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.

grin007 [14]

Answer:

420m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time  = 5minutes

Average speed  = 1.4m/s

Unknown:

Distance covered  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

 Mathematically;

              Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

    Distance  = speed x time

 

Insert the parameters and solve;

   Convert the time to seconds;

              1 minute = 60s

               5 minute = 5  x 60 = 300s

So,

   Insert the parameters and find the distance;

     Distance  = 300 x 1.4  = 420m

An automobile has a mass of 1200 kg. what is its kinetic energy, in kj, relative to the road when traveling at a velocity of 50
snow_lady [41]
One thing you should notice. It is kind of weird. Ke has no direction so that fact that it has velocities associated with it does not matter. It becomes a scaler (something measured by amount alone).

General Formula
Ke = 1/2 m v^2
Formula for this problem
Ke = 1/2 m (v2)^2 - 1/2 m (v1)^2

Givens
m = 1200 kg
v2 = 100 km/hr = 100 km/h * [1 hour / 3600 sec] * [1000 m/ 1km] = 27.8 m/s
v1 = 50 km / hr = 13.9 m/s

Substitution and work.
================
delta Ke = 1/2 1200 (27.8)^2 - 1/2 1200 (13.9)^2
delta Ke = 463704 - 115926
delta Ke = 34778 Joules
delta Ke = 34.8 kJ

The change is 34.8 kJ which means that the vehicle gains 34.8 kJ
