Answer:

<h2>c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.</h2>

Explanation:

Choices for this question are

a. Less flooding because rain will have more time to soak into the ground.

b. Less total rainfall from a weakening system.

c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.

d. Shorter period under the rainbands.

When hurricane's forward speed decreases, they will last more time, because their energy is gonna last more. This means that the rainfall will also last more days. Even-though, slower hurricanes tend to last more time because of this, so, the chances of happening floods is higher, because the rainfall will continue for more days.

Answer:

The correct answer is c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.

When the the forward speed of the hurricanes and tropical storms slows down they tend to increase the rainfall. Because of the slow movement the storm can be for few days over a given region and produce rainfall without stopping, thus create major flooding, pilling up of the coastal water, and produce persistent strong winds even though they have decreased in their forward speed.

A boy throws a ball of mass 0.22 kg straight upward with an initial speed of 29 m/s. When the ball returns to the boy, its speed
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The work is -67.76 J

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy is considered one of one of the fundamental laws of physics and states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant. except when it is transformed into other types of energy.

This is summed up in the principle that energy can neither be created nor destroyed in the universe, only transformed into other forms of energy.

In this case you must calculate the loss of kinetic energy. This loss is actually the work done against the resistive force in the air. Friction is the only force other than gravity that acts on the ball.

So, the loss of kinetic energy is \frac{1}{2} *m*(vf^{2} -vi^{2} )

You know:

  • mass=m=0.22 kg
  • Initial velocity of the ball: vi= 29 \frac{m}{s}

Final velocity of the ball: vf= 15 \frac{m}{s}

Replacing:

\frac{1}{2} *0.22 kg*(15^{2} -29^{2} )= -67.76 J

Friction work is always negative because friction is always against displacement.

<u><em>The work is -67.76 J</em></u>

A hoop and a disk with uniform mass distribution have the same radius but the total masses are not known. Can they both roll dow
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of hoop and the radius of disk is same = R

Let the mass of hoop is M and the mass of disk is M'.

As they reach the bottom of teh surface in same time so they travel equal distance thus, they have same acceleration.

The acceleration is given by

a=\frac{gSin\theta }{1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}

As the acceleration is same so that the moment of inertia is also same.

Moment of inertia of disk = moment of inertia of hoop

1/2 x mass of disk x R² =  mass of hoop x R²

So, mass of disk = 2 x mass of hoop

Option (c) is correct.
