Explain why so much tornado activity occurs in the spring season in the great plains region of the united states.

1 answer:

3 0

Tornadoes are more common in the united states than in the other countries. united states received a total of 1,200 tornadoes annually, four times the amount seen in europe. most tornadoes in the united states occur east of the rocky mountains. the great plains, the midwest, the mississippi valley and the southern united states, are all areas that are vulnerable to tornadoes.

To understand the nature of electric fields and how to draw field lines. Electric field lines are a tool used to visualize elect

Brrunno [24]

Explanation:

The electric field is defined as the change in the properties of space caused by the existence of a positively (+) or negatively (-) charged particle. The electric field can be represented by infinitely many lines from a particle, and those lines never intersect each other. Depending on the type of charge we can see different cases:

Let's say we have a positive charge alone (image 1). The field lines are drawn from the centre of the particle outwards to infinity (in other words, they disappear from the edge of the picture). Meaning the direction of the electric field points outwards the particle.

For a negative charge alone (image 2), the lines come from infinity to the centre, and point towards the particle (i.e. lines appear from the edge of the picture).

Let's see what happens if we have two charges together:

Two positive charges (image 3): Since the charges are of the same type (positive), the particles repel each other. Then the field lines will avoid each other so they do not join. The charge is positive, so lines point outwards.
Two negative charges (image 4): Again, the charges are both negative, so they repel. But they are negative, so the field points inwards.
Negative and positive charges (image 5): They are different charges, so the force between them is attractive. This causes the field lines from both to join. They go out of the positive and come into the negative particle.

Image 6:

The lines are passing through infinite points of the space. If we choose a certain point and measure the electric field, we can see to which direction the electric field points. This is the direction of the electric field vector. It does not matter which point we choose; the electric field vector touches the field line only at this point, which means it is tangent to the field line.

Suppose a certain jet plane creates an intensity level of 124 dB at a distance of 5.01 m. What intensity level does it create on

Zolol [24]

Answer:71 dB

Explanation:

Given

sound Level $\beta _1=124 dB$

distance $r_1=5.01 m$

From sound Intensity

$\beta =10dB\log (\frac{I_1}{I_0})$

$124=10dB\log (\frac{I_1}{I_0})$

$12.4=\log (\frac{I_1}{I_0})$

$I_1=(1\times 10^{-12})\times 10^{12.4}$

$I_1=2.51 W/m^2$

we know Intensity $I\propto ^\frac{1}{r^2}$

$I_1r_1^2=I_2r_2^2$

$I_2=I_1(\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2$

$I_2=2.51\cdot (\frac{5.01}{2.25\times 10^3})^2$

$I_2=1.24\times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Sound level corresponding to $I_2$

$\beta _2=10\log (\frac{I_2}{I_0})$

$\beta _2=10\log (\frac{1.24\times 10^{-5}}{1\times 10^{-12}})$

$\beta _2=70.93\approx 71 dB$

Can someone help me ?

hammer [34]

Answer:

1) Time interval Blue Car Red Car

0 - 2 s Constant Velocity Increasing Velocity

2 - 3 s Constant Velocity Constant Velocity

3 - 5 s Constant Velocity Increasing Velocity

5 - 6 s Constant Velocity Decreasing Velocity

2) For Red and Blue car y₂ = 120 v = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{t_{2}-t_{1}}$ = $\frac{120-0}{6-0}$ = 20 m/s

We get the same velocity for two cars because it is the average velocity of the car at the given interval of time. It is measured for initial and final position.

3) At t = 2s, the cars are the same position, and are moving at the same rate

Position - same

Velocity - same

The position-time graph shares the same spot for two cars.
