How does a radiosonde can be used to predict future weather conditions in a location?

1 answer:

3 0

A radiosonde measures and collects various data such as, pressure, altitude, geographical position (latitude/longitude), temperature, relative humidity, wind (both wind speed and wind direction), cosmic ray readings at high altitude, and many other things. You can then analyze all this data and combine it to see what the weather conditions will be possibly be like.

Answer:

12.3 seconds

Explanation:

time in air = 2(v)/g

2(100sin(37))/9.8

=12.28 seconds

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .

maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

$\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}$

$\frac{GM}{r} = v^2$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}$
