What’s the doing between high and low pressure systems.

Physics
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
5 0

High pressure systems entail sinking air, while lows entail rising air. High pressure systems form where air converges in the higher levels of the atmosphere. The converging air has nowhere to go and is forced to sink toward the ground. This sinking effect inhibits cloud formation and therefore precipitation.

What do a prism, a magnifying glass, a microscope, and eyeglasses ALL have in common? A) They are opaque. B) They refract light.
Elena L [17]
By definition, when the speed of the light changes when it passes from a material to another, this is called "Refraction of light". This happens when there is a difference in the index of refraction between both mediums o materials. Therefore, that speed depends of <span>the medium through  it passes. 
</span> 
 T<span>he index of refraction</span> is expressed as below: 
 n=c/v
 
 "n"  is <span>the index of refraction.
</span> "c" is <span>is the speed of light.
</span> "<span>v" is the phase velocity of light in the medium.
</span> 
 A prism, a magnifying glass, a microscope, and eyeglasses refract light. Therefore, the correct option is: B) They refract light.

A satellite orbits the Earth in an elliptical orbit. At perigee its distance from the center of the Earth is 22500 km and its sp
aleksley [76]

Answer:

6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

Explanation:

K = Kinetic energy

v_p = Perigee speed = 4280 m/s

v_a = Apogee speed = 3990 m/s

r_p = Perigee Distance = 22500000 m

r_a = Apogee Distance = 24100000 m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

M = Mass of Earth

m = Mass of satellite

In this system the kinetic and potential energies are conserved

K_p+P_p=K_a+P_a\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv_p^2-\frac{GMm}{r_p}=\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2-\frac{GMm}{r_a}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}m(v_p^2-v_a^2)+GMm\left(\frac{1}{r_a}-\frac{1}{r_p}\right)=0\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{v_a^2-v_p^2}{2G}\times \left(\frac{1}{r_a}-\frac{1}{r_p}\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{3990^2-4280^2}{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}\times \left(\frac{1}{24100000}-\frac{1}{22500000}\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow M=6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

The mass of the Earth is 6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

An electric motor exerts a constant torque of 10 Nm on a grindstone mounted on its shaft. The moment of inertia of the grindston
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = 5 rad /s ^2

Kinetic energy = 0.391 J

Work done = 0.391 J

P =6.25 W

Explanation:

The torque is given as moment of inertia × angular acceleration

angular acceleration = torque/ moment of inertia

= 10/2= 5 rad/ s^2

The kinetic energy is = 1/2 Iw^2

w = angular acceleration/time

=5/8= 0.625 rad /s

1/2 × 2× 0.625^2

=0.391 J

The work done is equal to the kinetic energy of the motor at this time

W= 0.391 J

The average power is = torque × angular speed

= 10× 0.625

P = 6.25 W

The time it takes a car to attain a speed of 30 m/s when accelerating from rest at 2 m/s2 is?
Blizzard [7]

Explanation:

u = 0m/s

v = 30m/s

a = 2m/s²

Using Kinematics, we have v = u + at.

Therefore t = (v - u) / a

= (30 - 0) / (2) = 15 seconds. (B)
