Explain what was ultimately responsible for London’s “killer fog” in 1952.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

possible answer from edge

Explanation:

After World War II the only coal available to burn residentially, either for cooking or warmth, was of poor quality and contained large amounts of contaminants that made its fumes toxic. So when millions of homes in London burned this low quality coal and the local atmosphere over and around London stagnated, there was nowhere for the fumes to go. This stagnation allowed the toxic coal fumes to build up until they became physically harmful to humans and animals.

Answer 2

Burning of low quality coal was ultimately responsible for London’s “killer fog” in 1952.

What is Coal?

This is a type of sedimentary rock which is combustible and contain high amounts of carbon and hydrocarbon.

The low quality coal contained a lot of contaminants which was released into the atmosphere thereby creating the “killer fog” which adversely affected residents.

As volume increases, pressure_______________________?
Easy points

Answers

Decreases I’m pretty sure

Answer:

•Each time they collide with the walls they exert a force on them. More collisions mean more force, so the pressure will increase. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

Boyle’s law

Decreasing the volume of a gas increases the pressure of the gas. An example of this is when a gas is trapped in a cylinder by a piston. If the piston is pushed in, the gas particles will have less room to move as the volume the gas occupies has been decreased.

A piston closes the end of a cylinder with some gas molecules inside. The pressure applied to the piston is doubled and the volume inside the cylinder halfs.

As the pressure applied to a piston is doubled, the volume inside a cylinder is halved

Because the volume has decreased, the particles will collide more frequently with the walls of the container. Each time they collide with the walls they exert a force on them. More collisions mean more force, so the pressure will increase.

When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

This is shown by the following equation - which is often called Boyle’s law. It is named after 17th century scientist Robert Boyle.

P1V1 = P2V2

where:

P1 is the initial pressure

V1 is the initial volume

P2 is the final pressure

V2 is the final volume

It can also be written as:

pressure1 × volume1 = pressure2 × volume2

Note that volume is measured in metres cubed (m3) and temperature in kelvin (K).

It means that for a gas at a constant temperature, pressure × volume is also constant. So increasing pressure from pressure1 to pressure2 means that volume1 will change to volume2, providing the temperature remains constant.

1. Deshaun Watson (100 kg) accelerates from rest to 9.0 m/s in 1.5 s. What is the average power
output of Deshaun in kW? (2 mark)

Answers

Answer:

P = 5400[W]

Explanation:

We must use the following equation of kinematics to calculate the acceleration.

[tex]v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 9 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0 (starting from rest)

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 1.5 [s]

[tex]9=0+a*1.5\\a=9/1.5\\a=6[m/s^{2} ][/tex]

Now with this second equation of kinematics, we can determine the distance traveled.

[tex]v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x[/tex]

where:

x= distance [m]

[tex]9^{2} = 0 +2*6*x\\12*x=81\\x=6.75[m][/tex]

Now we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

Now replacing:

[tex]F=100*6\\F=600[N][/tex]

Ahora la potencia se puede calcular por medio del producto de la fuerza por velocidad.

[tex]P=F*v[/tex]

where:

P = power [W]

F = force = 600 [N]

v = velocity = 9 [m/s]

[tex]P=9*600\\P=5400[W][/tex]

When is the net force on the car closest to 0?

Answers

Answer:    The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object. When an object is in equilibrium (either at rest or moving with constant velocity), the net force acting on it zero. A vector can only have zero magnitude if all of its components are zero.  there is more than one force acting on an object, then F is the net force. If two people pull on an object with equal forces in opposite directions, then the net force is zero and the acceleration is zero

You toss a ball straight upward, in a positive direction. The ball falls freely under the influence of gravity. At the highest point in the ball's motion.


A.) its velocity is zero and its acceleration is positive (upward).

B.) its velocity is zero and its acceleration is negative (downward).

C.) its velocity is positive (upward) and its acceleration is zero.

D.) its velocity is zero and its acceleration is zero.

Answers

Answer:

B.) its velocity is zero and its acceleration is negative (downward).

Explanation:

When the ball is thrown upwards in the air, the ball starts with its velocity being high and positive upwards against the force of gravity. Due to force of gravity pulling the object to the center of the earth, its velocity decreases as it reaches the maximum height where the velocity is instantaneously zero. At this maximum height its acceleration is -9.81 m/s².

At the highest point in the ball's motion,  its velocity is zero and its acceleration is negative (downward).

All objects within the earth's gravitational field are affected by the force of gravity. Gravity is the reason why objects fall to the ground when they are thrown upwards.

If you toss a ball upward, the ball will fall freely under the influence of gravity. At the highest point in the ball's motion,  its velocity is zero and its acceleration is negative (downward).

Billiard ball A (0.35 kg) is struck such that it moves at 10 m/s toward a second identical ball (Ball B) initially at rest. After the collision, Ball A continues to move in the same direction at 2 m/s. What is the magnitude of the velocity for Ball B after the collision?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply law of conservation of momentum during the collision of ball A and B .

Total momentum before collision of A and B = .35 x 10 = 3.5 kg m/s

Let the velocity of B after collision be v .

Total momentum after collision  = .35 x 2 + .35v

According to law of conservation of momentum

.35 x 2 + .35v  = 3.5

.35 v = 2.8

v = 8 m /s .

The direction of B will be same as direction of A .
