A. True
if cold air is replacing warm air it is a cold front and vice versa.

Answer:

The Answer is B) False

Explanation:

The key word there is overtakes.

A weather front is a boundary separating two masses of air of different densities, and is the principal cause of meteorological phenomena outside the tropics.

Air masses create weather as they are moved by winds around the globe. Fronts develop at the boundary where two air masses with different temperatures—and, usually, different humidities—come into contact with each other or in <u>essence collide</u>.

The term <em>front</em> was suggested the creator of the word because the <u>collision </u>of two air masses reminded them of a battlefront during a military operation.

So air masses collide NOT overtake each other in order to form a front.

Cheers!

Which gland controls the workings of other endocrine glands? Thyroid, pituitary, adrenal, or thymus
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer is pituitary gland.


In order to stimulate or inhibit the hormones produced by the endocrine glands, signals are sent to these endocrine glands by the hormones secreted by the pituitary gland.

Consider the following example. When a person is stressed in order to stimulate the production of cortisol, the anterior pituitary lobe will release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).

A horizontal force of 30N is applied to a mass of 10 kg causing it to accelerate. If the coefficient of friction is 0.20 what is
Blizzard [7]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

The force of friction is equal to the product of the vertical force applied by the surface to the object in the coefficient of friction.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

In this question ,

surface vertical force = Weight of the object

Thus ;

svf = ( mass ) × ( gravity acceleration )

_________________________________

If gravity acceleration is 10 :

svf = 10 × 10 = 100 N

So ;

frictional force = 100 × 0.20

frictional force = 20 N

##############################

If gravity acceleration is 9.8 :

svf = 10 × 9.8 = 98 N

So ;

frictional force = 98 × 0.20

frictional force = 19.6 N

Which of the following describes a closed conducting loop through which an electrical current can flow?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
I think the correct answer is the second option. A circuit describes a closed conducting loop through which an electrical current can flow. It is a path that an electrical current could flow. A circuit could be a closed one or an open circuit. A closed circuit would be a circuit where the current could flow continuously. An open circuit would be a type of circuit where the flow current would only go once and stopped at a particular point since the current has nowhere to go. For a circuit to work, an electric supply should be available to supply the electric current.

An object with total mass mtotal = 14.6 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.9 k
zheka24 [161]

Answer: 1) 0. 2) 4.2 Kg. 3) 15.4 m/s 4) 12.9 m/s 5) 0. 6) 3.62 KJ.

Explanation:

1) Assuming that no external forces act during the collision, total momentum must be conserved. As initially the total mass was at rest, so initial momentum is zero, final momentum of all the system must be 0 also.

2) After the explosion, as mass must be conserved also, the sum of the masses of the three pieces must be equal to the original total mass, so we can write the following:

m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = M = 14.6 Kg = 4.9 Kg + 5.5 Kg + m₃

Solving for m₃, we have:

m₃ = 14.6 Kg - 4.9 Kg -5.5 Kg = 4.2 Kg.

3) and 4)

As momentum is a vector, if it is magnitude must be 0, this means that all his components must be 0 too.

So, we can write two equations, one for the x-component, and other for the y-component, as follows:

pₓ = m₁. v₁ₓ + m₂.v₂ₓ + m₃.v₃ₓ = 0

py = m₁.v₁y + m₂. v₂y + m₃. v₃y =0

Replacing by the values, and solving for v₃ₓ and v₃y, we get:

v₃ₓ = 15.4 m/s

v₃y = 12.9 m/s

v = √(15.4)²+(12.9)² = 20.1 m/s

5) As the center of mass must move as if all the mass were concentrated in this point, and we know that the total momentum must be 0, this tells us that the magnitude of the velocity of the center of mass must be 0 too.

6) As initial kinetic energy is 0, as  the mass was at rest, the increase in the kinetic energy is obtained simply adding the kinetic energy of every piece of mass gained after explosion, as follows:

K = K₁ + K₂ + K₃ = 1/2 (m₁ . v₁² + m₂.v₂² + m₃.v₃²)

Replacing by the values, we get:

K= 3.62 KJ
