How does jet stream form

Physics
1 answer:
barxatty [35]3 years ago

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.

The potential difference between the plates of a capacitor is 145 V. Midway between the plates, a proton and an electron are rel
aniked [119]

Answer:

= 2.52 x 10^ 6 m/s        

Explanation:

The force that acts on charged particles between capacitor plates =

F = (q) (Δv)  ÷ d

Here,  d = distance between the two plates

          q = charge of the charged particle

         Δv = voltage

Normally, the force that makes both proton and electron released from rest, giving the charge acceleration is F=m X a. where m= mass and a = acceleration

Poting this equation with the first one, we have:

m X a =  (q) (Δv)  ÷ d

So, the acceleration of a proton when moving towards a negatively charged plate is

a = (q) (Δv)  ÷ (d) (m) {proton}

Likewise, the acceleration of an electron when moving towards a positively charged plate is

a = (q) (Δv)  ÷ (d) (m) {electron}

Dividing the proton acceleration formula by the electron acceleration formula we have:

a (proton) / a (electron) = m (proton) / m(electron)

inserting equation of motion to get distance, s

s = ut + 1/2 at^2

recall that electron travel distance, d/2

d/2 = 1/2 at^2

making t the subject of the formula

we have, t =√(d ÷ a(electron))

The distance of proton:

d/2 =  ut + 1/2 at^2 [proton}

put d/2 =  ut + 1/2 at^2 [proton} into t =√(d ÷ a(electron))

Initial speed, ui = √(d ÷ a(electron)) = (d/2) - (1/2) x (d) (a(proton) + a(electron))

since acceleration wasn't given in the question, lets use mass(elect

ron)  ÷ mass(proton) rather than use (a(proton) + a(electron))

Therefore, intial speed= 1/2√((e X Δv) ÷ m(electron)) (1- m(electron)/ m(proton))

   Note, e = 1.60 x 10^-19

           m(electron) = 9.11 X 10^-31

            m(proton) = 1.67  X 10^-27

Input these values into the formula above, initial speed, UI =  

           = 2.52 x 10^ 6 m/s

In economics what goods and services will be produced?​
poizon [28]

Answer:A market economy is a system where the laws of supply and those of demand direct the production of goods and services. 1  Supply includes natural resources, capital, and labor. Demand includes purchases by consumers, businesses, and the government. Businesses sell their wares at the highest price consumers will pay.

A railroad car moving at a speed of 3.46 m/s overtakes, collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars moving in the same d
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

2.09\ \text{m/s}

22298.4\ \text{J}

Explanation:

m = Mass of each the cars = 1.6\times 10^4\ \text{kg}

u_1 = Initial velocity of first car = 3.46 m/s

u_2 = Initial velocity of the other two cars = 1.4 m/s

v = Velocity of combined mass

As the momentum is conserved in the system we have

mu_1+2mu_2=3mv\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{u_1+2u_2}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{3.46+2\times 1.4}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=2.09\ \text{m/s}

Speed of the three coupled cars after the collision is 2.09\ \text{m/s}.

As energy in the system is conserved we have

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mu_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}2mu_2^2-\dfrac{1}{2}3mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 3.46^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 1.4^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 2.09^2\\\Rightarrow K=22298.4\ \text{J}

The kinetic energy lost during the collision is 22298.4\ \text{J}.

Locate the complete verbal phrase and identify its type.
Ksju [112]
<span>won
adjective

Verb phrases are verbs that may function as a predicate, adjective, or adverb. </span>

(a) "That he said" is an adjective modifying "word". However, this contains the s ubject"he" and the verb "said". It is a clause and NOT a phrase. Phrases can only have either a verb or a noun.
<span>(b) There's only one verb "was" but it does not come with a complement, object, modifier, or other verb. Hence, it's NOT a verb phrase. </span>
<span>(c) "Shall be" consists of the modal shall and the be-verb be. This is a perfect example of a verb phrase that functions as a VERB PHRASE. </span>
<span>(d) "Roared" and "charged" are two verbs referring to different subjects. They do not come with a complement, object, modifier, or another verb. Hence, they're NOT a verb phrase. "As the bull charged" is a clause and not a phrase.</span>

A 1100 kgkg safe is 2.4 mm above a heavy-duty spring when the rope holding the safe breaks. The safe hits the spring and compres
Drupady [299]

Answer:

191.36 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

The Potential Energy of the safe = Energy of the spring when it was compressed.

mgh = 1/2ke²............... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the safe, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height of the save above the heavy duty spring , k = spring constant, e = compression

Making k the subject of the equation,

k =2mgh/e²................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1100 kg, h = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, e = 0.52 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(1100)(9.8)(0.0024)/0.52²

k = 51.744/0.2704

k = 191.36 N/m

Hence the spring constant of the heavy-duty spring = 191.36 N/m
