Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Wind is created due to the pressure difference and it blows from a region of higher pressure to a region of low pressure.

Atmosphere refers to the envelope of gases that surrounds the earth. It is comprised of various types of gases which are present in various amount.

The wind blowing away sand in a desert environment describes the interaction between the geosphere and the atmosphere as the wind is a part of the atmosphere and the sand is a part of the geosphere.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Suppose a 4,000-kg elephant is hoisted 20 m above Earth’s surface. Use a calculator and follow the steps below to find the eleph
stiv31 [10]
GPE = 78,380 J
w = 39,240 N

First list what you know. You know the elephants mass and it’s height. You also know gravity on Earth. I will use g = 9.81.
m = 4,000 kg
h = 20 m
g = 9.81 m/s^2

You need to find the elephants weight. Weight = mass x gravity
w = mg
w = (4000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)
w = 39,240 N (N = newtons)

Now, knowing the elephants weight, you can calculate its GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy = weight x height

GPE = wh
GPE = (39,240N)(20m)
GPE = 78,380 J (J = joules)

Why is tornadoes hitting the east coast of the USA?
OLga [1]

Answer:

The outbreak of tornadoes that tore across the Gulf and the East Coast Tuesday and Wednesday was unusual for two reasons. For one thing, the severe weather encompassed a significant swath of the country. For another, winter is the least likely time for tornadic thunderstorms.

Explanation:

The outbreak of tornadoes that tore across the Gulf and the East Coast Tuesday and Wednesday was unusual for two reasons. For one thing, the severe weather encompassed a significant swath of the country. For another, winter is the least likely time for tornadic thunderstorms.

And yet tornadoes are an expected part of life in the United States—especially in the multi-state area known as Tornado Alley. (Florida, too, sees a disproportionately high number of tornadoes, because of its frequent thunderstorms.) The United States gets more tornadoes, by far, than any other place on the planet. It averages about 1,250 twisters a year. Canada, which sees about 100 tornadoes per year, is a “distant second,” according to the National Centers for Environmental Information.

Halley's comet orbits the sun roughly once every 76 years. It comes very close to the surface of the Sun on its closest approach
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m

v1 = 9*10^4 m/s

From conservation of energy

K1 +U1 = K2 +U2

0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2

0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2

M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2

0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))

v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s
