Which factors has the largest influence on the formation and direction of the asiatic monsoons?

Physics

Answer:

The factors which have the largest influence on the formation and direction of the asiatic monsoons are:

  1. Moisture-laden or <em>Humid </em> winds. The presence of abundant water bodies around the subcontinent such as  the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and Indian Ocean. These help moisture accumulate in the winds during the hot season.
  2. Droplet formation
  3. Land form barriers (that is Highlands) such as Himalayas, the western Ghats of India, and the Annamese Highlands of Vietnam

                 

Explanation:

The term monsoon comes from the Arabic word <em>mausim</em>, meaning

season.

As a meteorological term, monsoon refers to the directional shifting of winds from one season to the next.

It may also be referred to as a seasonal prevailing wind in the region of South and South-East Asia, blowing from the south-west between May and September and bringing rain (the wet monsoon ), or from the north-east between October and April (the dry monsoon).

Usually, the monsoon occurs when a humid wind blowing from the ocean toward the land in the summer shifts to a dry, cooler wind blowing seaward off the land in the winter, and it involves a full 180° direction change in the wind.

Orographic barriers (that is highlands in the path of the winds) force the winds to rise. Precipitation then occurs on the windward side of the highlands because of adiabatic cooling and condensation of the moist rising air.  

Cheers!

Describe the agronomic significance of the upper and lower plastic limits, and of the plasticity index?​
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:It shows the size of the range of the moisture contents at which the soil remains plastic. In general, the plasticity index depends only on the amount of clay present. It indicates the fineness of the soil and its capacity to change shape without altering its volume.

Suppose a clay model of a koala bear has a mass of 0.200 kg and slides on ice at a speed of 0.750 m/s. It runs into another clay
kaheart [24]

Answer:

0.278 m/s

Explanation:

We can answer the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision.

So we can write:

mu=(m+M)v

where

m = 0.200 kg is the mass of the koala bear

u = 0.750 m/s is the initial velocity of the koala bear

M = 0.350 kg is the mass of the other clay model

v is their final combined velocity

Solving the equation for v, we get

v=\frac{mu}{m+M}=\frac{(0.200)(0.750)}{0.200+0.350}=0.278 m/s
