Because of the Coriolis effect, surface ocean currents are deflected to the ________ of their path of motion in the Northern Hem
Mila [183]

Answer:

Right

Explanation:

Because of the Coriolis effect, surface ocean currents are deflected to the Right of their path of motion in the Northern Hemisphere.

Since the Earth is revolving on its axis, flowing air in the Northern Hemisphere are deflected to the right and in the Southern Hemisphere to the left. The consequence of Coriolis is called this deflection.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

What part of the light wave is related to the brightness of the light?

Amplitude

The amplitude of a wave tells us about the intensity or brightness of the light relative to other light waves of the same wavelength

The brightness of light is related to intensity or the amount of light an object emits or reflects. Brightness depends on light wave amplitude, the height of light waves. Brightness is also somewhat influenced by wavelength.

A student must design an experiment to determine the gravitational mass of an object. Which of the following experiments could t
Elena L [17]

Answer: a. Place the object on one side of a lever at a known distance away from the fulcrum. Place known masses on the other side of the fulcrum so that they are also paced on the lever at known distance from the fulcrum. Move the known masses to a known distance such that the lever is in static equilibrium.

d. Place the object on the end of a vertically hanging spring with a known spring constant. Allow the spring to stretch to a new equilibrium position and measure the distance the spring is stretched from its original equilibrium position.

Explanation:

The options are:

a. Place the object on one side of a lever at a known distance away from the fulcrum. Place known masses on the other side of the fulcrum so that they are also paced on the lever at known distance from the fulcrum. Move the known masses to a known distance such that the lever is in static equilibrium.

b. Place the object on a surface of negligible friction and pull the object horizontally across the surface with a spring scale at a non constant speed such that a motion detector can measure how the objects speed as a function of time changes.

c. Place the object on a surface that provides friction between the object and the surface. Use a surface such that the coefficient of friction between the object and the surface is known. Pull the object horizontally across the surface with a spring scale at a nonconstant speed such that a motion detector can measure how the objects speed as a function of time changes.

d. Place the object on the end of a vertically hanging spring with a known spring constant. Allow the spring to stretch to a new equilibrium position and measure the distance the spring is stretched from its original equilibrium position.

Gravitational mass simply has to do with how the body responds to the force of gravity. From the options given, the correct options are A and D.

For option A, by balancing the torque, the mass can be calculated. Since the known mass and the distance has been given here, the unknown mass can be calculated.

For option D, here the gravitational force can be balanced by the spring force and hence the mass can be calculated.
