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) At what height above Earth’s surface is the energy required to lift a satellite to that height equal to the kinetic energy r
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy at earth surface U_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}

Gravitational Potential Energy at height h is U_2=\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}

Energy required to lift the satellite E_1=U_1-U_2

E_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}

Now Energy required to orbit around the earth

E_2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{orbit}^2=\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}

\Delta E=E_1-E_2

\Delta E=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}

E_1=E_2  (given)

\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}=0

\frac{1}{R_e}-\frac{3}{2(R_e+h)}=0

h=\frac{R_e}{2}

h=3.19\times 10^6\ m

(b)For greater height E_1  is greater than E_2

thus energy to lift the satellite is more than orbiting around earth

Motor oil , with a viscosity of 0 . 250 Ns / m2 , is flowing through a tube that has a radius of 5 . 00 mm and is 25 . 0 cm long
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Explanation:

viscosity, η = 0.250 Ns/m^2

radius, r = 5 mm = 5 x 10^-3 m

length, l = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Pressure, P = 300 kPa = 300000 Pa

According to the Poisuellie's formula

Volume flow per unit time is

V=\frac{\pi \times Pr^{4}}{8\eta l}

V=\frac{3.14 \times 300000\times \left ( 5\times 10^{-3} \right )^{4}}{8\times 0.250\times 0.25}

V = 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Thus, the volume of oil flowing per second is 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s.

An elephant and a mouse would both have zero weight in gravity-free space. If they were moving toward you with the same speed, w
Dovator [93]

The elephant and the mouse having zero weight in a gravity free space will not bump into you at the same effect.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When both are in a gravity free space, the weights are zero, as we know that the\text {weight of the body}=\text {mass of the body} \times \text {acceleration due to gravity}

\text {here, the weight of elephant}=\text {mass of elephant } \times \text {zero gravti} y=zero

\text {similarly,weight of mouse}=\text {mass of mouse } \times \text {zero gravity}=zero

But when they will acquire the speed of same magnitude, say v, their different masses will acquire different momentum, which will make the difference in effect while bumping.  

\text { momentum of elephant }=\text { mass of elephant } \times v  \text { momentum of mouse = mass of mouse } \times v

And as we know \text { mass of elephant }>\text { mass of mouse }  Therefore, effect of impact by elephant will be more than that of mouse . An elephant breaking into you will take you back faster than a mouse in space hits you.
