Answer:

Higher, Windward side, Condenses

Explanation:

The Windward side refers to that side of a mountain that faces the direction from which the wind is blowing. In this direction, the moisture containing hot air blowing from a distant place moves upward and strikes the mountain at a greater height, where the air mass is thin and the temperature is relatively cold. As the temperature and pressure decrease with altitude, the hot uprising air cools and gradually condenses. This results in the occurrence of high precipitation over this region i.e. the windward side of the mountain.

Therefore, the precipitation is always higher on the windward side of a mountain as the hot air undergoes condensation at greater height as it rises upward.

parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.070 m square, spaced 6.3 mm apart. What must the potential difference bet
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

V = 576 V

Explanation:

Given:

- The area of the two plates A = 0.070 m^2

- The space between the two plates d = 6.3 mm

- Te energy density u = 0.037 J /m^3

Find:

- What must the potential difference between the plates V?

Solution:

- The energy density of the capacitor with capacitance C and potential difference V is given as:

                               u = 0.5*ε*E^2

- Where the Electric field strength E between capacitor plates is given by:

                               E = V / d

Hence,

                               u = 0.5*ε*(V/d)^2

Where, ε = 8.854 * 10^-12

                               V^2 = 2*u*d^2 / ε

                               V = d*sqrt ( 2*u / ε )

Plug in values:

                               V = 0.0063*sqrt ( 2 * 0.037 / (8.854 * 10^-12) )

                               V = 576 V

A block suspended from a spring is oscillating vertically with a frequency of 4 Hz and an amplitude of 7 cm. A very small rock i
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

v = - 1,715 m / s ,   x = 0.0156 m

Explanation:

This is an oscillatory movement exercise, which is described by the expression

          x = A cos (wt + Ф)

we can assume that the block is released from its maximum elongation, so the phase constant (Ф) is zero

As we are told that the stone does not affect the movement of the spring mass system, the amplitude and angular velocity do not change, in the upward movement the stone is attached to the mass, but in the downward movement the mass has an acceleration greater than g leave the stone behind, let's look for time, for this we use the definition of speed and acceleration

         v = dx / dt

         v = - A w sin wt

          a = - Aw² cos wt

         a = -g

         -g = - Aw² cos wt

          wt = cos⁻¹ (g / Aw²)

          t = 1 / w cos⁻¹ (g / Aw²)

       

angular velocity and frequency are related

        w = 2π f

        w = 2π 4

         w = 8π   rad / s

remember that the angles are in radians

          t = 1 / 8π cos⁻¹ (9.8 / (0.07 64π²))

          t = 0.039789 1.3473

          t = 0.0536 s

let's find the speed for this time

          v = - A w sin wt

          v = - 0.07 8π sin (8π 0.0536)

          v = - 1,715 m / s

the distance is

           x = A cos wt

           x = 0.07 cos (8π 0.0536)

           x = 0.0156 m

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

w = √ 1 / CL

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

Explanation:

This problem refers to electrical circuits, the circuits where this phenomenon occurs are series RLC circuits, where the resistor, the capacitor and the inductance are placed in series.

In these circuits the impedance is

             X = √ (R² +  (X_{C} -X_{L})² )

where Xc and XL is the capacitive and inductive impedance, respectively

            X_{C} = 1 / wC

           X_{L} = wL

From this expression we can see that for the resonance frequency

           X_{C} = X_{L}

the impedance of the circuit is minimal, therefore the current and voltage are maximum and an increase in signal intensity is observed.

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

               V = IR

Since the contribution of the two other components is canceled, this occurs for

                X_{C} = X_{L}

                1 / wC = w L

                w = √ 1 / CL
