What is the Coriolis Force?

Physics
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
7 0

It's a virtual force ... one that seems to be there but isn't really there.

When something tries to fly or flow straight, through a rotating neighborhood, it ends up flying or flowing in a curved path, AS IF there were a force acting on it to make it curve. THAT apparent force is the Coriolis force.

It's what makes air, flowing away from high pressure or into low pressure, form the big rotating pressure systems on the rotating Earth.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range​

Explanation:

Projectile is the motion of an object thrown into space. When an object is thrown into space, the only force which acts on it is the acceleration due to gravity.

An object thrown into space would reach maximum height (vertical range) if it is launched at an angle of 90 degrees. For maximum horizontal range, the object needs to be launched at an angle of 45 degrees.

Therefore Dylan is incorrect because a 90-degree launch angle results in the largest vertical range​

Why do you think football players are usually large in size?
kiruha [24]
Football players in the NFL are large in size due to their eating habits since as players they have to work out constantly to stay and shape and eat to gain weight and be strong, so its important for them to be strong against their opponents in gameplay. Football players sometimes take steroids which make their muscles stronger and harder, and also gives them a growth spurt but the effects are worse and makes them sicker, high blood pressure, and even more.

Physicist Max Planck showed how objects like stars give off different colors based on their temperature. What color are the hott
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

the brightest found are Blue - White with

Explanation:

The energy emission of objects increases with their temperature, specifically Wien described the process in an expression

 

          \lambda_{maximum} T = 2,898 10⁻³

With this expression we can find the temperature of the stars by the color they emit.

Specifically the Sun has a color of 550 nm which corresponds to 5400K

bright stars have a BLUE color corresponding to 7500K

the brightest found are Blue - White with a temperature of 20000K
