I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!

A 70.0-kg person throws a 0.0480-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 33.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 55.0 kg, c
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The final velocity of the thrower is \bf{3.88~m/s} and the final velocity of the catcher is \bf{0.029~m/s}.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the thrower, m_{t} = 70~Kg.

The mass of the catcher, m_{c} = 55~Kg.

The mass of the ball, m_{b} = 0.0480~Kg.

Initial velocity of the thrower, v_{it} = 3.90~m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v_{fb} = 33.5~m/s

Initial velocity of the catcher, v_{ic} = 0~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the thrower is v_{ft}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& m_{t}v_{ft} + m_{b}v_{fb} = (m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it} - m_{b}v_{fb}}{m_{t}}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(70 + 0.0480)(3.90) - (0.0480)(33.5)}{70}\\&or,& v_{ft} = 3.88~m/s

Consider that the final velocity of the catcher is v_{fc}. From the conservation of momentum,

&& (m_{c} + m_{b})v_{fc} = m_{b}v_{it}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{m_{b}v_{it}}{(m_{c} + m_{b})}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{(0.048)(33.5)}{(55.0 + 0.0480)}\\&or,& v_{fc} = 0.029~m/s

Thus, the final velocity of thrower is 3.88~m/s and that for the catcher is 0.029~m/s.

A) what is the light source for a plant growing in the shade?
Ulleksa [173]

a.) Plants that thrive in the shade are often able to hold on to sunlight for extensive periods of time; they're in a sense like the camels of the plaNt WoRld.

b.) Though artificial lights are not nearly as beneficial as the sun, one could invest in one of them plant growing light thingies, but sun-loving plants might be sad if u do this instead of letting them soak in ePic rays from the sun.
