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.

The weight of an object is the force generated by Earth's gravity accelerating the object's _________. distance mass time destin
julsineya [31]
The weight of an object is the force of gravity between Earth's
mass and the object's mass.

The forces of gravity always come in equal, opposite pairs. 
The Earth's weight on the object is the same as the object's
weight on the Earth, and when the object falls to Earth, Earth
falls to the object.

1. A baseball is thrown vertically at 16.7 m/s. What is the maimum height of the baseball?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m

A harmonic wave on a string with a mass per unit length of 0.050 kg/m and a tension of 60 N has an amplitude of 5.0 cm. Each sec
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Power of the string wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass per unit length is 0.050 kg/m

Tension in the string T = 60 N

Amplitude of the wave A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Frequency f = 8 Hz

So angular frequency \omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 8=50.24rad/sec

Velocity of the string wave is equal to v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}=\sqrt{\frac{60}{0.050}}=34.641m/sec

Power of wave propagation is equal to P=\frac{1}{2}\mu \omega ^2vA^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.050\times 50.24^2\times 34.641\times 0.05^2=5.464watt

So power of the wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

When a cannon fires a cannonball, the cannon will recoil backward because the:
gulaghasi [49]

C) total linear momentum of the ball and cannon is conserved.

Basically it happens that in the beginning before there is a momentum acting on the two bodies, these are a unique system. Here the total momentum of the System is 0. However, when the positive momentum of the cannonball is added, the system will be immediately affected by a negative momentum which will pull back the cannon. Could this be extrapolated as a condition of Newton's third law.
