Which has greater linear speed the horse near the outside rail of a merry go round or a horse near the inside rail?
the outside horse
What is special about the angler fishes body that it can withstand so much pressure?
There is a lot of pressure on the outside of the body, but the same amount of pressure inside the body. Angler Fish have also eveolved with very tough organs. Answer By Awesomeluke53
How do they stick on the wall?
A Plant SuckerA smooth surface is not entirely smooth. It has small grooves that can be grabbed by a plant stem (or the feet of small insects).A LollipopThe moistened sugar adheres to the surface.A Suction CupThe cup is compressed, and tries to expand back to its original shape. However, the flexing of the cup creates a partial vacuum under the cup, and the air is unable to pass between the smooth contact area. So the air pressure outside keeps the cup against the wall. (Moistening the rubber of the cup will provide a better seal.)
Do the zippers of half chaps go inside your leg or outside?
Outside
Can dogs live outside?
Yes dogs can live outside. But bigger dogs are best for living outside. Smaller dogs like yorkies or poodles should not be left outside especially at night. They are too small to live outside and they don't have that kind of fur. Hope this Helped! :)
When the air pressure in the lungs is greater than the air pressure outside the body you?
at higher altitudes the pressure of air is greater in our lungs as compare to the air pressure outside the body
Is the pressure of a balloon greater on the inside or outside?
It's greater on the outside until it rises to a point in the atmosphere where the air is very thing. At that point, the pressure inside the balloon is greater which causes it to pop.
Is the pressure greater on the inside or outside of the plane?
the pressure is high out side the plane because the air moves around quickly.
What prevents mercury in the tube of a barometer from running out into the container at the bottom of the tube?
The top of a barometric tube is sealed leaving no place for air to escape. It works along the same principle as a drinking straw, but in reverse. In a drinking straw, the sucking motion reduces the pressure of the air inside the straw to a lower level than the air outside the straw. Liquid resists changes in volume due to pressure and is drawn up through the tube due to the air pressure exerted on the surface of the liquid outside the straw. In a barometric tube the tube is sealed at one end, trapping a finite amount of gas in the tube. The air pressure inside and outside the tube is equal, keeping the mercury suspended at a certain level. If the pressure outside is raised, more force is exerted on the surface of the mercury outside the tube than on the surface inside. This raises the level of the mercury in the tube until the pressure of the air is equalized -- there is still just as much air in the tube, but a smaller volume at a greater pressure.
Is the air pressure in a flying airplane greater that outside the flying airplane?
In a commercial airliner flying at cruising altitude, the air pressure inside the airplane is considerably higher than the air pressure outside. The air pressure outside is too low for people to breathe comfortably, so the interior is pressurized.
Will humans explode if they go too far underwater?
No, because the pressure pushing in from the outside would be far greater than the pressure pushing out. If anything, they would implode.
Why does air rush out of a hole in a balloon?
The pressure inside is greater than outside, or else the balloon would not blown up.
What is the freon pressure for an air conditioner?
It changes based on vehicle, outside temp, and desired inside temp. Pressuse depends on ambient temperature, the higher the temp, the greater the pressure
Why did the water rush into the erlenmeyer flask when it was submerged in the cold water?
1. When the flask was placed into the cold water, the colder air molecules in the flask move slower, putting out less pressure. With the decrease in air pressure inside the flask, the now greater pressure outside pushes water into the flask until the pressure inside equals the pressure outside.
Sweets are given to the passangers before the plane takes off the ground?
Basically, when the plane takes off, you gain altitude very quickly. This gain in altitude causes a decrease in pressure because the weight of the atmosphere above you decreases. The inner ear is highly sensitive to pressure changes and when the pressure around you drops, the pressure being exerted from the inside of your ears will be greater than that around you causing your ear drums to 'pop'. The action of swallowing and sucking on the sweet will constantly force your ear drums open so that you will constantly equalize the pressure inside and outside your ear.
What is the difference between in the ground and on the ground?
In simplest terms, an above ground pool is built the handle the water pressure exerted from the inside but not the pressure of the ground around the outside. It takes the special structure of a pool built for burial in order for it to not collapse when placing it into the ground and backfilling.
Can vessels burst in a vacuum?
Yes. Since the pressure inside the body is greater than the pressure outside, vessels can rupture under these conditions (just as would be the case in outer space).
