Answer:

1.566 x 10^2

Move the decimal to where the number being multiplied by 10^x is greater than 1 but less than 10. Then multiply it by 10^x

X is the number of times you moved the decimal, so in this case it would be 10^2

What type of weather would a continental Polar air mass bring

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Continental polar ( cp):

Explanation:

Cold and dry, originating from high latitudes, typically as air flowing out of the polar highs. This air mass often brings the rattleing cold, dry and clear weather on a perfect winter day and also dry and warm weather on a pleasant day in summer.

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Suppose your local apparent solar time is 11 am, and you have a clock that says it is noon in Greenwich. What is your longitude

jeyben [28]

The longitude based on the time difference is 15 degrees.

<h3>Longitude of complete rotation of the Earth</h3>

The longitude of a complete rotation of the earth in a 24 hours is calculated as follows;

$= \frac{360^0}{24} = 15^0 \ of \ longitude$

<h3>Time difference</h3>

The time difference between the local apparent solar time and the Greenwich time is calculated as follows;

$t = 12 pm \ - \ 11 am\\\\t = 1 \ hour$

Since it is one hour time difference, the longitude is 15 degrees.

a person dives off the edge of aa cliff 33m above the surface of the sea. assuming that air resistance is negligible, how long d

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The time is $t = 2.595 \ s$

The speed is $v = 25.43 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the cliff is $h = 33 \ m$

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

$h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

before the jump the persons initial velocity is u = 0 m/s

$33 = 0 * t + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 * t^2$

=> $t = 2.595 \ s$

Generally from kinematic equation

$v= u + gt$

=> $v= 0 + 9.8 * 2.595$

=> $v = 25.43 \ m/s$

PLEASE HELP ASAP! THANKS!<br><br> Why is it a rare occasion to see a solar eclipse from your home?

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

It is very rare to see a solar eclipse from your home, because the Earth, Sun, and the moon need to align just right. Not everyone in the world can view a solar eclipse, only some area can. A solar eclipse is where the moon blocks out the sun. If you think about it: Let's say you live in Florida, U.S.A. You may see the moon coming in front of the sun, but if you lived in California or sumthin', the moon and the sun wouldn't be aligned to form a solar eclipse. It all depends on location... so it is rare to see one.
