The _____ deflects these winds to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the Southern Hemisphere

Physics

almond37 [142]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Coriolis Effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is responsible for the deflection of winds to the right in the Northern hemisphere and to the right in the Southern hemisphere. It is an effect that occurs because of the rotation of the earth around its axis.

The implication of this is that in areas of low pressure in the Northern hemisphere, winds tend to blow in anticlockwise direction, and in areas of high pressure, it blows in a clockwise direction. The opposite of this happens in the Southern hemisphere.

(URGENT) A ball rolls off a ledge. Its velocity is 7.70m/s in a horizontal direction. It falls on the floor 1.60m below the ledg
elena-s [515]

Answer:

the horizontal distance is 4.355 meters

Explanation:

The computation of the horizontal distance while travelling in the air is shown below:

Data provided in the question is as follows

Velocity = u = 7.70 m/s

H = 1.60 m

R = horizontal direction

Based on the above information

As we know that

R = u × time

where,

Time = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }

So,

= 7.70\times \sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.60}{10} }

= 4.355 meters

hence, the horizontal distance is 4.355 meters

Two identical cars, one on the moon and one on the earth, have the same speed and are rounding banked turns that have the same r
Naily [24]

Answer:

The value of the centripetal forces are same.

Explanation:

Given:

The masses of the cars are same. The radii of the banked paths are same. The weight of an object on the moon is about one sixth of its weight on earth.

The expression for centripetal force is given by,

F_{c} = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{r}

where, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity of the object and r is the radius of the path.

The value of the centripetal force depends on the mass of the object, not on its weight.

As both on moon and earth the velocity of the cars and the radii of the paths are same, so the centripetal forces are the same.

car 2 has a mass of 150 kg and moves westward towards car 3 at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. car 3 has a mass of 265 kg and moves eastw
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The force of car 3 on car 2 ≈ 1810.82 N

Explanation:

The equation for the change in momentum of the two cars are;

Conservation of linear momentum

150( 2.2 - v) = 265(1.5-v)

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = (150+265)v

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = -67.5 = 415×v

∴ v = -67.5/415 = -0.1627 m/s West = 0.1627 m/s East

The impulse of the net force is the amount of momentum change experienced given by the equation;

Impulse force = m \times  v_f - m \times  v_0

Where;

v_f = The final velocity

v_0 = The initial velocity

For the the 265 kg mass, we have;

v_f = 0.1627 m/s

v_0 = 1.5 m/s

Which gives the impulse a s F×Δt =  265×0.1627 - 265×1.5 = -354.38 kg·m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the collision = 1/2×265×(0.1627^2 - 1.5^2) =-294.62 J

Whereby the distance moved in one second is 0.1627 m, we have;

Work done = Force × Distance = Force × 0.1627 = 294.62

Force = 294.62/0.1627 = 1810.82 N.
