________ occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.

1 answer:

6 0

The answer would be:
Precipitation sometimes occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
This happens when the air is forced to move from low elevation to high elevation due to rising terrain. This causes the air to cool adiabatically. This increases the relative humidity and causes clouds to form, under certain conditions it can also create precipitation.

A long uniformly charged thread (linear charge density λ= 2.5 C/m) lies along the x axis in the figure.(Figure 1) A small charge

Kamila [148]

Answer 1) The electric field at distance r from the thread is radial and has magnitude

E = λ / (2 π ε° r)

The electric field from the point charge usually is observed to follow coulomb's law:

E = Q / (4 π ε° $r^{2}$ )

Now, adding the two field vectors:

$E_{thread}$ = {2.5 / (22 π ε° X 0.07 ) ; 0}

Answer 2) $E_{q}$ = {2.3 / (4 2 π ε°) ( - 7/ (√(84); -12 / (√84))

Adding these two vectors will give the length which is magnitude of the combined field.

The y-component / x-component gives the tangent of the angle with the positive x-axes.

Please refer the graph and the attachment for better understanding.

blagie [28]

Answer:

vf₁ = 6.86 m/s , to the right

vf₂ = 2.96 m/s, to the right

Explanation:

Theory of collisions

Linear momentum is a vector magnitude (same direction of the velocity) and its magnitude is calculated like this:

p=m*v

where

p:Linear momentum

m: mass

v:velocity

There are 3 cases of collisions : elastic, inelastic and plastic.

For the three cases the total linear momentum quantity is conserved:

P₀ = Pf Formula (1)

P₀ :Initial linear momentum quantity

Pf : Final linear momentum quantity

Data

m₁= 0.220 kg : mass of object₁

m₂= 0.345 kg : mass of object₂

v₀₁ = 2.1 m/s ₁ , to the right : initial velocity of m₁

v₀₂= 6 m/s, to the right i :initial velocity of m₂

Problem development

We appy the formula (1):

P₀ = Pf

m₁*v₀₁ + m₂*v₀₂ = m₁*vf₁ + m₂*vf₂

We assume that the two objects move to the right at the end of the collision, so, the sign of the final speeds is positive:

(0.22)*(2.1) + (0.345)*(6) = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂ Equation (1)

Because the shock is elastic, the coefficient of elastic restitution (e) is equal to 1.

$e= \frac{v_{f2}-v_{f1} }{v_{o1} -v_{o2} }$

1*(v₀₁ - v₀₂ ) = (vf₂ -vf₁)

(2.1 - 6 ) = (vf₂ -vf₁)

-3.9 = (vf₂ -vf₁)

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9 Equation (2)

We replace Equation (2) in the Equation (1)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*( vf₁ - 3.9)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)* (vf₁) -(0.345)( 3.9)

2.532 + 1.3455 = (0.565)*vf₁

3.8775 = (0.565)*vf₁

vf₁ = (3.8775) / (0.565)

vf₁ = 6.86 m/s, to the right

We replace vf₁ = 6.86 m/s in the Equation (2)

vf₂ = 6.86 - 3.9

vf₂ = 2.96 m/s, to the right

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 70.1 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl

lara [203]

Answer:

given,

mass of the skier = 70.1 Kg

angle with horizontal, θ = 8.6°

magnitude of the force,F = ?

a) Applying newton's second law

$m g sin\theta - F_{rope} = ma$

velocity is constant, a = 0

$m g sin\theta - F_{rope} =0$

$F_{rope} = m g sin\theta$

$F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0$

$F_{rope}= 102.73\ N$

b) now, when acceleration, a = 0.135 m/s²

$F_{rope}-m g sin\theta = ma$

velocity is constant, a = 0.135 m/s₂

$F_{rope} = m g sin\theta+ma$

$F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0+70.1\times 0.135$

$F_{rope}= 112.19\ N$
