Assume that 10 waves pass a fixed point in 5 seconds. What is the frequency of the waves in hertz?

How do sea surface temperatures affect evaporation rate?

kotegsom [21]

<span>Answer: The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>

A crate filled with delicious junk food rests on a horizontal floor. Only gravity and the support force of the floor act on it,

stealth61 [152]

The words "... as shown ..." tell us that there's a picture that goes along
with this question, and you decided not to share it. That's sad and
disappointing, but I think the question can be answered without seeing
the picture.

The net force on the crate is zero. Evidence for this is that fact that
the crate is just sitting there. If the net force on an object is not zero,
then the object is accelerating ... it's either speeding up, slowing down,
or its the direction of its motion is changing. If none of these things is
happening, then the net force on the object must be zero.

Rick shoots a basketball at an angle of 35' from the horizontal. It leaves his hands 7 feet from the ground with a velocity of 2

Korvikt [17]

Given:

The angle of projection of the basketball, θ=35°

The height at which the ball leaves the hand, h=7 ft

The initial velocity of the basketball, v=20 ft/s

To find:

The parametric equations describing the shot.

Explanation:

The range, x of the basketball is given by,

$x=v\cos\theta t$

On substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} x=20\times\cos35\degree\times t \\ \implies x=16.4t \end{gathered}$

The change in the height, y of the basketball is given by,

$y=-v\sin\theta t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

On substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} y=-20\times\sin35\degree\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times32\times t^2 \\ \implies y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{gathered}$

Final answer:

The parametric equations describing the shot are

$\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} x=16.4t \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{equation*} \end{gathered}$

A boy is whirling a stone around his head by means of a string. The string makes one complete revolution every second, and the t

slega [8]

Answer:

The tension increases to four times its original value.

Explanation:

v = Velocity

r = Radius

m = Mass of stone

The centripetal force is

$F_c=m\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

The tension will balance the centripetal force

$T=m\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

$\\\Rightarrow T\propto v^2$

$\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=\dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=\dfrac{v_1}{2^2v_1^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow T_2=4T_1$

The new tension will be 4 times the old tension
