The intensity of most of the cyclonic storm reduces after hitting land due to the transfer of storm energy to the land because of friction between them and also as the shortage of moisture in land.

Explanation:

The cyclonic storm has very high speed and also lot of moisture content is present in the cyclonic storms as they are formed from interior of ocean.

The cyclonic storms originate by getting energy from the warm tropical oceans and in open space.

The storm originating region should have constant temperature of about 26.5 °C.

So when these storms with high moisture content and temperature reaches the land, the objects in land like houses, trees, bushes, vehicles and many more hinders the movement of the storm, thus transferring the storm energy to destroy them on the path of storm.

This causes a frictional force which leads to some loss in the storm strength and the other factor is the difference between the temperature gradient of land compared to sea level and the absence of moisture in the land also leading to rain fall which in turn weakens the cyclonic storm.

The intensity of most cyclones reduces after hitting land because land takes away the heat and moisture of tropical ocean water. In order to survive, cyclone storms need evaporation from the warm sea surface. Intensity also decreases because of greater fiction on land, compared to the sea surface.

If a roller coaster cart, with a mass of 100 kg, traveled this coaster, how much kinetic energy would it have at point 'E'?
zzz [600]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming no friction between the roller coaster car and the hill, and neglecting air resistance, the kinetic energy the roller coaster car would have at the bottom of the hill would be equal to its gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, by conservation of energy.

Would it be true that if you double the distance of an astronaut from a planet, the gravitational pull between them would be hal
velikii [3]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation is usually stated that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses(m1 and m2) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers(r).

F = Gm1m2/r²

This is a general physical law derived from

empirical observations by what Isaac Newton called inductive reasoning.

when distance is doubled the gravitational force will be reduced by quarter not half.

Which events took place during the Copernican revolution, when most people started to believe in a heliocentric model of the sol
balu736 [363]
<h2>2) Copernicus rediscovered Aristarchus’s heliocentric model.</h2>

Before Copernican Revolution, people did believe in the ptolemain model that establishes the description of the Universe with the earth at the center having sun, moon, starts and planets all orbited earth. On the other hand, the heliocentric model establishes the sun at the center of the solar system and this starts with the publication of Nicolas Copernicus named <em>De revolutionibus orbium coelestium.</em>

<h2>5) Newton’s theories of gravity increased understanding of the movement of planets.</h2>

The revolution ended with Isaac Newton's work over a century later. As you well know, Newton was both a physicist and mathematician, better known for his prodigal work called <em>Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. </em>In this revolution, he is known for his laws of motion and universal gravitation increasing understanding of the movement of planets.

How much would it cost to cover the entire land area of the U.S. in dollar bills?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  $900 trillion

Explanation:

If Alaska is 20% of the contiguous US, then the approximate area of interest is ...

  1200 miles × 3000 miles = 3.6×10^6 square miles.

The size of a dollar bill is about ...

  (6.5 cm)·(15.5 cm) = 100.75 cm^2

One mile is 160,934.4 cm, so 1 square mile is about ...

  1 mi^2 = (160,934.4 cm)^2 ≈ 2.59·10^10 cm^2

The number of dollars of interest is then ...

  (3.6 · 10^6 mi^2)(2.59 · 10^10 cm^2)/(100.75 cm^2) ≈ 9.3·10^14

  ≈ 930 × 10^12 . . . dollars

It would cost about 900 trillion dollars to cover the land area of the US in $1 bills.

A particle is released as part of an experiment. Its speed t seconds after release is given by v (t )equalsnegative 0.4 t square
torisob [31]

Answer:

a) 2.933 m

b) 4.534 m

Explanation:

We're given the equation

v(t) = -0.4t² + 2t

If we're to find the distance, then we'd have to integrate the velocity, since integration of velocity gives distance, just as differentiation of distance gives velocity.

See attachment for the calculations

The conclusion of the attachment will be

7.467 - 2.933 and that is 4.534 m

Thus, The distance it travels in the second 2 sec is 4.534 m
