How are convection currents important in the Earth System?

Physics
1 answer:
Tanya [424]4 years ago
5 0
<span>Without convection, the equator would stay smoldering hot, the poles would stay well in the deep freeze, and places in between would be in between. The currents move the warm air and warm water from the tropics up to the poles and move cold air and water from the poles down to the tropics. Until now, the coasts have enjoyed milder weather because of the convection currents.  -Hope this helps!</span>

The electromotive force (∈) = 2 V

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

I=2 A

t = 30 s

E = 120 J

Required

The electromotive force (∈)

Solution

The electromotive force : the potential difference between two electrodes in galvanic cell

Can be formulated :

\tt \epsilon=\dfrac{E}{Q}

E = energy, J

Q = charge , Coulomb = i.t

\tt \epsilon=\dfrac{120~J}{2~A\times 30~s}\\\\\epsilon=2~V

Newton's Law of Gravitation says that the magnitude F of the force exerted by a body of mass m on a body of mass M is F = GmM r2
Nookie1986 [14]
<h2>Answers:</h2>

<h2>(a) </h2>

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation, the Gravity Force is:

F=\frac{GMm}{{r}^{2}}     (1)

This expression can also be written as:

F=GMm{r}^{-2}    (2)

If we derive this force F respect to the distance r between the two masses:

\frac{dF}{dr}dFdr=\frac{d}{dr}(GMm{r}^{-2})dr     (3)

Taking into account GMm are constants:

\frac{dF}{dr}dFdr=-2GMm{r}^{-3}     (4)

Or

\frac{dF}{dr}dFdr=-2\frac{GMm}{{r}^{3}}     (5)

<h2> (b) dF/dr represents the rate of change of the force with respect to the distance between the bodies.  </h2><h2 />

In other words, this means how much does the Gravity Force changes with the distance between the two bodies.

More precisely this change is inversely proportional to the distance elevated to the cubic exponent.

As the distance increases, the Force decreases.

<h2>(c) The minus sign indicates that the bodies are being forced in the negative direction.  </h2>

This is because Gravity is an attractive force, as well as, a central conservative force.

This means it does not depend on time, and both bodies are mutually attracted to each other.

<h2>(d) </h2>

In the first answer we already found the decrease rate of the Gravity force respect to the distance, being its unit N/km:

\frac{dF}{dr}dFdr=-2\frac{GMm}{{r}^{3}}     (5)

We have a force that decreases with a rate 1 \frac{dF_{1}}{dr}dFdr=4N/km when r=20000km:

4N/km=-2\frac{GMm}{{(20000km)}^{3}}     (6)

Isolating -2GMm:

-2GMm=(4N/km)({(20000km)}^{3})     (7)

In addition, we have another force that decreases with a rate 2 \frac{dF_{2}}{dr}dFdr=X when r=10000km:

XN/km=-2\frac{GMm}{{(10000km)}^{3}}     (8)

Isolating -2GMm:

-2GMm=X({(10000km)}^{3})     (9)

Making (7)=(9):

(4N/km)({(20000km)}^{3})=X({(10000km)}^{3}       (10)

Then isolating X:

X=\frac{4N/km)({(20000km)}^{3}}{{(10000km)}^{3}}  

Solving and taking into account the units, we finally have:

X=-32N/km>>>>This is how fast this force changes when r=10000 km

Which energy changes take place when a pedalling cyclist uses a generator (dynamo) to light his bicycle lamp?
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: chemical → kinetic → electrical → light

Explanation: At the same time when the generator lights up the bicycle lamp the lamp lights up using electrical energy so mechanical energy is also transformed into electrical energy.
