Answer: False
Explanation:
Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from. Hence, a wind that <em>"blows towards the east"</em>, logically should <u>come from the west </u>and is called a <em>"west wind"</em>.
In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the <em>Westerlies</em>, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.
Therefore, the statement is false.
Answer:
6 seconds
0.167 Hz
Explanation:
Distance = 4 m
Velocity = 0.75 m/s
Period is given by

The period of the motion is 3 seconds
Frequency is given by

The frequency of the motion is 0.33 Hz
Answer:
0.75
Explanation:
Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.
Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).
So, μ = F/N
= 300 N/400 N
= 3/4
= 0.75
So, the coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75
Answer:
1.dr/dt=0.0096cm/s
2. dA/dt=2.19cm^2/s
Explanation:
A spherical balloon is deflating at 10 cm3/s. At what rate is the radius changing when the volume is 1000π cm3 ? What is the rate of change of surface area at this moment?
for this question, we need to analyze the parameters we know
V=volume of the spherical balloon 1000π cm3
volume of the sphere=
1000π=4/3πr^3
dividing both sides by 4
250*3=r^3
r=9.08cm, the radius of the balloon
dv/dt=dv/dr*dr/dt...................................1
dv/dr ,means
V=
dv/dr=4*pi*r^2
dv/dt=10 cm3/s
from equ 1
10=4*pi*9.08^2*dr/dt
10=1036 dr/dt
dr/dt=10/1036
dr/dt=0.0096cm/s
2. to find the rate at which the area is changing we have,
dA/dt=dA/dr*dr/dt
area of a sphere is 4πr^2
differentiate a with respect to r, radius
dA/dr=8πr
dA/dt=8πr*0.0096
dA/dt=8*pi*9.08*0.0096
dA/dt=2.19cm^2/s
is the rate of change of the surface area
