [38]

Answer:

The mass will be "8.86 lb".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force

= 70,000 mi/h

Speed

= 7900 mi/h

On applying the Law of momentum, we get

⇒  V_{1}m_{1}=V_{2}m_{2}

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  70000 = 7900\times mass \ of \ deepspace \ 1

⇒  mass \ of \ deepspace \ 1 = \frac{70000}{7900}

⇒                                    =8.86 \ lb

According to a rule-of-thumb. every five seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the f
Bond [772]

Answer:

S_{s}=300 m/s

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.

Explanation:

In order to use the rule of thumb to find the speed of sound in meters per second, we need to use some conversion ratios. We know there is 1 mile per every 5 seconds after the lightning is seen. We also know that there are 5280ft in 1 mile and we also know that there are 0.3048m in 1ft. This is enough information to solve this problem. We set our conversion ratios like this:

\frac{1mi}{5s}*\frac{5280ft}{1mi}*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}=321.87m/s

notice how the ratios were written in such a way that the units got cancelled when calculating them. Notice that in one ratio the miles were on the numerator of the fraction while on the other they were on the denominator, which allows us to cancel them. The same happened with the feet.

The problem asks us to express the answer to one significant figure so the speed of sound rounds to 300m/s.

For the second part of the problem we need to use conversions again. This time we will write our ratios backwards and take into account that there are 1000m to 1 km, so we get:

\frac{5s}{1mi}*\frac{1mi}{5280ft}*\frac{1ft}{0.3048m}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=3.11s/km

This means that for every 3.11s there will be a distance of 1km from the place where the lightning stroke. Since this is a rule of thumb, we round to the nearest integer for the calculations to be made easily, so the rule goes like this:

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.

In a semiclassical model of the hydrogen atom, the electron orbits the proton at a distance of 0.053 nm. Part A What is the elec
Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Charge on proton,q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

a.We have to find the electric  potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

V=\frac{kq}{r}

Where k=9\times 10^9

V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

V=27.17 V

B.Potential energy of electron,U=\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}

Where

q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=Charge on electron

q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C=Charge on proton

Using the formula

U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J

A hiker caught in a rainstorm absorbs 1.00 L of water in her clothing. If it is windy so that the water evaporates quickly at 20
masya89 [10]

Answer:

(A) Q = 2.26×10⁶J

(B) ΔT = 9°C

(C)

Explanation:

We have been given the mass of the hiker, the volume of water from which we can calculate the mass knowing that the density if water is 1000kg/m³.

Evaporation is a phase change and occurs at a constant temperature. We would use the latent heat of vaporization to calculate the amount of heat evaporated.

We would then equate this to the heat change it brings about in the hiker's body and then calculate the temperature drop.

See the attachment below for full solution.
