Explanation:

The earth is spherical. So it's middle part is bulgjng outside. So more sunlight will be incident on the latitude near the equator. This will heat the air and it will rise up. This will cause high pressure difference and polar disturbances.

I hope this satisfies you. I hope u will follow me and make this the brainliest answer.

- What are (a) the x component, (b) the y component, and (c) the z component of r = a - b +c if a= 7.8 + 6.6 - 7.1 , b= -2.9 + 7

frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

a= 7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k

b= -2.9 i+ 7.4 j+ 3.9k , and

c = 7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k

r = a - b +c

=7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k - ( -2.9i + 7.4j+ 3.9k )+ ( 7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k)

= 7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k +2.9i - 7.4j- 3.9k )+ 7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k

= 18.3 i +18.3 j - k

the angle between r and the positive z axis.

cosθ = 18.3 / √18.3² +18.3² +1

the angle between r and the positive z axis.

= 18.3 / 25.75

cos θ= .71

An engineering firm is designing a ski lift. The wire rope needs to travel with a linear velocity of 2.0 meters per second, and

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 2.0 m/s

Angular velocity = 10 rev/m

$\omega=10\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

$\omega=1.0472\ rad/s$

We need to calculate the diameter of bull-wheel

Using formula of angular velocity

$v= r\omega$

$r=\dfrac{v}{\omega}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{2.0}{1.0472}$

$r=1.91\ m$

The diameter of the bull-wheel

$D=2r$

$D=2\times1.91$

$D=3.82\ m$

Hence, The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82 m.

A charged particle moves through a magnetic field. In which situation is the magnetic force zero?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The answer is the option a.

Explanation:

We know that magnetic force (Fm) is defined as

Fm = q (v x B)

Where q is a the value of the charge, v is the velocity of the charge and B is the value of the magnetic field.

"v x B" is defined as the cross product between the vectors velocity and magnetic field, and if the angle between them is thetha < 180°, then, the cross product is

v x B = vBsin (thetha)

So,

Fm = qvBsin (thetha)

And, in case in which v and B are parallel vectors, thetha is zero, and,

sin (thetha)=sin (0) = 0

So, Fm=0
