The answer to the question would be the second choice: <span>The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number. It can be based upon in a Cartesian coordinate system wherein the coordinate is located in the second quadrant. </span>

Answer:

The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

Explanation:

For this problem, we take the standard Cartesian axis, so that:

- along the vertical axis, the north direction is positive, and the south direction is negative

- along the horizontal axis, the east direction is positive, and the west direction is negative

The boat travels in a direction which is 25° west of north. This means that its vertical component is in the north direction, while the horizontal component is in the west direction. Since north = positive and west = negative, the correct option is

The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

During a hurricane, the atmospheric pressure inside a house may blow off the roof because of the reduced pressure outside. If ai
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

817.5 Pa

Explanation:

From Bernoulli's equation, considering thst there is no height difference then

P1+½d(v1)²=P2+½d(v2)²

P1-P2=½d(v2²-v1²)

∆P=½d(v2²-v1²)

Where P represent pressure, d is density and v is velocity. Subscripts 1 and 2 represent inside and outside. ∆P is tge change in pressure

Given the speed at roof top as 128 km/h, we convert it to m/s as follows

128*1000/3600=35.555555555555=35.56 m/s

Velocity at the bottom of roof is 0 m/s

Density is given as 1.293 kg/m³

∆P=½*1.293*(35.56²-0)=817.5 Pa

Air is warmed and moisten as it moves through both the mouth and nasal passages.
Alexxx [7]

Well, in my own personal case, I can actually move the air in either
direction through both of those.

When I move the air inward from the outside, it's warmed and moistened.

When I move it outward from the inside, it's not.

Karen claps her hand and hears the echo from
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

89 m

Explanation:

Applying

v = 2d/t................... Equation 1

Where v = velocity of sound in air, d = distance of the wall from Karen, t = time taken to hear the echo.

make d the subject of equation 1

d = vt/2..................... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.519 s

Substitute these values into equation 2

d = (343×0.519)/2

d = 89.01 m.

d ≈ 89 m
