Wind blows from what pressure to what pressure

Physics

viva [34]3 years ago

This is called the coriolis effect. So in the northern hemisphere, winds blow clockwise around an area of high pressure and counter-clockwise around low pressure. Not only do differences in air pressure help determine wind speed and direction, they help forecast precipitation and clear weather.

From the top of a cliff, a person tosses a pebble straight downward with an initial velocity of -9.0 meters/second. After 0.50 s
Irina-Kira [14]
Y - yo = Vo*t - g * (t^2) / 2

Vo = - 9.0 m/s
t = 0.50 s

=> y - yo = -9.0 m/s * 0.5 s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (0.5s)^2 / 2 = - 4.5m - 1.225m = - 5.725 m.

A small sculpture made of brass (rho brass = 8470 kg/m 3 ) is believed to have a secret central cavity. The weight of the sculpt
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Volume of secret cavity = 4 x 10⁻⁶m³

Explanation:

The weight of the sculpture in air is 15.76 N

Mass of the sculpture = 1.61 kg

Mass = Volume x Density

1.61 = V x 8470

Volume of brass =1.90 x 10⁻⁴ m³

When it is submerged in water, the weight is 13.86 N.

That is

  Weight of sculpture - Weight of water displaced = 13.86 N

  15.76 - Weight of water displaced = 13.86

   Weight of water displaced = 1.9 N

   Mass of water displaced = 0.194 kg

 Mass = Volume x Density

  0.194 = V x 1000

  Volume of water displaced =1.94 x 10⁻⁴ m³

Volume of secret cavity =  Volume of water displaced - Volume of brass material

Volume of secret cavity = 1.94 x 10⁻⁴-1.94 x 10⁻⁴ = 0.04x 10⁻⁴ = 4 x 10⁻⁶m³

In order to make a ramp that is 3ft high and covers4ft of ground how long must the ramp be
Murljashka [212]
This seems like a right angle triangle situation
the height is 3ft
the base is 4ft
so we're looking for the hypothenus
so we can use the Pythagoras Theorem
which is
the square of the hypothenus is equal to the sum of the square of the two other sides
hyp^2 is equal to opp^2+ adj^2
hyp^2 equals to 3^2 + 4^2
9+16
25
hyp^2 equals to 25
\sqrt{25}
equals to 5
the ramp has to be 5ft long
