The Coriolis effect influences wind direction around the world in this way: in the Northern Hemisphere it curves winds to the right; in the Southern Hemisphere it curves them left. The exception is with low pressure systems. ... This happens simply because the Earth is a sphere and would be true if the Earth didn't rotate.

A moving car has kinetic energy. If it speeds up until it is going four times faster than before, how much kinetic energy does i
Eva8 [605]
<h2>Ratio of final kinetic energy to initial kinetic energy is 16.</h2>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy , KE = 0.5mv²

Here car speeds up to four times the initial speed, we need to find ratio of final kinetic energy to initial kinetic energy.

Final speed = 4 x Initial speed = 4v

Initial KE = 0.5mv²

Final KE = 0.5 x m x (4v)²

Final KE = 16 x 0.5 x m x v²

Final KE = 16 x Initial KE

Ratio of final kinetic energy to initial kinetic energy is 16.

What type of reaction is shown below? Ba(OH)2 + 8H20 + 2NH4NO3 + heat ?10H2O + 2NH3 + Ba(NO3)2
Reptile [31]
Double Displacement Reaction

An element from each of two compounds switch places.
Example: compound + compound ⇒ compound + compound

Chemical reactions are processes in which substances change into other substances. A chemical reaction takes place if one or more of these occur:
Color changes - Different combinations of molecules reflect light differently. A color change indicates a change in molecules.
Heat content changes- In all chemical reactions, the heat content of the reactants and the heat content of the products is never the same. Sometimes the difference is great and can be easily detected. At other times, the difference is slight and more difficult to detect.
Gas produced - Whenever a gaseous product forms in a liquid solution, bubbles can be seen. A colorless gas produced in a reaction of solids is much harder to detect.
Precipitate forms- Precipitates are insoluble products formed by a reaction taking place in a liquid solution. This insoluble product will eventually settle to the bottom, but might immediately appear by turning the clear solution cloudy.

Find the orbital speed v for a satellite in a circular orbit of radius R.Express the orbital speed in terms of G, M, and R.
AlekseyPX
<h2>Answer:V=\sqrt{G\frac{M}{R}}  </h2>

The velocity of a satellite describing a circular orbit is <u>constant</u> and defined by the following expression:

V=\sqrt{G\frac{M}{R}}     (1)

Where:

G is the gravity constant

M the mass of the massive body around which the satellite is orbiting

R the radius of the orbit (measured from the center of the planet to the satellite).

Note this orbital speed, as well as orbital period, does not depend on the mass of the satellite. I<u>t depends on the mass of the massive body.</u>

In addition, this orbital speed is constant because at all times <u>both the kinetic energy and the potential remain constant</u> in a circular (closed) orbit.
