How does jet stream form

Physics
1 answer:
barxatty [35]3 years ago
7 0
Even though the wind "tries" to flow from high pressure to low pressure, the turning of the Earth causes the air flow to turn to the right (in the Northern Hemisphere), so the jet stream flows around the air masses, rather than directly from one to the other.

How do scientists decide how they gather information
kogti [31]
The scientific method. When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.

Two college teams, A and B, are playing a game of tug of war. Team A applies a force of 103 newtons, but the rope does not move
Kipish [7]
Given that the rope is not moving (acceleration is zero), by the second Law of Newton (F=m*a), the net force acting on the rope is zero.

Then, the force applied by the team B equals the force applied by the tema A: 103 N.

Find the acceleration of a hamster when it increases its velocity from rest to 8.0 m/s in 3.0 s .
Eva8 [605]
<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time.
We can find acceleration a, by the following formula

a=v-u/t

where,
v is the final velocity (in this question v=8.0 m/s)
u is the initial velocity (since the hamster starts from rest, u=0)
t is the time taken (i,e 3.0 second)
now by applying the formula we have,

a = 8.0 - 0 / 3
= 8 / 3
= 2.65 m/s</span>²<span> 

The acceleration is 2.65 meters per second squared</span>

A car is traveling up a hill that is inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal. Determine the ratio of the magnitude of the no
padilas [110]

Explanation:

The weight of the car is equal to, W_c=m\times g...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of car

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The normal or vertical component of the force is, F_N=mg\ cos\theta

or

F_N=mg\ cos(13).............(2)

The horizontal component of the force is, F_H=mg\ sin\theta

Taking ratio of equation (1) and (2) as :

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{mg\ cos\theta}{mg}

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=cos(13)

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=0.97

or

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{97}{100}

Hence, this is the required solution.
