Answer:

A positive lifted index means that a parcel of air, if lifted, would be COLDER than the surrounding air at 500mb. The air is, therefore, stable and would resist vertical motion. Large positive values (+8) would normally indicate very stable air.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.

noname [10]

Question:

The water molecules now in your body were once part of a molecular cloud. Only about onemillionth of the mass of a molecular cloud is in the form of water molecules, and the mass density of such a cloud is roughly 2.0×10−21 g/cm^3.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.

Answer:

The volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body is 1.4×10²⁵ cm³

Explanation:

Here, we have mass density of cloud = 2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3

Density = Mass/Volume

Volume = Mass/Density = If the mass is 40 kg and the body is made up of 70% by mass of water, we have

28 kg water = 28000 g

Therefore the Volume = 28 kg/ 2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3 = 1.4×10¹⁹ m³ = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

Therefore, the volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c

GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>

Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

$N_x=86.62N$

We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

$N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\$

To find Ny, we need to find the tension T.
For this, we can equate the net horizontal force.

$F_H=N_x=Tcos59\\\\T=\frac{F_H}{cos59} =\frac{86.62}{0.51}= 169.84N$

Thus, the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge become,

$N_y= (40*9.8)-(169.8*sin59)=246.4N$

Thus, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,

$N=\sqrt{N_x^2+N_y^2} =\sqrt{(86.62)^2+(246.4)^2}=261.12N$

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge is 261.12N.
