What determines the direction of surface winds in the mid-latitudes?

The reason a penny thrown straight up inside a bus will come back to your hand is that you, the bus, the air inside the bus, and

Mkey [24]

Answer:

its false

Explanation:

since the penny is thrown straight up its not going to move forwad with you and the bus since it has no forces pushing on it. If the bus wasn't moving it would land back on your hand

An open 1-m-diameter tank contains water at a depth of 0.7 m when at rest. As the tank is rotated about its vertical axis the ce

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the angular velocity of the tank at which the bottom of the tank is exposed

From the information given:

At rest, the initial volume of the tank is:

$V_i = \pi R^2 h_i --- (1)$

where;

height h which is the height for the free surface in a rotating tank is expressed as:

$h = \dfrac{\omega^2 r^2}{2g} + C$

at the bottom surface of the tank;

r = 0, h = 0

∴

$h = \dfrac{\omega^2 r^2}{2g} + C$

0 = 0 + C

C = 0

Thus; the free surface height in a rotating tank is:

$h=\dfrac{\omega^2 r^2}{2g} --- (2)$

Now; the volume of the water when the tank is rotating is:

dV = 2π × r × h × dr

Taking the integral on both sides;

$\int \limits ^{V_f}_{0} \ dV = \int \limits ^R_0 \times 2 \pi \times r \times h \ dr$

replacing the value of h in equation (2); we have:

$V_f} = \int \limits ^R_0 \times 2 \pi \times r \times ( \dfrac{\omega ^2 r^2}{2g} ) \ dr$

$V_f = \dfrac{ \pi \omega ^2}{g} \int \limits ^R_0 \ r^3 \ dr$

$V_f = \dfrac{ \pi \omega ^2}{g} \Big [ \dfrac{r^4}{4} \Big]^R_0$

$V_f = \dfrac{ \pi \omega ^2}{g} \Big [ \dfrac{R^4}{4} \Big] --- (3)$

Since the volume of the water when it is at rest and when the angular speed rotates at an angular speed is equal.

Then $V_f = V_i$

Replacing equation (1) and (3)

$\dfrac{\pi \omega^2}{g}( \dfrac{R^4}{4}) = \pi R^2 h_i$

$\omega^2 = \dfrac{4g \times h_i }{R^2}$

$\omega =\sqrt{ \dfrac{4g \times h_i }{R^2}}$

$\omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{4 \times 9.81 \ m/s^2 \times 0.7 \ m}{(0.5)^2} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{109.87 }$

$\mathbf{\omega = 10.48 \ rad/s}$

Finally, the angular velocity of the tank at which the bottom of the tank is exposed = 10.48 rad/s

What distance will be traveled if you are going 120km/hr for 30 min? steps please

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

D= Speed x Time
Then you convert 120km/hr to m/s depends in wich unifs you want them
120/hr to m/s it's 33.3 m/s and then 30min to seconds it's 1800
D= 33.3m/s(1800s)
D= 59940m
