Answer:

Sirocco wind

Explanation:

The Sirocco wind usually refers to the warm, moisture containing wind that originates from the northern part of the Mediterranean Sea as well as the southern part of Europe. This wind moves from the southern/southeastern direction and carries the unbearable moisture containing air.

This hot and steady south wind arises over the region of North Africa in the form of dry wind and eventually carries the moisture content in it as it travels across the Mediterranean sea, and thereby reaches the Southern part of Europe.

On a coordinate plane, 2 exponential functions are shown. f (x) = 5 Superscript x Baseline approaches y = 0 in quadrant 2 and in
kiruha [24]

Answer:

k = -7

Explanation:

Given

f(x) = 5^x through (0,1) and (1,5)

g(x) = 5^x + k through (0,-6) and (1,-2)

Required

Determine the value of k if f(x) is translated vertically down

To get the value of k, we perform the following operations.

For (0,-6) --- Substitute 0 for x and -6 for g(x) in g(x) = 5^x + k

g(x) = 5^x + k

-6 = 5^0 + k

-6 = 1 + k

k + 1 = -6

k = -6 - 1

k = -7

For (1,-2) --- Substitute 1 for x and -2 for g(x) in g(x) = 5^x + k

g(x) = 5^x + k

-2 = 5^1 + k

-2 = 5 + k

k+5 = -2

k= -2-5

k = -7

To further show that k = -7, we have the following:

f(x) = 5^x

When translated downward by 7 units, the function becomes

g(x) = f(x) - 7

Recall that: g(x) = 5^x + k and f(x) = 5^x

So, we have:

5^x + k = 5^x - 7

Subtract 5^x from both sides

5^x - 5^x + k = 5^x - 5^x + 7

k = -7

What kind of orbit in which the satellite stays in the same location in the sky
Anvisha [2.4K]

That's called a "geostationary" orbit.  (Not "geosynchronous".)

It's the situation when the satellite's orbit is

-- perfectly circular,
-- exactly over the equator,
-- and at exactly the right distance from the center of the Earth
(<span>42,164 km  or  26,199 mi).</span>

None of these conditions can ever be perfect, and in fact they change over time.
So every real geostationary satellite actually describes a little figure-8 in the sky
once a day.  The better its orbit is, the smaller the figure-8. 

In order to keep the orbit reasonably correct, it needs a puff from its onboard
thrusters every once in a while. 

That's how a TV or weather satellite reaches its "end of life", if it doesn't get
smashed by a meteoroid first:  Either its solar panels get too dusty and chipped
by micrometeoroids to generate enough power, or else it runs so low on fuel for
its onboard thrusters that it can't be kept in a useful orbit.  At that point, the fuel
that remains is used to intentionally put it into a crazy orbit, where it will dip low
into the atmosphere and burn up. 

Why destroy it ?  To get it out of the geostationary orbital track, and open up one
of those precious slots for a new, young satellite to take its place.  There are only
a few hundred slots available where a satellite can be geostationary.  (And a slot
over the Indian Ocean doesn't do TV viewers in the US much good.)
