How does the jet stream affect the movement of air masses

Physics
1 answer:
ryzh [129]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Jet streams are defined as the fast flowing meandering air currents in the atmosphere, they generally flow around ten kilometers from above the Earth's  surface and form at the boundaries of two air masses which have significant temperature difference within them, greater the temperature difference more significant and fast flowing will be the jet streams. Jet streams have a key role in determining the weather of given region as it separates warmer air mass with the colder air mass and hence move the weather system to new areas and sometimes it even stops at any particular place therefore determining or affecting the weather condition of the region. Depending upon seasons and other factors such as position of sun these jet streams also shift their patterns, for example, Weather and climatic condition of United Kingdom is largely affected by the movement of these Jet streams.

How can i prove the conservation of mechanical energy?​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

A spelunker is surveying a cave. She follows a passage that takes her a distance 184 m straight west, then a distance 220 m in a
Sever21 [200]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Define the unit vector i to point in the eastern direction, and the unit vector j to point in the northern direction.

The first distance is 184 m west. It is represented by
d₁ = -184 i

The second distance is 220 m at 30° south of east. It is
d₂ = 220(cos 30° i - sin 30° j) = 190.53 i - 110 j

The third distance is 104 m at 80 east of north. It is
d₃ = 104(sin 80° i + cos 80° j) =  102.42 i + 18.06 j

Let the fourth distance be 
d₄ = a i + b j

Because the traveler ends back at the original position, the vector sum of the distances is zero. It means that each component of the vector sum is zero.

The x-component yields
-184 + 190.53 + 102.42 + a = 0
a = -108.95

The y-component yields
0 - 110 + 18.06 + b = 0
b = 91.94

The magnitude of the fourth displacement is
√[(-108.95)² + 91.94² ] = 142.56 m

The direction is at an angle θ north of west, given by
θ = tan⁻¹ (91.94/108.95) = 40.2°

Answer:
The fourth displacement has a magnitude of 142.56 m. It is about 40° north of west.

A weightlifter lifts a 1250-N barbell 2 m in 3 s.How much power was used to lift the barbell?
Vlad [161]

The power is 833.3 W

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the work done in lifting the barbell, which is equal to the change in gravitational potential energy of the barbell:

W=(mg)h

where

mg = 1250 N is the weight of the barbell

h = 2 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(1250)(2)=2500 J

Now we can calculate the power, which is equal to the work done per unit time:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W = 2500 J is the work done

t = 3 s is the time taken

Substituting,

P=\frac{2500}{3}=833.3 W
