Large amounts of water do have a big impact on the weather: indeed, it takes less energy to warm/cool land than water.
Therefore, places near large amounts of water tend to have smaller differences in temperature between summer and winter than places far from waters.

Hence, during winter in Puerto Rico, alongside the coast, the temperature will be higher than in the innermost parts of the island.

A beam of electrons passes through a single slit, and a beam of protons passes through a second, but identical, slit. The electr
ryzh [129]

Answer:

(b) The electrons, because they have the smaller momentum and, hence, the larger de Broglie wavelength

Explanation:

de Broglie wavelength λ = h / m v

Since both electrons and protons have same velocity , momentum mv will be less for electrons because mass of electron is less .

for electron , momentum is less so  . Therefore de Broglie wavelength λ will be more for electrons .

Amount of diffraction that is angle of diffraction is proportional to λ

Therefore electrons having greater de Broglie wavelength will show greater diffraction.

In a Little League baseball game, the 145 g ball enters the strike zone with a speed of 17.0 m/s . The batter hits the ball, and
VMariaS [17]

Hi there!

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Where:

m = mass of object (kg)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

Begin by converting grams to kilograms:

1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg

Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.

I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns

The magnitude is the absolute value, so:

|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns

A physics professor is pushed up a ramp inclined upward at 30.0° above the horizontal as she sits in her desk chair, which slide
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

V = 3.17 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the professor m = 85.0 kg

Angle of the ramp θ = 30.0°

Length travelled L = 2.50 m

Force applied F = 600 N

Initial Speed  u = 2.00 m/s

Solution

Work = Change in kinetic energy

F_{net}d = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} - \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}\\\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} = v^{2} -u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} +u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2(600cos30 - 85\times 9.8 \times sin30) \times 2.5 }{85} +2.00^{2}\\ v^{2} = 10.066\\v = 3..17m/s
