What causes the formation of ocean currents?

1 answer:

Ocean currents can be generated by wind, density differences in watermasses caused by temperature and salinity variations, gravity, and events such as earthquakes

Mechanical (sound) waves to Earth from satellites. How is this possible? aves are unable to travel through a vacuum, such as thr

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Sound waves are not able to travel in a vacuum, sound requires a medium such as air or a solid for example. Satellites are indeed in space, but radio waves are not sound waves they are a form of light. Light can travel in a vacuum so the messages that satellites beam back to Earth are light waves not sound waves, that is why it is possible.

A train at a constant 60.0 km/h moves east for 40.0 min, then in a direction 50.0 degrees east of due north for 20.0 min, and th

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

$v = 7.57 km/h$

Part b)

$\theta = 67.5 degree$ North of East

Explanation:

Speed of train towards East = 60 km/h

displacement towards East is given as

$d_1 = 40 km$

now it turns towards 50 degree East of North

so its distance is given as

$d_2 = 20 km(sin50 \hat i + cos50\hat j)$

$d_2 = 15.3 \hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

then finally it moves towards west for 50 min

$d_3 = -50 \hat i$

Now the total displacement of the train is given as

$d = d_1 + d_2 + d_3$

$d = (40 + 15.3 - 50)\hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

$d = 5.3\hat i + 12.8 \hat j$

now total time duration of the motion is given as

$T = 40 min + 20 min + 50 min$

$T = 1.83 h$

now average velocity is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{5.3\hat i + 12.8\hat j}{1.83}$

$v_{avg} = 2.89\hat i + 6.99\hat j$

Part a)

magnitude of the average velocity is given as

$v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$v = \sqrt{2.89^2 + 6.99^2}$

$v = 7.57 km/h$

Part b)

Direction of the velocity is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{6.99}{2.89}$

$\theta = 67.5 degree$ North of East

Being able to see a square in the middle of the image despite not having lines to form a square represents the Gestalt principle

vredina [299]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

C. closure.

Gestalt principle of closure describes how we perceive complete figures even when the information that form the figure is missing.

This is due the fact that our brain responds to the familiar patterns inspite of getting incomplete information.

For instance, in the given question, we are able to perceive an image of square in the center despite not having actual lines that form a square.

Thus, it represents principle of closure.
