Rain that tends to fall in bands on earth is usually caused by : Warm, moist air rising and cooling
First, the water on earth evaporate due to sun's heat and formed cloud. Later on, this water condensed and fall again on the earth. Completing the water cycle

The given question is incomplete as the options are missing. The options are as follows-

A.jet streams collecting moisture

B.warm, moist air rising and cooling

C.cool, wet air sinking and then falling as rain

D.polar cells transporting water vapor from ice at the poles

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

In the region of low pressure, the hot and less dense air rises up forming convection cells. As this hot moisture containing air moves towards the upper atmosphere, it cools due to the lowering of the temperature. This results in the condensation process forming clouds. This later forms rainfall and when the rain falls on the ground, it does not fall straight, rather it falls at an angle in bands on the surface of the earth, and this is because of the wind that blows during the time of rainfall.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

An elastic conducting material is stretched into a circular loop of 9.65 cm radius. It is placed with its plane perpendicular to

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The induced emf in the coil is 0.522 volts.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the circular loop, r = 9.65 cm

It is placed with its plane perpendicular to a uniform 1.14 T magnetic field.

The radius of the loop starts to shrink at an instantaneous rate of 75.6 cm/s , $\dfrac{dr}{dt}=-0.756\ m/s$

Due to the shrinking of radius of the loop, an emf induced in it. It is given by :

$\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\dfrac{-d(BA)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=B\dfrac{-d(\pi r^2)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=2\pi rB\dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=2\pi \times 9.65\times 10^{-2}\times 1.14\times 0.756\\\\\epsilon=0.522\ V$
