What part of a thunderstorm kills the most people each year?

Physics

Leni [432]3 years ago

Answer:

Lightning

Explanation:

Lightning strikes are electrical discharges that occur when clouds charge electrically. In a storm, lightning is the factor that kills more people each year. They can be seen through irregular and branched trajectories approximately 2 to 5 cm. For such a discharge to occur it is necessary that the soil has an electrical charge opposite to that contained in the clouds, because this way the attraction between them occurs and finally the discharge is released by the cloud.

Lightning can occur between clouds when they begin within one of these clouds (presenting no direct risk to the ground but to aircraft) and between clouds and soil that can begin both in the cloud and on the ground (with those beginning in the clouds presenting greater soil hazard).

Here is the answer. The part of a thunderstorm that kills the <span> most people each year is the LIGHTNING. Thunder is only the sound created and will not hurt anyone, but it is the lightning that can kill anyone who will be struck by it. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!</span>

An object moving 20 m/s
yan [13]

Answer:

<u>We are given:</u>

initial velocity (u) = 20m/s

acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²

time (t) = 8 seconds

displacement (s) = s m

<u />

<u>Solving for Displacement:</u>

From the seconds equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2 * at²

replacing the variables

s = 20(8) + 1/2 * (4)*(8)*(8)

s = 160 + 128

s = 288 m

A 10-m-long glider with a mass of 680 kg (including the passengers) is gliding horizontally through the air at 34 m/s when a 60
german

Answer:

34 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of glider with person = 680 kg

v = Velocity of glider with person = 34 m/s

m_1 = Mass of glider without person = 680-60 kg

v_1 = Gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go

m_2 = Mass of person = 60 kg

v_2 = Velcotiy of person = 34 m/s

As the linear momentum of the system is conserved

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=mv\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{mv-m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{680\times 34-60\times 34}{680-60}\\\Rightarrow v_1=34\ m/s

The gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go is 34 m/s

Small rockets are used to make small adjustments in the speed of satellites. One such rocket has a thrust of 42 N. If it is fire
Over [174]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law that relates force as the product between acceleration and mass. From there, we will get the acceleration. Finally, through the cinematic equations of motion we will find the time required by the object.

If the Force (F) is 42N on an object of mass (m) of 83000kg we have that the acceleration would be by Newton's second law.

F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}

Replacing,

a =\frac{42N}{83000kg}

a =5.06*10^{-4}m/s^2

The total speed change

\Delta v = v_f -v_0 \rightarrow v_f =\text{Final velocity and } v_0 = \text{Initial velocity } we have that the value is 0.71m/s

If we know that acceleration is the change of speed in a fraction of time,

a= \frac{\Delta v}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{\Delta v}{a}

We have that,

t= \frac{0.71m/s}{5.06*10^{-4}m/s^2 }

t = 1403.16s

Therefore the Rocket should be fired around to 1403.16s

In technical terms, every coil of wire increases the "magnetic flux density" (strength) of your magnet.

So it's A (magnetic field increase)
