Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Coriolis force is caused because the Earth rotates at a different linear velocity in the Equator compared to that in the North and South poles. This force makes objects that are not fixed to the ground move in different directions. For example, the hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere spin counterclockwise and when travelling some distance they move to the right. While in the Southern Hemisphere they spin clockwise and move to the left. The effect of the Corioli force is extremely important on Earth because it determines the water and air currents, for example. Therefore, it is not an insignificant force.

Thought, it is an apparent force because it is not a force directly applied to the air and water, but a force produced by the side effect of the rotation of the Earth.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Hello!

We can observe the "Coriolis Force" in a system that experiences a rotational movement, when a body is in motion with respect to said system, which is taken as a reference parameter. The "effect" consists on a relative acceleration experienced by the body in the rotating system.

The Coriolis Force is named "apparent force" or "effect", because it is not a real force, since there is nothing to produce it. Coriolis Force is produced in the studied body because the observation system is rotating.

What is (2n-9)-(-2.4n+4)
Neko [114]

Answer:

 22n - 65

 ————————

    5  

Explanation:

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "2.4" was replaced by "(24/10)".

STEP

1

:

           12

Simplify   ——

           5  

Equation at the end of step

1

:

                     12          

 (2n - 9) -  ((0 -  (—— • n)) +  4)

                     5            

STEP

2

:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

2.1   Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

        4     4 • 5

   4 =  —  =  —————

        1       5  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-12n + 4 • 5     20 - 12n

————————————  =  ————————

     5              5    

Equation at the end of step

2

:

             (20 - 12n)

 (2n - 9) -  ——————————

                 5      

STEP

3

:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  5  as the denominator :

              2n - 9     (2n - 9) • 5

    2n - 9 =  ——————  =  ————————————

                1             5      

STEP

4

:

Pulling out like terms :

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  20 - 12n  =   -4 • (3n - 5)  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

(2n-9) • 5 - (-4 • (3n-5))     22n - 65

——————————————————————————  =  ————————

            5                     5    

Final result :

 22n - 65

 ————————

    5

5. A land breeze usually occurs :
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Sea breezes occur during hot, summer days because of the unequal heating rates of land and water. During the day, the land surface heats up faster than the water surface. Therefore, the air above the land is warmer than the air above the ocean. Now, recall that warmer air is lighter than cooler air. As a result, warm air rises. Therefore, the warmer air over the land surface is rising. As the warm air over the land is rising, the cooler air over the ocean is flowing over the land surface to replace the rising warm air. This is the sea breeze and can be seen at the top of the following image. The bottom of the following image illustrates the land breeze that occurs at night. Recall that the land surface cools quicker than the water surface at night. Therefore, the warmer air over the ocean is buoyant and is rising. The denser cool air over the land is flowing offshore to replenish the buoyant warm air and is called a land breeze.
