How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?

Physics

HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
7 0
They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

What have psychologists learned about perception from optical illusions ?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

That an optical illusion somehow interferes with the way we see things. Even simple illusions can completely fool us. If you search out the term, you'll see all kinds of them.

Most critically we see one thing and know another to be true. But knowing the truth doesn't help us. We still see and believe the truth of the illusion.

Estimate the final temperature of a mole of gas at 200.0 atm and 19.0°C as it is forced through a porous plug to a final pressur
Yanka [14]

Answer : The final temperature of gas is 266.12 K

Explanation :

According to the Joule-Thomson experiment, it states that when a gas is expanded adiabatically from higher pressure region to lower pressure region, the change in temperature with respect to change in pressure at constant enthalpy is known as Joule-Thomson coefficient.

The formula will be:

\mu_{J,T}=(\frac{dT}{dP})_H

or,

\mu_{J,T}=(\frac{dT}{dP})_H\approx \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta P}

As per question the formula will be:

\mu_{J,T}=\frac{T_2-T_1}{P_2-P_1}   .........(1)

where,

\mu_{J,T} = Joule-Thomson coefficient of the gas = 0.13K/atm

T_1 = initial temperature = 19.0^oC=273+19.0=292.0K

T_2 = final temperature = ?

P_1 = initial pressure = 200.0 atm

P_2 = final pressure = 0.95 atm

Now put all the given values in the above equation 1, we get:

0.13K/atm=\frac{T_2-292.0K}{(0.95-200.0)atm}

T_2=266.12K

Therefore, the final temperature of gas is 266.12 K

How fast is a ball rolling if it contains 98 j of kinetic energy and has a mass of 4kg
zysi [14]

Answer:

the ball is rolling 7m/s

Explanation:

Formula for kinetic energy: 1/2mv²

K = 1/2mv²

98 = 1/2(4)v²

98 = 2v²

49 = v²

√49 = v

7 = v
