The altitude is usually low. Tropical places are mainly on the ocean, that's usually why it's so hot. They are usually close to the equator, but not right on it. The tropics get a lot of direct sunlight, so wear that sunscreen! The ocean currents are warm, so they bring along warm water. All of those help make the tropics the way they are.

Explain how fluids exert pressure
Veseljchak [2.6K]
In a fluid, all the forces exerted by the individual particles combine to make up the pressure exerted by the fluid 
Due to fundamental nature of fluids, a fluid cannot remain at rest under the presence of shear stress. However, fluids can exert pressure normal to any contacting surface. If a point in the fluid is thought of as a small cube, then it follows from the principles of equilibrium that the pressure on every side of this unit of fluid must be equal. but if this were not a case, the fluid would move in the directions of the resulting force, So the pressure on a fluid at rest is isotropic.

A woman 5.5 ft walks at a rate of 6 ft/sec towards a street light that is 22 ft above the ground. At what rate is the length of
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The length of her shadow is changing at the rate  -2 m/s

Explanation:

Let the height oh the street light, h = 22 ft

Let the height of the woman, w = 5.5 ft

Horizontal distance to the street light = l

length of shadow = x

h/w = (l + x)/x

22/5.5 =  (l + x)/x

4x = l + x

3x = l

x = 1/3 l

taking the derivative with respect to t of both sides

dx/dt = 1/3 dl/dt

dl/dt = -6 ft/sec ( since the woman is walking towards the street light, the value of l is decreasing with time)

dx/dt = 1/3 * (-6)

dx/dt = -2 m/s

Cuando una persona sube y baja una escalera, Cuanto vale su desplazamiento y cual es la medida de su trayectoria.
adoni [48]

Answer:

Primero, definimos el desplazamiento como la distancia entre la posición final y la posición inicial.

Así, si comenzamos abajo, luego subimos la escalera, y luego bajamos, la posición final y la posición inicial serán la misma

por lo que el desplazamiento es igual a cero.

La medida recorrida es el espacio total recorrido.

Es decir, si entre el principio y el final de la escalera hay una distancia D.

La persona que sube y baja, recorre esta distancia dos veces.

Entonces cuando una persona sube y baja la escalera, la medida de su trayectoria será 2*D.

Find the ratio of the lengths of the two mathematical pendulums, if the ratio of periods is 1.5​
juin [17]

Answer:

The ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The ratio of periods of two pendulums is 1.5

Let the lengths be L₁ and L₂.

The time period of a simple pendulum is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}

or

T^2=4\pi^2\dfrac{l}{g}\\\\l=\dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}

Where

l is length of the pendulum

l\propto T^2

or

\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(\dfrac{T_1}{T_2})^2 ....(1)

ATQ,

\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=1.5

Put in equation (1)

\dfrac{l_1}{l_2}=(1.5)^2\\\\=\dfrac{9}{4}

So, the ratio of lengths of the two mathematical pendulums is 9:4.
