What happens during a hurricane ??

Hurricanes are intense storms that originate in the Tropics. Hurricanes begin life as a small gathering of unorganized storms which gain energy from the heat of the ocean water. If certain conditions in the atmosphere are present, the gathering of individual clouds will begin to organize into a single storm. If the storm continues to feed off the heat supplied by the ocean, the organization of the cloud clusters will intensify and the winds will increase and circulate around a specific center, the eye. As a matter of fact, meteorologists place hurricanes in a category called cyclones. Cyclones are characterized by a circular wind pattern or circulation. Tornadoes, waterspouts, and dust devils are also members of this category.

During a hurricane, the air pressure decreases. This is the most important characteristic of a hurricane. Now do you think you know when Bertha passed? On July 11, near hour 14. It is at this time that the air pressure was at a minimum. Also, the wind speeds increase when a hurricane approaches. At hour 14, the wind speed and wind gust are near their maximum values of 18 meters/second and 24 meters/second, respectively. Keep in mind that Station 41010 was not near the most dangerous and intense area of the hurricane -- the eye wall. If this station were nearer the eye wall, the wind speeds and gusts would have been much higher and the air pressure would have been much lower.

Which substance has two neutrons?<br><br> A. H-2<br><br> B. He-2<br><br> C. He-3<br><br> D. He-4
Feliz [49]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

In a Helium (He) atom, the atomic structure of the atom has 2 protons, 2 electrons and 2 neutrons. For an element X to be a Helium (He) atom, it must possess 2 protons. The number of neutrons present will determine its stability either if its probably radioactive or a natural occurring inert gas.

In option 1,

We have H-2. The symbol "H" is used to denote the element hydrogen in the periodic table and hydrogen has only 1 protons and 1 neutron making its mass number 2.

Option 2,

He -2 : here in this option, we have a helium atom, but with mass number of 2 only. Judging from the formula of mass number = protons + neutrons, we already have proton as 2, hence the number of neutrons there is zero (0)

Option 3,

He - 3 : just like in option 2, the only difference here is that the mass number is 3 hence making the number of neutrons just 1.

Option 4,

He - 4 : This option met the requirements of having 2 protons and 2 neutrons making a total of 4 which corresponds to the mass number.

The cost of painting the circular traffic sign shown below is $3.50 per square foot. How much, to the nearest dollar, will it co
KiRa [710]

The cost of painting the traffic sign of 7.065 square feet is approximately equal to 25 dollar.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The cost of painting the circular traffic sign is given as 3.50 dollar per square feet. The diameter of the traffic sign is 36 inch, then its radius will be \frac{36}{2} = 18 inches.

But as the cost is given in unit of feet, we have to convert the radius from inches to feet.

1 inches = 0.0833 feet

18 inches = 18 × 0.0833 feet

So, the radius of the traffic sign will be approximately equal to 1.5 feet.

The area of the traffic sign will be \pi r^{2} = 3.14 \times 1.5 \times 1.5 = 7.065 square feet.

So, if the cost of painting 1 square feet of traffic sign is 3.50 dollar, then

cost of painting 7.065 square feet of traffic sign =  3.50 × 7.065 = 24.7 dollar.

Thus, the cost of painting the traffic sign of 7.065 square feet is approximately equal to 25 dollar.
