Winds are deflected to the right as they move into a low pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Winds decide the motion of ocean currents which forms the surface waves in the Earth's atmosphere to maintain the pressure region. The motion of ocean currents is based on Coriolis force which states the direction of motion of an object in a rotating system.

In the case of Earth, the Coriolis force has an effect on the ocean currents which are deflected from maximum to minimum pressure region in a curved path. So the winds formed by the ocean currents will generally get deflected at the right as they move into a low pressure area at the Northern Hemisphere from the high pressure region.

What was done to test if Comets are responsible for 1/2 the Earth's water?

My name is Ann [436]

✯Hello✯

↪ A satellite was crashed into a comet (on purpose of course)

↪ When it crashed a huge amount of water gushed out

↪ It was over hundreds of thousands of litres

↪ These proved that most of the water came from Comets for the world's first oceans

A car accelerates along a straight road from rest to 90 km/h in 5.0 s. A) Find the magnitude of its average acceleration. B) Fin

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

a) $A=5m/s^2$

b) $V=25m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Velocity $v=90km/h=25m/s$

Time $t=5.0s$

Generally From Newton's motion equation for Average acceleration is mathematically given by

$A=\frac{V-U}{t}$

Since its from Rest Therefore

$U=0$

$A=\frac{25m/s-0}{5s}$

$A=5m/s^2$

Generally the equation for Average Velocity is mathematically given by

$V=u+at$

$AT t=1.0s\\\\V=0+5(1)$

$V=5m/s$

$AT t=2.0s\\\\V=0+5(2)$

$V=10m/s$

$AT t=5.0s\\\\V=0+5(5)$

$V=25m/s$
