Use the conditions provided in the previous problem. Atmosphere statically stable at the base of the mountain, where pressure =

1000 hPa, potential temperature lapse rate of 3.1◦C per 50 hPa. Atmosphere statically unstable at the top, where pressure = 850 hPa, potential temperature lapse rate of -0.61◦C per 50 hPa. Please find the change in relative vorticity of the column of air.

Answer:

change in relative vorticity 0.0590

Explanation:

Given data

pressure = 1000 hPa

temperature lapse rate q1 = 3.1◦C per 50 hPa

pressure = 850 hPa

temperature lapse rate q2= -0.61◦C per 50 hPa

to find out

change in relative vorticity

solution

we will apply here formula that is

N = (g / potential temperature ) × (potential vertical temperature) × exp^1/2 ............................1

here we know g = 9.8 m/s

and q1 = potential temperature=3.3 degree celsius

potential vertical temperature gradient = 3.1 - 0.61 / 1000 -850

potential vertical temperature gradient = 0.0166 degree celsius/hpa

so

N = 9.8 / 2.75 × 0.0166 × exp^1/2

N = 0.0590

5. An acrobat, starting from rest, swings freely on a trapeze of

34kurt

The energy conservation and trigonometry we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the acrobat are;

a) The maximum speed is v = 4.89 m / s

b) The maximum height is h = 1.22 m

The energy conservation is one of the most fundamental principles of physics, stable that if there are no friction forces the mechanistic energy remains constant. Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy plus the potential energies.

Em = K + U

Let's write the energy in two points.

Starting point. Highest part of the oscillation

Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lower part of the movement

$Em_f$ = K = ½ m v²

Energy is conserved.

Emo = $Em_f$

m g h = ½ m v²

v² = 2 gh

Let's use trigonometry to find the height, see attached.

h = L - L cos θ

h = L (1- cos θ)

They indicate that the initial angle is tea = 48º and the length is L = 3.7 m, let's calculate.

h = 3.7 (1- cos 48)

h = 1.22 m

this is the maximum height of the movement.

Let's calculate the velocity.

$v= \sqrt{2 \ 9.8 \ 1.22}$

v = 4.89 m / s

In conclusion using the conservation of energy and trigonometry we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the acrobat are;

a) The maximum speed is v = 4.89 m / s

b) The maximum height is h = 1.22 m

What is the change in air pressure over a given distance called?.

emmainna [20.7K]

The change in pressure measured across a given distance called a Pressure Gradient. The pressure gradient creates a net force that is directed from higher to lower pressure and is called the Pressure Gradient Force. ... As air increases in velocity, it is deflected by the Coriolis Force.

Two point charges are on the y-axis. A 3.0 µC charge is located at y = 1.15 cm, and a -2.28 µC charge is located at y = -2.00 cm

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Total electric potential, $V=1.32\times 10^6\ volts$

Explanation:

It is given that,

First charge, $q_1=3\ \mu C=3\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Second charge, $q_2=-2.28\ \mu C=-2.28\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance of first charge from origin, $r_1=1.15\ cm=0.0115\ m$

Distance of second charge from origin, $r_2=2\ cm=0.02\ m$

We need to find the total electric potential at the origin. The electric potential at the origin is given by :

$V=\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}+\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}$

$V=k(\dfrac{q_1}{r_1}+\dfrac{q_2}{r_2})$

$V=9\times 10^9(\dfrac{3\times 10^{-6}}{0.0115}+\dfrac{-2.28\times 10^{-6}}{0.02})$

V = 1321826.08 V

or

$V=1.32\times 10^6\ volts$

So, the total electric potential at the origin is $1.32\times 10^6\ volts$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain how magnets have an attractive force and repulsive force

shusha [124]

The force between two parallel wires carrying currents in the same direction is attractive. It is repulsive if the currents are in opposite directions.
