Explain why the elements nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen are often found in both the Earth's atmosphere and crust.

1 answer:

7 0

The Earth's atmosphere that we know today originated millions of years ago when volcanic activity released materials from the Earth's crust. These were mainly: H2O, CO2, N2, and sulfates. Through the passage of time and adjustments in the atmosphere, a lot of CO2 was converted by plants and algae into oxygen, while N2 remained because it is inert.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The stunt will likely sustain serious injury in case of concrete blocks because the average force acting on the person will be more because concrete blocks do not squeeze to provide more time for the force to act on the body instead it acts for a small amount of interval.

$Impulse=F_{avg}\times \Delta T$

As impulse is constant so time requires to act force on the body is more as compared to concrete block and thus average force in mattress case is less.

Atmosphere

Atmospheric gas from prehistoric eras is found trapped in glaciers in the form of bubbles. These gas bubbles are the basis of studying ice cores as they provide us with accurate estimates of the conditions of past climates. The bubbles allow us to determine the composition of atmospheric air, such as the carbon dioxide and methane concentrations, as well as allow us to determine air temperatures in the past.

A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?

inna [77]

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s
