What accounts for the two precipitation peaks in mbandaka?

Physics
1 answer:
slava [35]2 years ago
7 0

The two precipitation peaks in Mbandaka during March to April and September to November is due to the intertropical convergence zone.

Intertropical convergence zone is a narrow zone located near the equator. It is where the northern and southern air masses intersect which results to low atmospheric pressure. Due to the intertropical convergence zone’s meeting of air masses, often times the air pressure are lower which will results to colder air, or even rainfall during the period of March to April, and most especially September to November in Mbandaka.

<span>Since Mbandaka is located at the cented of Tumba-Ngiri-Maindombe area, which is named as a Wetland of International importance, there is really a bigger chance that this place experience above 60mm precipitation in a year, temperatures averaging from 23 – 26 degrees Celsius.</span>

3. What is the gravitational force between a 70 kg physics student and her 1 kg textbook, at a distance of 1 meter? (This number
Rina8888 [55]

ANSWER

\begin{equation*} 4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{equation*}

EXPLANATION

Parameters given:

Mass of the student, M = 70 kg

Mass of the textbook, m = 1 kg

Distance, r = 1 m

To find the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook, apply the formula for gravitational force:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where G = gravitational constant

Therefore, the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook is:

\begin{gathered} F=\frac{6.67430*10^{-11}*70*1}{1^2} \\  \\ F=4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{gathered}

That is the answer.

Assume that a lightning bolt can be modeled as a long, straight line of current. If 16 C of charge passes by a point in 1.50 x 1
Reptile [31]

Answer:

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

Explanation:

To solve the problem, the concepts related to the magnetic field and the current produced in a lightning bolt are necessary.

The current is defined by the load due to time, that is to say

I= \frac{q}{t}

Where,

q= Charge

t = time

So the current can be expressed as:

I = \frac{16}{1.5*10^{-3}}

I = 10666.67A

Once the current is found it is now possible to find the magnetic field, as this is given by the equation,

B =\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{I}{r}

Where,

\mu_0 =Permeability Constant

I= Current

r= radius

Replacing the values we have

B=\frac{4\pi*10^{-7}}{2\pi}(\frac{10666.67}{27})

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

Determine which heat transfers below are due to the process of conduction. I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns y
Rudik [331]

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

The road is in direct contact with your skin. Thermal energy from the road will transfer to the bottom of your feet, then to the rest of your body. This is an example of conduction.


II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

Just like in the previous example, the hot leather is in direct contact with your skin (I guess if you're going to drive naked). Thermal energy from the leather will transfe to your skin, then to the rest of your body. This is also conduction.


III) A flame heats the air inside a hot air balloon and the balloon rises.

The flame heats air directly at the bottom of the balloon. The warm air expands and becomes less dense. This will rise and let the unheated, denser air in the balloon fall down toward the flame. This is an example of the convection cycle.


IV) A boy sits to the side of a campfire. He is 10 feet away, but still feels warm.

The campfire heats air directly nearby. The warm air expands and moves away from the fire in all directions, leaving behind unheated, denser air to be heated up. Some of the warm air reaches the boy. This is another example of convection.


The answer is A) 1 and 2.
