How is precipitation related to high- and low-pressure air

Physics
1 answer:
pentagon [3]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The high-pressure region refers to the condition where the cold and dense air sinks and makes the atmosphere stable, forming clear sky or presence of low clouds in the sky.

On the other hand, the low-pressure region refers to the condition where the hot and less dense air rises upward, and with the presence of a sufficient amount of water content in the air, it gives rise t the formation of the clouds and eventually leads to the occurrence of rainfall.

This is how the process of precipitation is related to the high and the low-pressure air, where the low-pressure zone results in precipitation and high-pressure zone results in a clear sky.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

D. The moon is closer to Earth than the sun.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variate with the distance:

   

F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}}  (1)                            

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance

For example, see the image below, point A is closer to the moon than point b and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

The Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the moon over the earth making high tides higher and low tides lower.  

However, even when the sun is more massive than the moon, it is farther away from the Earth than the moon. So, it is clear by equation 1 that the moon's gravity has a greater effect on Earth's oceans than the sun's gravity.

Velocity and acceleration are both vectors; they have a direction. What is thedirection of the velocity and acceleration vectors
just olya [345]

Answer:

d. Both A & C

Explanation:

- The velocity of the ball is a vector, whose magnitude indicates its rate of change of position, and it has a direction. In this case, the ball is moving upward, therefore the direction of motion is upward, so the direction of the velocity is upward as well.

- The acceleration of the ball is a vector, whose magnitude indicates the rate of change of the velocity. The direction of the acceleration is:

-- positive if the the magnitude of the velocity is increasing

-- negative if the magnitude of the velocity is decreasing

For a ball thrown upward, the acceleration is given by the acceleration of gravity, g=9.8 m/s^2. This acceleration points downward, and it is constant during the entire motion. In particular, it does not change direction, as it is always directed downward. Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is downward.

So, the correct answer is

d.Both A & C

Since A and C are both true:

a.The velocity vector is directed upward.

c.The acceleration is directed downward.

What is solar made from
Eduardwww [97]

Solar cells are made out of silicon wafers. These are made out of the element silicon, a hard and brittle crystalline solid that is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen. If you're at the beach and see shiny black specks in the sand, that's silicon.

Hope this helps!

A basketball player standing under the hoop shoots the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v0Part (a) What is the maxim
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Maximum height will be h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity through which basketball is thrown =v_0

Acceleration due to gravity =g\  m/sec^2

At maximum height velocity will be zero

So final velocity v = 0 m /sec

According to third equation of motion v^2=u^2+2gh

0^2=v_0^2-2gh ( Negative sign is due to upward acceleration )

h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}

How is sound wave produced?​
kramer

Answer:

Sound is produced when an object vibrates, creating a pressure wave.

Explanation:

This pressure wave causes particles in the surrounding medium (air, water, or solid) to have vibrational motion. ... The human ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles vibrate small parts within the ear.
