Write differences between tornado and typhoon

1 answer:

3 0

The difference lies in their size, wind velocity, rate of travel, and duration. A tornado reaches rotating speeds up to 300 miles per hour, travels between 25 and 40 miles per hour, and generally lasts for a few minutes (although it can exist for hours). A typhoon (the term used in the Pacific for a hurricane) has winds that vary from 75 to 200 miles per hour, moves between 10 and 20 miles per hour, has a diameter up to 600 miles, and exists from days up to a week. A tornado generally forms several thousand feet above Earth’s surface, usually during warm, humid weather. A typhoon breeds in low-altitude belts over the ocean, generally from 5 to 15 degrees latitude north or south.

What is your acceleration while sitting in your chair. the latitude of corvallis is 44.4˚.?

marta [7]

<span>You can start with the equations you know

a=v^2/r = (2pi*r/T)^2/r = 4pi^2r/T^2

Radius of earth (R) = 6378.1 km
Time in one day (T) = 86400 seconds
Latitude = 44.4 degrees

If you draw a circle and have the radius going out at a 44.4 degree angle above the center you can then find the r.

r=Rcos(44.4)
r=6378.1cos(44.4)
r= 4556.978198 km or 4556978 m

Now you can plug this value into the acceleration equation from above...

a= 1.8*10^8/7.47*10^9
a= .0241 m/s^2 </span>

<span>THIS IS A GAS PHASE REACTION AND WE ARE GIVE PARTIAL PRESSURES . I WRITE IN TERMS OF P RATHER THAN CONCENTRATION : lnPso2cl12=-kt+lnPso2cl1 initial partial pressure Pso2cl12 the rate constant k and the time t lnPso2cl12=(4.5*10-2*s-1)*65*s+ln (375) so lnPso2cl12=3.002 we take the base e antilog: lnPso2cl12=e3.002 Pso2cl12=20 torr we use the integrated first order rate lnPso2cl12=3.002=k*t+ lnPso2cl12=3.002 we use the same rate constant and initial pressure k=4.5*10-2*s-1 Pso2cl12=375 Pso2cl12=1* so2cl12 Pso2cl12=37.5 torr subtract in Pso2cl12 grom both side lnPso2cl12- lnPso2cl12=-kt ln(x)-ln(y)=ln (x/y) ln (Pso2cl12/Pso2cl20)=-kt we get t -1/k*ln(Pso2cl12/Pso2cl20)=t t=51 s</span>
