Assume this is 22 degrees from the horizontal (x).
A vector can always be split into components - in this case we can think of the world in two dimensions, meaning the 72ms-1 has a vertical and a horizontal component. We therefore know the hypotenuse of the triangle (the overall velocity) and the angle from the ground. Hence we can use trigonometry to solve this problem.

We know x and the hypotenuse, and we want to know the magnitude of the adjacent side (horizontal), therefore we can use cosx=adj/hyp

Substituting:

Cos(22) = adj/72
Adj = 72cos22 = 66.8ms-1 = 67ms-1 to 2sf

How does the Coriolis effect influence the direction of the Trade Winds in the Northern Hemisphere? Does it have the same effect
scoray [572]

Answer:

Part A

Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects

Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east

Part B

In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere

If pressure is increased from 200 kPa to 300 kPa, and the original volume of gas was 1.5 L, what is the new volume? Assume the t
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:      V2 = 1 l

Explanation:

Data

P1 = 200 kPa

P2 = 300 kPa

V1 = 1.5 l

V2 = ?

Formula

                          P1V1 = P2V2

                          V2 = (P1V1) / P2

                          V2 = (200 x 1.5) / 300

                          V2 = 1 l
