Your answer will be (B) - intense pressure.
We could use the change of pressure to calculate for the height climbed by the mountain hiker. The change of pressure is given by
p = rho * g * h, where p is the change of pressure, rho is the air density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.
Using the conversion 1 mbar = 100 Pa,
(930 - 780)(100) = (1.20)(9.80)h
15000 = 1.20*9.80*h
h = 1.28 km
Answer:
(a) They must have same direction
(b) It is not necessary for them to have same magnitudes
Explanation:
(a)
Momentum is a vector quantity. It is the product of mass (scalar) and velocity (vector). Thus, if the direction of velocity is changed, then as a result the direction of momentum will also change or its magnitude or component in the same direction will change. Hence, for the two objects to have same momentum, the directions of their velocities must also be the same.
(b)
Since, the momentum is product of velocity and mass. It is possible that two bodies of different masses with different velocities might have same momentum, provided the direction of their velocities is same.
For example, take a body of mass 4 kg moving with speed 5 m/s. It will have a momentum of 20 N.s. Now, consider another body of mass 2 kg, moving with speed 10 m/s. It will also have a momentum of 20 N.s.
Thus, it is not necessary for two objects to have same magnitude of velocity to have same momentum.
Answer:
The windward side is that side which faces the prevailing wind (upwind), whereas the leeward, or "lee" side, is the side sheltered from the wind by the mountain's very elevation (downwind)
