Answer:

The factors affecting climate are latitude, altitude, land and water distribution, distance from the sea, distance from the sun, prevailing winds and ocean currents, surface covering the land, volcanism, solar constant sunspots, wind direction and nature of mountain chains, mountain barriers.

There are six major climatic controls. They are:

Latitude: As the earth is round, sunlight does not reach everywhere equally. The temperature decreases as we move from the equator to the poles.

Altitude: As we move from the surface of the earth to the higher altitudes, the temperature decreases.

Pressure and wind system: The pressure and wind system of any area depend on the latitude and altitude of that place. Thus, it influences the temperature accordingly.

Distance from the sea: Coastal regions are cooler as compared to interior regions. As the distance from the sea increases, its influence decreases and the people experience extreme weather conditions.

Ocean currents: Cold ocean currents flowing over a region will decrease the temperature of that area whereas warm currents will increase the temperature.

Relief features: Relief features are the barriers that block currents from entering the country. High mountains act as barriers for cold or hot winds.

A world-class sprinter running a 100 m dash was clocked at 5.4 m/s 1.0 s after starting running and at 9.8 m/s 1.5 s later. In w

Answer:

The output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s

Explanation:

Physical Power

It measures the amount of work W an object does in certain time t. The formula needed to compute power is

$\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}$

Work can be computed in several ways since we are given the motion conditions, we'll use this formula, for F= applied force, x=distance parallel to F

$W=F.x$

The second Newton's law gives us the net force as

$F=m.a$

being m the mass of the object and a the acceleration it has for a given period of time. In our problem, we have two different behaviors for each interval and we must calculate this force since the acceleration is changing. Let's calculate the acceleration in the first interval. We can use the formula for the final speed vf knowing the initial speed vo (which is 0 because the sprinter starts from rest), the acceleration a, and the time t:

$v_f=v_o+at$

$v_f=at$

Solving for a

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f}{t}={5.4}{1}$

$a=5.4\ m/s^2$

The distance traveled in the interval is given by

$\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}$

Since vo=0

$\displaystyle x=\frac{a.t^2}{2}=\frac{5.4(1)^2}{2}$

$x=2.7\ m$

The force is given by

$F=m.a$

We don't know the value of m, so the force is

$F=2.7m$

Computing the work done by the sprinter

$W=F.x=2.7m(5.4)$

$W=14.58m$

The power is finally computed

$\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{14.58m}{1}$

$P=14.58m$

During the second interval, from t=1 sec to 1.5 sec, the speed changes from 5.4 m/s to 9.8 m/s. This allows us to compute the second acceleration

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}=\frac{9.8-5.4}{0.5}$

$a=8.8\ m/s^2$

The distance is

$\displaystyle x=(5.4).(0.5)+\frac{8.8(0.5)^2}{2}$

$x=3.8\ m$

The net force is

$F=m(8.8)=8.8m$

The work done by the sprinter is now computed as

$W=8.8m(3.8)=33.44m$

At last, the output power is

$\displaystyle P=\frac{33.44m}{0.5}=66.88m$

By comparing both results, and being m the same for both parts, we conclude the output power is greater in the interval from 1.0 s to 2.5 s

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Answer

Explanation:

The very first generation of star systems in the universe probably consisted only of hydrogen and helium. This means that,

There were no comets or asteroids in these first-generation star systems. As the comets and asteroids were the only soruce of elements other than Hydrogen and Heliums ( As starts mainly consists of helium and hydrogen).

what do you mean by momentum? avehicle is runing with a velocity of 5m/s. it the momentum of the vehicle is 5000kg m/s. what is

Fantom [35]

Momentum is simply a quantity that measures the impact of a moving body over something is due to the mass it posseses or the velocity with which it is moving. Mathematically,ut is the product of mass and velocity of a body. It is represented by capital p...(P) P=mv Solution to the problem: we know P=mv For mass,eliminate m from the equation, m=P/v Put values, m=5000/5=1000kg
