Answer: the eastward movement of winds and currents in the pacific.

El Nino is an abnormal weather condition which occurs due to the warming of the Pacific ocean near the equator. This occurs due to the fact that the sun warms the water near the equator, this results in formation of massive amount of clouds and rain. The westward- blowing trade winds moves towards the equator. This results in change in the air pressure and wind speed causing warm surface water to move eastwards along the Equator and the currents in the Pacific moves towards the coast of northern South America.

Light of wavelength 425.0 nm in air falls at normal incidence on an oil film that is 850.0 nm thick. The oil is floating on a wa
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

in oil film        λ = 303.57 10⁻⁹ m

in the water film    λ = 319.55 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

When electromagnetic radiation reaches a material, its propagation is by a process that we call absorption and reflection,

when light reaches a surface it has a mass much greater than the mass of the photons (m = 0), therefore there is an elastic collision where the frequency does not change, due to the speed of light in the material medium changes, therefore the only possibility is that the wavelength in the material changes, to maintain the relationship

             v = λ f

in the void we have

             c = λ₀ f

we divide the two expression

            c / v = λ₀ / λ

the refractive index is

             

              n = c / v

              n = λ₀ /λ

              λ = λ₀ / n

let's calculate

in oil film

            λ = 425 10⁻⁹ / 1.40

            λ = 303.57 10⁻⁹ m

in the water film

            λ = 425 10⁻⁹ / 1.33

            λ = 319.55 10⁻⁹

those wavelengths are in the ultraviolet

A wave on the ocean surface with wavelength 44 m travels east at a speed of 18 m/s relative to the ocean floor. If, on this stre
inessss [21]

Answer:

A)t=<u>1.375s</u>

B)t=11s

Explanation:

for this problem we will assume that the east is positive while the west is negative, what we must do is find the relative speed between the wave and the powerboat, and then with the distance find the time for each case

ecuations

V=Vw-Vp  (1)

V= relative speed

Vw= speed of wave

Vp=Speesd

t=X/V(2)

t=time

x=distance=44m

A) the powerboat moves to west

V=18-(-14)=32m/s

t=44/32=<u>1.375s</u>

B)the powerboat moves to east

V=18-14=4

t=44/4=<u>11s</u>
