What causes clouds to form on the upwind side of mountain ranges

1 answer:

8 0

I believe it’s because of the air from the lower part of the mountain adjusting to the climate at the top. Mountains cause air to rise, and when that air rises it cools down creating the clouds.

Hope I helped!

A baseball thrown by a pitcher is hit by a batter. At the moment when the ball hits the bat, the force exerted on the bat by the

Slav-nsk [51]

Newton's Laws of motion describe the motion of an object based on the applied force

The correct option that gives the relationships between the forces is the the option;

$\underline{F_{ball}}$ on bat = $\underline{F_{bat}}$ on ball

(Either option A or B without the minus symbol before $F_{bat}$ , likely typographical error)

Reason:

Force exerted on the bat by the ball = $F_{ball}$

Force exerted on the ball by the bat = $F_{bat}$

Given that the batter hits the ball with the bat, the force exerted by the bat on the ball, $F_{bat}$ , is reacted to by the force of the ball acting on the bat, $F_{ball}$

According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. Therefore, at the moment when the ball hits the bat, we have;

$\underline{F_{ball}}$ on bat = $\underline{F_{bat}}$ on ball

Where the force of the bat is high, the ball is accelerated to travel at high speed

Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across a 26-V battery, which supplies them with a total power of 7.1 W. While

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A) R = 190.42 Ω

B) P = 5.325 W

Explanation:

We are given;

Total power;P_tot = 7.1 W

Voltage;V = 26 V

A)We are told that while the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated, so that its resistance doubles.

Thus, the power is doubled.

Now, formula for power is;

P = IV

Thus, since power is doubled, we have;

P = 2(IV)

Now, formula for current is; I = V/R

So, P = 2V²/R

Making R the subject, we have;

R = 2V²/P

In this question, P is p_total = 7.1 W

Thus;

R = (2 × 26²)/7.1

R = 190.42 Ω

B) Now, the resistance of the resistors are R and 2R.

Formula for power in this context is;

P = V²/R

Thus,

Total power delivered to the resistors is;

P = V²/R + V²/2R

P = 3V²/2R

P = (3 × 26²)/(2 × 190.42)

P = 5.325 W
