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)

What are the properties of solid,liquid and gas?

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Hey mate!!

<h3>Properties of Solid:</h3>

They have fixed shape.
They have fixed volume.
They do not flow.
They cannot be compressed because their molecules are closely packed.
They are mostly hard.

<h3>Properties of Liquid:</h3>

They do not have fixed shape but can take the shape of their container.
They cannot be compressed.
They flow from one place to another as their molecules are loosely packed.
They have fixed volume.

<h3>Properties of Gas:</h3>

They do not have fixed volume.
They can flow very easily.
They can be compressed easily.
They do not have a fixed shape as the position of their molecules are not fixed.

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

For every _______ over 50 mph, your chances of being seriously injured, disfigured, or killed are doubled.

user100 [1]

Answer:

10 mph

Explanation:

Exceeding speed limit is one of the major causes of road accident.

Crash severity increases with the speed of the vehicle at impact.

The probability of death, disfigurement, or debilitating injury grows with higher speed at impact.

The above consequences double for every 10 mph over

50 mph that a vehicle travels.

An alarm clock draws 0.5 A of current when connected to a 120 volt circuit. Calculate its resistance.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

We need to calculate the resistance of a clock which draws current I=0.5A and is connected to a circuit of V=120V. We can find the resistance of a circuit from Ohm's law: I=U/R where I is the current, U is the voltage and R is the resistance. So lets manipulate Ohm's law to find the resistance: R=U/I. Now we input our numbers: R=120V/0.5A and we get R=240 Ohm. So the resistance is R=240 Ohm.

Hot air balloon A is rising upward a rate of 5.0 m/s. A passenger aboard balloon A observes balloon B rising upward at a relativ

AnnZ [28]

Velocity B (relative to the A) = Velocity B (relative to the ground) - Velocity A (relative to the ground)

Velocity B (relative to the ground) = Velocity B (relative to the A) + Velocity A (relative to the ground)

Velocity B (relative to the ground) = 7.5 + 5 = 12 m/s

Since both go up in the same direction, we should use the minus sign for relative velocity.

An arbitrarily shaped piece of conductor is given a net negative charge and is alone in space. What can we say about the electri

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The electrostatic potential within the conductor will be negative and constant throughout the conductor.

Explanation:

Whenever a conductor is charged the total charge is spread throughout the entire surface uniformly. Inside the conductor the net electric field is always zero. Also we know if $\overrightarrow{E}$ e the electric field and V is the potential, then

$\overrightarrow{E}= - \overrightarrow{\nabla}V$

Now as in this case electric field within the conductor is zero, so potential (V) has to be constant.
