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!

kkurt [141]

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

Identify each picture as either an inelastic collision or elastic collision
Ivan

Answer:

<u>Inelastic collision:</u>

A collision in which there is a loss of Kinetic Energy due to internal friction of the bodies colliding.

<u>Characteristics of an inelastic collision:</u>

  • <em>the momentum of the system is conserved</em>
  • <em>the momentum of the system is conservedloss of kinetic energy</em><u> </u>

<em>I</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>a perfectly elastic collision</em><em>, the two bodies </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>collide with each other stick together.</em>

<u>Elastic </u><u>collision</u><u>:</u>

A collision in which the kinetic energy of the two bodies, before and after the collision, remains the same.

<u>Characteristic</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>elastic</u><u> </u><u>collision</u><u>:</u>

  • <em>the</em><em> </em><em>momentum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>system</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>conserved</em>
  • <em>no</em><em> </em><em>loss</em><em> </em><em>o</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>kinetic</em><em> </em><em>energy</em>

In everyday life, no collision is perfectly elastic.

__________________

ANSWER:

<u>Given examples:</u>

  • Two cars colliding with each other form an example of inelastic collision.

<u>Reason:</u>

<em>(</em><em>T</em><em>hey</em><em> </em><em>lose</em><em> </em><em>kinetic</em><em> </em><em>energy</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>come</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>stop</em><em> </em><em>after</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>collision</em><em>.</em><em>)</em>

  • A ball bouncing after colliding with a surface is an example of elastic collision

<u>Reason:</u>

<em>(a very less amount of kinetic energy is lost)</em>

Answer:

M. Magnetism is a property of individual atoms.

Explanation:

when a magnet is broken into pieces the new pieces behave like the original magnet this observation shows that magnetism is the property of individual atoms.
