Local winds blow over certain parts of the Earth, but global winds blow around the globe as the name 'global' suggests.
Local winds like the Sirocco, Harmattan, leveche, Nor'westers, Mistral, Chinook, Foehn can be found only in certain regions. For example, Sirocco, Harmattan, are seasonal winds blowing across Northern Africa and the Leveche blows over Southern Spain. The Chinook are warm winds flowing down the leeward side of the Rocky Mountains. The Mistral is a chilly wind which blow in the Mediterranean regions during winter.
The Trade winds, Mid Latitude Westerlies and Polar Easterlies are examples of global winds.
The Trade Winds are found between the 30 degrees S and N latitudes. There are the North-East Trades and the South-East Trades, both converging at the the Equator.
The Westerlies are a deep wind system found in the Temperate latitudes blowing from the West towards the East.
The Polar Easterlies blow from the Polar regions towards the Mid-latitudes.

Explanation:
In a simple pendulum with no friction, mechanical energy is conserved. Total mechanical energy is a combination of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy. As the pendulum swings back and forth, there is a constant exchange between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy
A buffer is usually composed of either:
- a weak base combined with its conjugate acid, or
- a weak acid combined with its conjugate base
Now, examining each of the choices:
1- KOH and NH3: since they are both bases, thus this mixture is not a buffer
2- HBr and NaCl: since HBr is a strong acid while NaCl is the salt of another different acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
3- HCl and HBr: these are both considered to be strong acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
4- HCHO2 and NaCHO2: as for HCH02, it is considered a weak base while NaCHO2 is considered its conjugate base, thus this mixture is a buffer
Answer:
Use the activity formula,
T1/2 = 4.468 x 10^9 yr x 365 x 24 x 3600 = 1.409 x 10^17 sec
l = ln(2)/T1/2 = ln(2)/1.409 x 10^17 = 4.91932697 x 10^-18 s-1
DN/Dt = lN, 265 = 4.91932697 x 10^-18 x N
<u><em>N = 5.38 x 10^19 nuclei</em></u>
