Winds blow from 30° latitude in both hemispheres almost to the equator as trade winds. <u>Option C.</u>

<u />

This phenomenon is called the Coriolis effect and is the reason why trade winds blow westward in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Trade winds are found about 30 degrees north and south of the equator. Trade winds can be defined as winds blowing north from the northeast toward the equator.

From the southeast hemisphere or southern hemisphere. Also known as the tropical easterly wind it is known for its consistent strength and direction. The driving force of atmospheric circulation is the energy of the sun, which heats the atmosphere to varying degrees at the equator. All this motion is driven by sunlight which is absorbed and re-radiated by the Earth's surface and rotation.

Which object moves in simple harmonic motion?\
Rina8888 [55]
<h2>Answer:Stretched rubber band with an mass</h2>

Explanation:

Simple harmonic motion requires a restoring force.

Simple harmonic motion should be periodic.

Option A:

When a rubber band is stretched,the internal forces of the rubber band pulls the band inside.So,internal forces are the restoring forces in a rubber band.

The motion is periodic as well since the the rubber band makes to an fro motion expanding ans contracting.

So,this performs SHM.

Option B:

There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

So,this is not SHM.

Option C:

There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

So,this is not SHM.

Option D:

There is periodicity but no restoring force.

So,this is not SHM.

In a physics lab, a 60-kg student runs up a 2.0-meter tall flight of stairs in 1.5 seconds. The work done to get to the top is 1
tester [92]
<span>The student's power rating is approximately 800W.
</span>
Power is the rate of doing work. Its SI unit is Watt. 1 W = 1J/sec

Given: <span>The work done to get to the top is 1200 Joules
</span>
Time = 1.5 seconds.

Power = \frac{work done}{time} &#10;=  \frac{1200J}{1.5 sec} &#10;= 800J/sec &#10;= 800W
