As the Earth spins, the Coriolis effect causes a slight change in these north-south winds that influences their direction. Each hemisphere has its own trade wind patterns that blow from its respective pole to the equator and back. This means that the Coriolis effect causes the winds in the northern hemisphere to shift to the right, while the wind currents in the southern hemisphere shift towards the left.

This happens because the earth is rotating underneath the wind current in a very fast counterclockwise direction, leading to this perceived shift in the current. However, the wind currents themselves are not actually shifting; it simply looks as if they are due to the earth rotating below them.

So, if the Earth stops spinning, then there would be no wind.

a line passes through (8,-4) and has a slope 2/3. what is an equation in point slope form of the line? An equation of the line i
evablogger [386]

from the question

x₁ = x-coordinate = 8

y₁ = y-coordinate = - 4

m = slope of line = 2/3

slope form of the line is given as

(y - y₁ ) = m (x - x₁)

inserting the values

(y - (- 4) ) = (2/3) (x - 8)

(3) (y + 4) = (2) (x - 8)

multiplying each term inside the bracket by 3  and 2 respective on left and right side

3y + 12 = 2 x - 16

2 x - 3 y - 16 - 12 = 0

2 x - 3 y - 28 = 0

If 20 beats are produced within one second, which of the following frequencies could possibly be held by two sound waves traveli
NeTakaya

Answer:

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz

Explanation:

  • When two waves with different frequency travelling in the same medium meet each other, they produce an interference pattern called beat.
  • <em><u>The frequency of the beat produced is equivalent to </u></em><em><u>the difference between the individual frequencies of the two waves involved.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore; in this case since the frequency of the beat is 20 Hz, that is from 20 beats per second.</u></em>
  • We need to find a pair from the choices whose frequency difference is 20 Hz.
  • This happens to be choice D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz,  that is 42 Hz - 22 Hz = 20 Hz
