It was a calm and cloudy day in a Utah town located near mountains. Suddenly the clouds grew dark and heavy, and a storm covered

the town in a blanket of snow. Explain with details what would cause the weather to change suddenly like this?

Phantasy [73]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

When there is a sudden temperature change after a calm and cloudy weather then it is most probably due to the low pressure at the site. When there develops a low pressure at a site then to counter balance it the air from the high pressure area moves to the low pressure area and the moisture in the air also gets carried along to the mountainous cold region.

When the moist air flows over a cold region then the moisture of the air condenses and the atmosphere becomes cloudy and foggy with large quantity of precipitation.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

a = 1 m/s²  and

Explanation:

The first two parts can be seen in attachment

We use Newton's second law on each axis

Y axis

      Ty - W = 0        

      Ty = w

X axis

     Tx = m a

With trigonometry we find the components of tension

    Sin θ = Ty / T

    Ty = T sin θ

    Cos θ = Tx / T

    Tx = T cos θ

We calculate the acceleration with kinematics

   Vf = Vo + a t

   a = (Vf -Vo) / t

   a = (20 -10) / 10

   a = 1 m/s²

We substitute in Newton's equations

     

  T Sin θ = mg

  T cos θ = ma

We divide the two equations

  Tan θ = g / a

  θ = tan⁻¹ (g / a)

  θ = tan⁻¹ (9.8 / 1)

  θ = 84º

We see that in the expression of the angle the mass does not appear therefore you should not change the angle

what occurs when force is applied over a certain distance and motion is in the same direction as the force?
faltersainse [42]

An object in motion will continue to move in the same direction and with the same speed unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. states that forces occur as equal and opposite pairs. The strength of the force is related to the mass of the objects and the distance between them.

Red light of wavelength 633 nm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.400mm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed
kogti [31]

Answer:

a)y_{first}=5.3mm

b)y_{second}=10.6-5.3 =5.3 mm  

Explanation:

a)

The width of the central bright in this diffraction pattern is given by:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a} when m is a natural number.

here:

  • m is 1 (to find the central bright fringe)                
  • D is the distance from the slit to the screen
  • a is the slit wide
  • λ is the wavelength

So we have:

y_{first}=\frac{633*10^{9}*3.35}{0.0004}

y_{first}=5.3mm

b)

Now, if we do m=2 we can find the distance to the second minima.

y_{2}=\frac{2*633*10^{9}*3.35}{0.0004}

y_{2}=10.6 mm

Now we need to subtract these distance, to get the width of the first bright fringe :

y_{second}=10.6-5.3 =5.3 mm    

I hope it heps you!

When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to a larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some p
Savatey [412]

Answer:

c. The coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of static friction

Explanation:

When the box finally does break loose. Then the component of the box weight which is parallel to the board weight parallel component, is equal to the \mu_gn.

w_{box}=\mu_gn

For the box to acce;erate thee must be non-zero net force acting on the box parallel to the board. Or we can say,

w_1>f_g\\w_1>\mu_gn

Therefore the force of kinetic friction must be less than the force of static friction. Thus,

\mu_g
