Answer:
A. The upward pressure gradient force is balanced by gravity.
Explanation:
A. is correct because the pressure difference is actually generated by gravity. As in the following formula for the pressure at different points:
where are the pressure at 2 points, ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the gravitational constant, and h is the height difference.
B is incorrect because friction in air is too small to make an effect.
C is incorrect because the Coriolis force is horizontal, not vertical.
D is incorrect because a difference of 500 hPa = 50000 Pa, this is half of the atmospheric pressure.
E is incorrect because temperature cannot generate force.
Answer:
17.66 kPa
Explanation:
The volume of water in the swimming pool is the product of its dimensions
V = 30 * 8.7 * 1.8 = 469.8 cubic meters
Let water density , and g = 9.81 m/s2 we can calculate the total weight of water in the swimming pool
The area of the bottom
A = 30 * 8.7 = 261 square meters
Therefore the pressure is its force over unit area
or 17.66 kPa

Answer and Explanation:
with reference to Einstein's theory of special relativity, the speed of an electromagnetic radiation, here, laser will not change in any inertial frame or remains same irrespective of any change in inertial frame.
Therefore, the speed of light measured in both the cases, i.e., in astronaut's reference frame and spaceship's reference frame will be equal to the speed of light in vacuum, i.e., .
The laser gun's speed in astronaut's reference frame is the same as the speed of the spaceship as it mounted on it, i.e., the speed of the laser gun is 200 million m/s.
The laser gun's speed measured in spaceship's reference frame will be zero, as it is mounted on the spaceship and is stationary in the spaceship's reference frame.
Answer:
Air and ice
Explanation:
convection, process by which heat is transferred by movement of a heated fluid such as air or water.
Everyday Examples of Convection:
radiator - A radiator puts warm air out at the top and draws in cooler air at the bottom.
steaming cup of hot tea - The steam you see when drinking a cup of hot tea indicates that heat is being transferred into the air.
ice melting - Ice melts because heat moves to the ice from the air.
