Answer:

Land breeze occurs at night

Explanation:

Land breeze is usually defined as the wind that blows from the land areas to the ocean surface. It occurs during the night time. It is because the land areas have the ability to release heat at a faster rate, in comparison to the ocean water bodies. When the land areas cools, the wind carries the cold and denser prevailing air and reaches the ocean surface in order to balance the warm rising air from the oceans. This is how the heat on earth is being balanced by the simultaneous occurrence of land and sea breeze.

The return flow goes to the right and instead of sea breeze, there's land breeze.

A sphere of volume 1.20×10−3m3 hangs from a cable. When the sphere is completely submerged in water, the tension in the cable is

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

B = 62.9 N

Explanation:

This is an exercise on Archimedes' principle, where the thrust force equals the weight of the liquid

B = ρ g V

write the equilibrium equation

T + B -W = 0

B = W- T (1)

use the density to write the weight

ρ = m / V

m = ρ V

W = ρ g V

substitute in 1

B = m g -T

B = $\rho_{body}$ g V - T

To finish the calculation, the density of the material must be known, suppose it is steel \rho_{body} = 7850 kg / m³

calculate

B = 7850 9.8 1.20 10⁻³ - 29.4

B = 92.3 - 29.4

B = 62.9 N

The apparent weight of a student in alift is 564N . if the mass of the student is 60.3kg, what is the acceleration of the lift ?

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

-.457 m/s^2

Explanation:

Actual weight = 60 .3 (9.81) = 591.54 N

Accel of lift changes this to 60.3 ( 9.81 - L) where L - accel of lift

60.3 ( 9.81 - L ) = 564

solve for L = .457 m/s^2 DOWNWARD

so L = - .457 m/s^2

A 500g object falls off a cliff and losers 100 J from its gravitational potential energy store. if the gravitational field stren

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer : Height, h = 20.4 m

Explanation :

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Gravitational potential energy, PE = 100 J

The Gravitational potential energy is the energy which is possessed due to the height and gravity of an object. It is given as :

PE = m g h

where,

h is the height of the cliff.

$100\ J=0.5\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times h$

h = 20.40 m

So, the height of the cliff is 20.4 m.

An airplane pilot sets a compass course due west and maintains a speed of 220 km/h. after flying for a half hour she finds herse

timurjin [86]

The net speed due west is = distance traveled in west / time taken = 120/0.5 = 240 km/h.

so airspeed due west is = net speed - speed of plane = 240-220= 20 km/h.

airspeed due south is = distance traveled in west / time taken= 20/0.5= 40 km/h.

the magnitude of the wind velocity = √[(airspeed due south )² + (airspeed due west)²] = √ ( 40^2 + 20^2 ) = 44.72 km/h

the angle of airspeed south of west is tan⁻¹ ( airspeed due south / airspeed due west )= tan⁻¹(40/20)=63.43 degrees.

if wind velocity is 40 km/h due south, her velocity should have 20 km/h component in north.

so component west = sqrt ( 220^2 - 40^2 ) = 216.33 km/h.

the angle north of west is arctan( 40/216.33 ) = 10.47 degrees.
