The correct answer is - Continental polar air mass.

The continental polar air masses are very big air masses that are very cold, and dry. They are much heavier than the air masses that surround them, especially the ones that are further south of them, so they move with ease and push them away, thus spreading over a large territory very quickly and bringing in very cold and dry weather during the winter. This types of air masses are forming over Siberia , and the central part of Canada.

It is Continental polar ( only if this is for apex)

M (b) Calculate the speed of an electron that is accelerated through the same electric potential difference.

MaRussiya [10]

The speed of a electron that is accelerated from rest through an electric potential difference of 120 V is $6.49\times10^6m/s$

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the electron?</h3>

We know, that the energy of the system is always conserved.

Using the Law of Conservation of energy,

$\triangle K+\triangle$ U=0

Here, K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

Now, substituting the formula of U and K, we get:

$(\frac{1}{2} mv^2)+(-q\triangle V)$ =0------(1)

Here,

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

q is the charge on the electron

V is the potential difference

Let $v_f$ and $v_i$ represent the final and initial speed.

Here, $v_i$ =0

Solving for $v_f$ , we get:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{-2q\triangle V}{m} }$

$=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1.602\times10^{-19}\times 120}{9.109\times10^{-31}} }$

=6.49 $\times10^6$ m/s

A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal turn, going from 94.0 km/h to 46.0 km/h in the 17.0 s that it takes to round

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

1.41 m/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert the two speeds from km/h to m/s:

$u = 94.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h} = 26.1 m/s$

$v=46.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=12.8 m/s$

Now we find the centripetal acceleration which is given by

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v = 12.8 m/s is the speed

r = 140 m is the radius of the curve

Substituting values, we find

$a_c=\frac{(12.8 m/s)^2}{140 m}=1.17 m/s^2$

we also have a tangential acceleration, which is given by

$a_t = \frac{v-u}{t}$

where

t = 17.0 s

Substituting values,

$a_t=\frac{12.8 m/s-26.1 m/s}{17.0 s}=-0.78 m/s^2$

The two components of the acceleration are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the resultant acceleration by using Pythagorean theorem:

$a=\sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}=\sqrt{(1.17 m/s^2)+(-0.78 m/s^2)}=1.41 m/s^2$

The sound level measured in a room by a person watching a movie on a home theater system varies from 40 dB during a quiet part t

UNO [17]

Answer:

$\alpha=-3.01dB$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sound level intensity

$\triangle I=40dB-80dB$

Generally the equation for intensity level is mathematically given by

$\alpha=10log_{10}(I/I_x)dB$

Where

I= Intensity measured

$I_x=Threshold\ of\ audibility$

$I_x= 10-12 W / m2$

$\alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_x} - 10 log10 \frac{}I_2{I_x}$

$\alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_2}$

$\alpha=10 log10\frac{40}{80}$

$\alpha=-3.01dB$
