1. By predicting the path of hurricanes, it is possible to warn people in its prospective path in advance. This way lives can be saved. In addition economic cost. associated with its destruction, can be minimized by bracing in advance for the storm along its path.


2. When the sea temperatures increase, there is increased vaporization of water into the atmosphere. This causes a transfer of heat into the atmosphere from the hydrosphere. This causes a drop of pressure in the local region that is one ingredient  associated with the beginning of a hurricane.


3. The more the humidity, it means the more the heat transfer to the atmosphere through condensation. This reduces the pressure proportionally with the amount of humidity. This low pressure is an ingredient for hurricanes. In addition, the higher the humidity the larger the clouds and the larger the thunderstorms and precipitation associated with the hurricane


4. Winds drive hurricanes and determines their vicious force. In the formation of the hurricane, low winds are required to allow the formation of the funnel at the front betwen the cold and warm air masses. Winds blowing in congruence with the hurricane after then make it stronger while those that blow against it weaken it.


5. The answer is; YES, I would expect a hurricane. This is because at 12 0 N and 45 0 W are the open oceans of the Pacific. The average sea temperaturs in summer is between 15 0 and 20 0. At 27.5 0, this increases the humidity at the local region and therefore the tranfer of heat to the atmsphere. The light breeze gives the stability required for the air convection currents to occur forming a funnel front between the air masses.

In 2009, usain bolt of jamaica set a world record of 9.58 s in the 100-m dash. what was his average speed? give your answer in k
geniusboy [140]
<span>Using a calculator, we find that Usain Bolt's average speed over the 100 meter race was about 23.2 miles per hour. Note that some of the numbers in this calculation, namely 100, 3600, and 5280 are exact while 3.28 and 9.63 are only approximate. Since the approximate numbers only have 3 significant digits we only report three digits in the final answer.

A street light is at the top of a 19 foot tall pole. A woman 5.25 feet tall walks towards the pole with a speed of 7ft/sec along
bezimeni [28]
Answer:

The tip of her shadow is moving at the speed of 9.66 ft/sec

Explanation:

The height of the street light = 19 feet

The height of the woman = 5.25 feet

Distance between the woman and the base of the pole, x = 35 ft

The speed of the woman towards the pole, dx/dt = 7ft/sec

The distance from the base of the streetlight to the tip of the woman's shadow = y

The distance from the woman to the tip of her shadow = y - x

The diagram illustrating this description is shown below

Using similar triangle:

\begin{gathered} \frac{19}{5.25}=\text{ }\frac{y}{y-x} \\ 19(y-x)\text{ = 5.25y} \\ 19y-19x\text{ = 5.25y} \\ 19y-5.25y\text{ = 19x} \\ 13.75y\text{ = 19x} \\ y\text{ = }\frac{19}{13.75}x \\ y\text{ = }1.38x \end{gathered}

Find the derivative of both sides with respect to time, t

\begin{gathered} \frac{dy}{dt}=\text{ 1.38}\frac{dx}{dt} \\ \frac{dy}{dt}=\text{ 1.38(7)} \\ \frac{dy}{dt}\text{ = }9.66\text{ ft/sec} \end{gathered}

The tip of her shadow is moving at the speed of 9.66 ft/sec
