A cold air mass comes in under a warm air  mass

In meteorology (the study of weather), a "front" is the leading edge
of an air mass, that's moving in and replacing a mass of a different
kind of air.  Like warm moving in and replacing cold, or cold moving
in and replacing warm.

Remember that cold air is heavier than warm air.  So whenever a
warm or cold front moves in, the cold air always stays low and the 
warm air always lifts up over it.

With that little bit of an explanation, you can see that choice-D is
the only choice that makes sense.

White raven [17]

Answer:

a) 51.8 cm³

b) kg/m³ is a dimension of density (mass/volume). The regular unitys for volume are m³, cm³, L, gallons.

Explanation:

a) The density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³. When put in water, the piece of gold will occupy a volume, so that the volume of water will be displaced. To know the volume, we must divide the mass for the density (mass must be in grams because of the units of the density)

V = 1000/19.3

V = 51.8 cm³

The Earth’s radius is 6378.1 kilometers. If you were standing at the equator, you are essentially undergoing uniform circular mo
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

b. 84 minutes

Explanation:

a_c=g = Centripetal acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of Earth = 6378.1 km

v = Velocity

Centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{a_cr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9.81\times 6378100}\\\Rightarrow v=7910.06706\ m/s

Time period is given by

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v60}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{2\pi 6378.1\times 10^3}{7910.06706\times 60}\\\Rightarrow T=84.43835\ minutes

The time period of Earth’s rotation would be 84.43835 minutes
