Leviafan [203]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Latitude

Elevation

Prevailing winds

Near by water body.

Explanation:

There are many factors which affects climate of a region, some of them are latitude, elevation, prevailing wind, and nearby water body. If elevation of a place is high such as places on young mountains they are cold whereas places closer to ocean or sea have normal climate through out the year. If a place is closer to pole it have very log days and nights.

Answer:

These include latitude, elevation, nearby water, ocean currents, topography, vegetation, and prevailing winds. The global climate system and any changes that occur within it also influence local climate.

Which of these surface features are formed because of the heating of groundwater?
Tju [1.3M]
The correct option is C.
Hot springs and geysers are formed as a result of been heated up by heat from the interior of the earth. This type of heat is called geothermal heat. A hot spring refers to a spring that is produced as a result of geothermally heated water. Hot springs usually have very high temperature. Geysers is a form of hot spring and it refers to a pool of water that has seeped through a opening in the earth surface.

Two charges are located in the x-y plane. If q1=-4.55 nC and is located at x=0.00 m, y=0.680 m and the second charge has magnitu
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Ex= -23.8 N/C  Ey = 74.3 N/C

Explanation:

As the  electric force is linear, and the electric field, by definition, is just this electric force per unit charge, we can use the superposition principle to get the electric field produced by both charges at any point, as the other charge were not present.

So, we can first the field due to q1, as follows:

Due  to q₁ is negative, and located on the y axis, the field due to this charge will be pointing upward, (like the attractive force between q1 and the positive test charge that gives the direction to the field), as follows:

E₁ = k*(4.55 nC) / r₁²

If we choose the upward direction as the positive one (+y), we can find both components of E₁ as follows:

E₁ₓ = 0   E₁y = 9*10⁹*4.55*10⁻⁹ / (0.68)²m² = 88.6 N/C (1)

For the field due to q₂, we need first to get the distance along a straight line, between q2 and the origin.

It will be just the pythagorean distance between the points located at the coordinates (1.00, 0.600 m) and (0,0), as follows:

r₂² = 1²m² + (0.6)²m² = 1.36 m²

The magnitude of the electric field due to  q2 can be found as follows:

E₂ = k*q₂ / r₂² = 9*10⁹*(4.2)*10⁹ / 1.36 = 27.8 N/C (2)

Due to q2 is positive, the force on the positive test charge will be repulsive, so E₂ will point away from q2, to the left and downwards.

In order to get the x and y components of E₂, we need to get the projections of E₂ over the x and y axis, as follows:

E₂ₓ = E₂* cosθ, E₂y = E₂*sin θ

the  cosine of  θ, is just, by definition, the opposite  of x/r₂:

⇒ cos θ =- (1.00 m / √1.36 m²) =- (1.00 / 1.17) = -0.855

By the same token, sin θ can be obtained as follows:

sin θ = - (0.6 m / 1.17 m) = -0.513

⇒E₂ₓ = 27.8 N/C * (-0.855) = -23.8 N/C (pointing to the left) (3)

⇒E₂y = 27.8 N/C * (-0.513) = -14.3 N/C (pointing downward) (4)

The total x and y components due to both charges are just the sum of the components of Ex and Ey:

Ex = E₁ₓ + E₂ₓ = 0 + (-23.8 N/C) = -23.8 N/C

From (1) and (4), we can get Ey:

Ey = E₁y + E₂y =  88.6 N/C + (-14.3 N/C) =74.3 N/C
