Bright white shadings on infrared images indicate cloud tops that have relatively ________ temperatures

1 answer:

7 0

Infrared is created by detecting the produced radiation coming off of clouds. The temperature of the cloud will define the wavelength of radiation produced from the cloud. The benefit of the infrared imagery is that can be used day and night to conclude the temperature of the cloud tops and earth surface structures and to get the general idea of how clouds are. Based on the general guidelines to define cloud features, if the cloud is bright white on infrared then it is a high cloud or has a cloud top that is developed high into the troposphere. In this way infrared images actually display patterns of temperature on a gray scale such that at one extreme dark gray is warm and at the other extreme bright white is cold. A color scale is used to portray temperature and some improved infrared images show two or more gray scale sequences. High cold clouds are brighter white than low warm clouds.

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.25 kg to a friend standing in front of him

juin [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of book =1.25 kg

Combined mass = 112 kg

Velocity of book = 3.61 m/s

Angle = 31°

We need to calculate the magnitude of the velocity of the student has after throwing the book

Using conservation of momentum along horizontal direction

$m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta= m_{c}v_{c}$

$v_{s}=\dfrac{m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta}{m_{c}}$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{c}=\dfrac{1.25\times3.61\times\cos31}{112}$

$v_{c}=0.0345\ m/s$

Hence, The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

Suppose that you are taking a course in geometry. You are trying to determine whether two geometric shapes are identical, so you

Nataly_w [17]

Explanation:

Yes, in order to determine whether two geometric figures are identical or not we tend to rotate one of the figure clockwise or anti clock wise mentally. However, in clockwise rotation larger the angel more will be the time taken for instance, it will take longer to rotate 120° than to rotate 40°. Whereas in anti clockwise ration it will be vice versa.
