7 0

Answer:

causes surface currents to move in circular paths  

Explanation:

Coriolis force is a pseudo force that acts on an object which is in motion in a rotating frame of reference. The Coriolis effect causes the winds to move in circular path due to rotation of Earth. In Northern hemisphere, the surface currents rotate counterclockwise and in southern hemisphere, the currents rotate clockwise.

A hockey puck with mass 0.3 kg is shot across an ice-covered pond. Before the hockey puck was hit, the puck was at rest. After t
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The net friction force is 8.01 N

Explanation:

Net friction force = mass of hockey puck × acceleration

From the equations of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v = 40 m/s

u = 0 m/s (puck was initially at rest)

s = 30 m

40^2 = 0^2 + 2×a×30

60a = 1600

a = 1600/60 = 26.7 m/s^2

The acceleration of the puck is 26.7 m/s^2

Net friction force = 0.3 × 26.7 = 8.01 N

You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. the rock passes you on its way down,
maw [93]
V^2=u^2 +2aS
U is found first by considering that first 8 secs and using v=u+at. {different v and u though}

V=-u+gt.
Magnitude of u = magnitude of v if there is no resistance ( because the conservation of energy says the k. E. must be the same when it passes you as when it left your hand).... up is negative here, down is positive.
V+v=gt
2v= g x 8
V=4xg.= the initial velocity for the next calculation
V^2=(4g)^2+(2xgx21)

So v can be calculated.
