The correct answer is option D.

Vertical wind shear changes in wind direction with horizontal distance.

Generally, atmospheric wind is referred to as vertical or horizontal wind shear. It is also called wind gradient.

Simply put, win shear is defined as the change in wind speed over a particular distance.

More specifically, vertical wind shear refers to the alter in wind speed along altitude while the horizontal change refers to the change in wind speed that occurs along lateral side or position of the atmosphere in a given altitude.

A meteor moving through outer space continues to move on the same path until an outside force acts on it
Fittoniya [83]

Newton stated 3 laws that rules moving bodies:

First law - an object remains in its state (resting or moving at constant speed) unless acted upon a force

Second law - the force (F) of an object is equal to its mass (m) multiplied by its acceleration (a); F = m x a

Third law - when an object exerts a force upon another, the second object exerts a force that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction

So, according to the First Law of Motion, the metor moving through outer space will continues its motion until an outside force acts upon it

How much water remains unfrozen after 62.2 kJ is transferred as heat from 364 g of liquid water initially at its freezing point?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

177.213 grams

Explanation:

Given:

Total amount of water = 364 grams

Latent heat of fusion = 333 kJ/kg

Heat transferred = 62.2 kJ

The amount of water frozen = 62.2/333 = 0.186786 kg =  186.786 grams

Hence, the amount of water remained unfrozen = Total water - Amount of water frozen

the amount of water remained unfrozen = 364 grams - 186.786 grams = 177.213 grams

How is high temperature achieved by concave mirror?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

A concave mirror is used in the design of solar furnaces because they converge the parallel sunrays at a point. This helps to increase the temperature of the furnace.
