zloy xaker [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

g=9.64m/s^2.

Explanation:

Gravitational field strength (in other words, gravitational acceleration) is given as follows:g=GMR2g=R2GM​where G=6.674×10−11m3kg⋅s2G=6.674×10−11kg⋅s2m3​ is the gravitational constant, M=5.972×1024kgM=5.972×1024kg is the mass of the Earth, and R=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106mR=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the required point above the surface (radius plus 60 km).

Winds are deflected to the (right/left) ___ as they move into a low pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere.
SashulF [63]

Winds are deflected to the right as they move into a low pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Winds decide the motion of ocean currents which forms the surface waves in the Earth's atmosphere to maintain the pressure region. The motion of ocean currents is based on Coriolis force which states the direction of motion of an object in a rotating system.

In the case of Earth, the Coriolis force has an effect on the ocean currents which are deflected from maximum to minimum pressure region in a curved path. So the winds formed by the ocean currents will generally get deflected at the right as they move into a low pressure area at the Northern Hemisphere from the high pressure region.

A particular star cluster contains stars all with the same apparent magnitude of +4. Near the cluster (and at the same distance
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

3,000 stars.

Explanation:

Subtract the magnitude of the single star from the magnitude of the star cluster.

(+4) - (+1) = +3

Then multiply your answer by 1000

= 3,000 is a stars.

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.
