Winds blowing toward the east are called easterlies. True or False

Physics
1 answer:
eimsori [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: False

Explanation:

Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from.  Hence, a wind that <em>"blows towards the east"</em>, logically should <u>come from the west </u>and is called a <em>"west wind"</em>.

In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the <em>Westerlies</em>, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.

Therefore, the statement is false.

The electric field 1.5 cm from a very small charged object points toward the object with a magnitude of 180,000 N/C. What is the
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

q = 4.5 nC

Explanation:

given,

electric field of small charged object, E = 180000 N/C

distance between them, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

using equation of electric field

E = \dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q is the charge of the object

q= \dfrac{Er^2}{k}

now,

q= \dfrac{180000\times 0.015^2}{9\times 10^9}

      q = 4.5 x 10⁻⁹ C

      q = 4.5 nC

the charge on the object is equal to 4.5 nC
