<h2>Answer: C) It's a high-pressure zone with sinking air</h2>

Explanation:

The intertropical convergence zone is the region of the terrestrial globe where the trade winds of the northern hemisphere converge with those of the southern hemisphere.  

It is characterized by being <u>a belt of low pressure</u> and inconsistent location around the equator constituted by ascending air currents, where large masses of warm and humid air converge from the north and south of the intertropical zone.  

The reason of its inconsistent location is due to the movements of the Earth with the seasons, having as a consequence the amount variation of heat energy from the sun in this region.

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 64.g bullet moving at a speed of 411.ms . Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the bullet is 5.4 × 10³ J

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of kinetic energy is the following:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

KE = kinetic energy.

m = mass of the bullet.

v = speed of the bullet.

Let´s convert the mass unit to kg so that our result is in Joules:

64 g · ( 1 kg / 1000 g) = 0.064 kg

Then, the kinetic energy will be the following:

KE = 1/2 · 0.064 kg · (411 m/s)²

KE = 5.4 × 10³ J

Two forces act in opposite directions on a wood block. What will happen if the forces are unbalanced?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

If two unequal forces act in opposite directions, one larger force must cancel out the smaller force,

leaving the net force to be some number in one direction.

Take for example a game of tug-of-war; there are two  OPPOSITE forces (groups of people) acting on the rope, one force is pulling with a force in the negative direction while the other force is pulling in the positive direction.

If the forces on the rope were unequal, then the stronger force (group) will pull everything in their direction.

The same will happen on two unequal forces of opposite directions acting on a wooden block. Therefore, since the resultant force will have a non-zero magnitude and direction, there will be a change in the block's motion and position.

6. Applying Explain how scientists see what early galaxies looked like..
svlad2 [7]

Answer:  The younger elliptical and lenticular galaxies had results similar to spiral galaxies like the Milky Way. The researchers found that the older galaxies have a larger fraction of low-mass stars than their younger counterparts.

The number of neutrons is equal to the atomic number<br> O A True<br> B. False
jonny [76]

The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons is equal to the difference between the mass number of the atom (M) and the atomic number. Therefore, it is true!
