labwork [276]3 years ago

Answer:

Option D

The Coriolis effect works at right angles to the direction of airflow

Explanation:

At the equator, Coriolis effect is negligible, basically zero while it's strongest at the poles (to imply statement B is wrong). Moreover, Coriolis effect is affected by the speed of wind and it also affects the speed of wind since when the wind speed decreases, due to friction for example, the Coriolis effect is also reduces.

I will give brainliest to whoever answers this in less than 10 minutes.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

D) No, because of the way work is defined

Explanation:

There is no motion in the direction of the force, then no work is done by that force. ... But the work done on the box is zero since by moving in a straight line at constant speed, its energy is remaining the same.

Light waves are electromagnetic waves that travel at 3.00 Light waves are electromagnetic waves that travel 108 m/s. The eye is

svlad2 [7]

(a) $5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz$

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is given by

$c=f \lambda$

where

$c=3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

$f$ is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

In this problem, we are considering light with wavelength of

$\lambda=5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m$

Substituting into the equation and re-arranging it, we can find the corresponding frequency:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz$

(b) $1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s$

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

And using $f=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz$ as we found in the previous part, we can find the period of this wave:

$T=\frac{1}{5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s$
