How are weather satellites and weather stations similar?

Physics

alexandr402 [8]4 years ago
6 0
<span>Weather satellites and weather stations are similar, because they both have the same purpose. They are used to help predict future weather as well as as current conditions. The satellites are viewing the weather from a distance at a large scope, but stations are using data they collect on earth to help with the same task.</span>

1. *A car is going over the top of a hill whose curvature approximates a circle of radius 200 m. At
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The velocity of motion at which the occupants of the car appear to weigh 20% less than their normal weight is approximately 19.81 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The curvature of the hill, r = 200 m

Due to the velocity, v, the occupants weight = 20% less than the normal weight

The outward force of an object due to centripetal (motion) force is given by the following equation;

F_c = \dfrac{m \times v^2}{r}

Where;

r = The radius of curvature of the hill = 200 m

Given that the weight of the occupants, W = m × g, we have;

F_c = 0.2 \times W = 0.2 \times m \times g

\therefore 0.2 \times m \times g = \dfrac{m \times v^2}{r}

v = √(0.2 × g × r)

By substitution, we have;

v = √(0.2 × 9.81 × 200) ≈ 19.81

The velocity of motion at which the occupants of the car appear to weigh 20% less than their normal weight ≈ 19.81 m/s.

What is the minimum speed needed to fire a champagne cork a distance of 11m?
Crank

To start with solving this problem, let us assume a launch angle of 45 degrees since that gives out the maximum range for given initial speed. Also assuming that it was launched at ground level since no initial height was given. Using g = 9.8 m/s^2, the initial velocity is calculated using the formula:

(v sinθ)^2 = (v0 sinθ)^2 – 2 g d

where v is final velocity = 0 at the peak, v0 is the initial velocity, d is distance = 11 m

Rearranging to find for v0: <span>
v0 = sqrt (d * g/ sin(2 θ)) </span>

<span>v0 = 10.383 m/s</span>

The plot of velocity versus time is a horizantal line between,(0, 4), and (5, 4). Time is measures in seconds and velocity in me
defon

Well, first of all, let's not make something complicated ... for which we're missing an important component anyway ... out of something simple.  There's more to "velocity" than 'meters per second'.  So let's just call that what it is: " Speed ".

Here's what you've told us:

-- Something is moving along a ruler or meter stick.

-- At every instant from time=0 to time=5, its speed was constant at 4 m/s.

-- At time=0, it was located at  6m .

We can calculate:

-- Moving steadily at 4 m/s for 5 seconds, it moved (4 x 5) = 20 meters.

-- If it was located at  6m  when time=0, then at time=6, it had advanced
to (6 + 20) = 26 meters.
