Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night

Physics
1 answer:
Sliva [168]2 years ago
4 0

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.

A car travels at a constant speed around a circular track whose radiu is 2.6 km. The goes once arond the track in 360s . What is
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration = 0.79 m/s²

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Radius, r = 2.6 km

Time = 360 seconds

<em><u>Conversion:</u></em>

2.6 km to meters = 2.6 * 1000 = 2600 meters

To find the magnitude of centripetal acceleration;

First of all, we would determine the circular speed of the car using the formula;

Circular \; speed (V) = \frac {2 \pi r}{t}

Where;

  • r represents the radius and t is the time.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Circular \; speed (V) = \frac {2*3.142*2600}{360}

Circular \; speed (V) = \frac {16338.4}{360}

Circular speed, V = 45.38 m/s

Next, we find the centripetal acceleration;

Mathematically, centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;

Centripetal \; acceleration = \frac {V^{2}}{r}

Where;

  • V is the circular speed (velocity) of an object.
  • r is the radius of circular path.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Centripetal \; acceleration = \frac {45.38^{2}}{2.6}

Centripetal \; acceleration = \frac {2059.34}{2600}

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 0.79 m/s²</em>

Rocks A and B are located at the same height on top of a hill. The mass of rock A is twice the mass of rock B. How does the pote
Ronch [10]

Potential energy is defined by formula

U = mgh

here

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Now here two different stones are located at same height

while mass of stone A is twice that of stone B

so here we can say potential energy of A is

U_a = (2m)gh

Similarly potential energy of B is

U_b = mgh

now if we take the ratio of two energy

\frac{U_a}{U_b} = 2

so we can say potential energy of stone A is two times the potential energy of B
