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!

Explanation:

1. Convex mirror is curved outward.

2. Convex mirror forms an image that is smaller than the object.

3. Concave mirror is used to focus light rays. That's why it is also known as a converging mirror.

4. Plane mirror has a flat surface. It forms the same size of the image as that of the object.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Travelled 18 km, they are 6 km from home.

Explanation:

12/2 (halfway) is 6km. So, 6 + 12 would be 18 km, total amount travelled. The total distance of the trip would be 24 km (12 km out, 12km back) if they travelled 12+6 (18km) then they only have 6 km more to go.

contractor will use a package emulsion having a specific gravity of 1.25 and relative bulk strength of 130 to open an excavation
tester [92]

Answer:

The burden distance is 7 ft

Solution:

As per the question:

Specific gravity of package emulsion, SG_{E} = 1.25

Specific gravity of diabase rock, SG_{R} = 2.76

Diameter of the packaged sticks, d = 3 in

Now,

To calculate the first trail shot burden distance, B:

B = [\frac{2SG_{E}}{SG_{R}} + 1.5]\times d

B = [\frac{2\times 1.25}{2.76} + 1.5]\times 3 = 7.22

B = 7 ft
