Answer:

The calming down of trade winds in the Pacific, which leads to the buildup of warm water

Explanation:

El Niño is the climate condition that occurs when the top part of the Pacific Ocean comes in contact with the atmosphere above it. It causes the water of the Pacific Ocean to become warmer because the trade winds are becoming more calmer.

El Niño is warm stage or period of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation.

The effects of El Niño on the environment includes; flooding,severe drought, break out of fire incidents, heat stress e.t.c

A child threw a stone straight down off a high bridge. The initial velocity of the stone was 15.0 m/s (include units and proper
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The speed of the stone before it hit the river 3.00 sec later. Let v is the velocity at that instant is 45 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that, a child threw a stone straight down off a high bridge.

Initial velocity of the stone, u = 15 m/s

We need to find the speed of the stone before it hit the river 3.00 sec later. Let v is the velocity at that instant. When it come down, it is moving under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion as :

v=u+gt\\\\v=15+10\times 3\\\\v=45\ m/s

So, the speed of the stone before it hit the river 3.00 sec later. Let v is the velocity at that instant is 45 m/s.

Remember to identify all your data, write the equation, and show your work.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

I believe it's 8.09 seconds, but I'm rusty on my physics.

Explanation:

The equation for solving the time it takes for an object to fall is \sqrt{2d/g}

So multiply the distance times 2, and you get 642 meters. Then you divide by gravities acceleration constant, 9.8, and you get 65.51. Finally, \sqrt{65.51}, and you get 8.09 seconds.

I pulled the equation off of wikipedia and I'm unsure if it's the correct one, so hopefully this is correct. :/

A general contractor drives 5 miles to the hardware store in 10 minutes. He shops for needed tools for 30 minutes, then drives t
Alex17521 [72]

Given parameters:

Distance to hardware shop = 5 miles

Time to reach hardware shop = 10 minutes

Time spent at the shop = 30 minutes

Average speed to customer home = 45 mph

Time taken for the travel = 20 minutes

Unknown:

Average speed of the contractor = ?

Solution:

 Average speed is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

   Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time taken}  

     total distance = distance to hardware shop + distance to customer's home

We do not know the distance to customer's home but we have been given the speed and time, so we can find the distance.

  Distance  = speed x time

 Convert the time to hrs and solve;  

                       60 minutes  = 1 hr

                       20 minutes  = \frac{20}{60} hr  = \frac{1}{3} hr

So, Distance  = 45mph x \frac{1}{3} hr   = 15miles

Now;

   Total distance  = 5 + 15 = 20miles

Total time = time to reach hardware shop + time to reach customer's house

                  = 10 + 20

                  = 30 minutes

Convert the time from minutes to hrs;

                 60 minutes  = 1hr

                 30 minutes  = \frac{30}{60}   = 0.5hr

So;

    Average speed  = \frac{20}{0.5} = 40mph

The average speed is 40mph

Joule’s law is a linear relationship, that is, the more heat you provide, the greater the temperature change. However, in the pr
Nitella [24]

Answer:

hydrogen bridge

Explanation:

Joule's relationship to heat and temperature is true for all materials where we assume that interatomic forces are linear, when atoms separate these forces decrease. There is a point where the separation between atoms is enough that thermal agitation can separate the molecules and there is a change of state, generally from solid to liquid and from liquid to vapor. When these changes of state are occurring all the energy supplied is used to break the links, so the temperature does not change.

In the specific case of water, there is a bond called a hydrogen bridge that breaks around 4ºC, therefore, at this temperature there is a deviation from the curve since this link is being broken, this does not lead to a change of macroscopic state.

For the other temperatures the water behaves like the other bodies.

¿A qué velocidad debe circular un auto de carreras para recorrer 87 km en 20 min? (pasar a metros por segundo m/s)
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Velocidad en m / s = 72,25 m / s

Explanation:

Dado

Distancia a recorrer por el coche de carreras = 87 Km

1 km = 1000 m

Por lo tanto, 87 km = 87000 m

Tiempo necesario para viajar 87 km / 87000 metros = 20 minutos o 20 * 60 = 1200 segundos

Velocidad en m / s = 87000/1200

Velocidad en m / s = 72,25 m / s
