What causes winds to form?

Physics

Wind is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds of various speeds. On a rotating planet, air will also be deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.

On a horizontal frictionless surface, a small block with mass 0.200 kg has a collision with a block of mass 0.400 kg. Immediatel
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:48.2 Joules

Explanation:

Given

two masses of 0.2 kg and 0.4 kg collide with each other

after collision 0.2 kg deflect 30 north of east and 0.4 kg deflects 53.1 south of east

Velocity of 0.2 kg mass is

v_{0.2}=12\cos (30)\hat{i}+12\sin (30)\hat{j}

|v_{0.2}|=11.99 m/s\approx 12 m/s

Velocity of 0.4 kg mass

v_{0.4}=13\cos (53.1)\hat{i}-12\sin (53.1)\hat{j}

|v_{0.4}|=12.99 m/s\approx 13 m/s

Thus total Kinetic energy =\frac{0.2\times 12^2}{2}+\frac{0.4\times 13^2}{2}

Kinetic energy=48.2 J
