A jet stream forms high in the upper troposphere between two air masses of very different temperature. The greater the temperature difference between the air masses, the faster the wind blows in the jet stream.
.
.
So "Differences in temperature between two air masses" is the answer

taurus [48]

Answer:he is incorrect

Explanation:he is wrong because if the sunlight is on the opposite side of the earth than the moon, then the sunlight would be blocked by the earth, making the moon dark, because the moon gets its light from the light that is reflected of the surface from the sun

In the kitchen of your house you would like to run a 240 W blender, a 30 W phone charger, a 720 W toaster oven, and two 120 W li
meriva

Current pulled by these appliances is 10.25 A

Explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the total power used by these appliances.

Total power = 240 + 30 + 720 + (2 × 120) = 1230 W

  • Step 2: Given voltage is 120 V, find the current by using the formula Power = Voltage × Current

⇒ Current(I) = P/V = 1230/120 = 10.25 A

There are eight men sitting on a couch. Three legs break and six men leave. How many legs are remaining
lutik1710 [3]

Explanation: Well, think about it if you see it on the logical end, there are 8 men that mean 16 legs. Then there are 4 legs of the couch as well that made it total of 20. If broken legs are of the men, then still the total will be 20 because the legs are still intact but 6 men left that means 12 legs are gone, if 3 legs break and 6 men leave. the number of legs remaining are 20–6*2–3=5....  so it's 5  I hope this helps! xoxo

An object is 45.0 kg here on Earth. What is its mass on Jupiter if the acceleration
puteri [66]

Answer:

B. 45.0 kg

Explanation:

On earth the object has ;

Mass = 45 kg

acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

On Jupiter, acceleration is  24.79 m/s²

The mass of this object on Jupiter will be 45 kg. It will not change. Mass of an object will only change when you remove part of the object from it or add to it another part. The mass is the same on Earth and on Jupiter. However, due to increased acceleration on Jupiter , the weight will change/ increase because;

Weight = mass * acceleration

<u>On Earth </u>

Weight of the object will be : 45 *  9.81 = 441.45 kg

<u>On Jupiter</u>

Weight of the object will be : 45*24.79 =1115.55 kg

A person uses a surfboard to ride every 30th wave crest towards the beach. The wave crest travels at a speed of 1.6m/s and the d
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity/ speed of the wave, λ = wave length of the wave, f = number of waves the person surf in one seconds.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 1.6 m/s, λ = 24 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 1.6/24

f = 0.0667 wave/seconds.

If,

in one seconds, the person surf a total wave crest of 0.0667

Therefore,

in one hours, he will surf a total wave crest of (0.0667×60×60) = 240 waves crest

He rides for every 30th wave crest,

Hence,

number of wave crest the person surf in one hour = 240/30 = 8
