Which statement about ocean surface currents is false.

Lynna [10]

B.) They have no effect on air temperature over land on the coast.

Explanation:

The statement that ocean surface currents do not have any effect on air temperature over land on the coast is very incorrect.

In fact, ocean surface currents shapes the coast a whole lot.

There is a constant interaction between the ocean surface current and the air masses on land.
They interact by simple convection through which heat is transferred from one point to the other.
During the day, air masses moves from the land to the ocean because air around the coast are hotter and less dense.
They are quickly replaced by colder and less denser air from the ocean.
At night the reverse is the case.

A cannon of mass 6.43 x 103 kg is rigidly bolted to the earth so it can recoil only by a negligible amount. The cannon fires a 7

Nata [24]

Answer:

The velocity of the shell when the cannon is unbolted is 500.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of cannon, m₁ = 6430 kg

mass of shell, m₂ = 73.8-kg

initial velocity of the shell, u₂ = 503 m/s

Initial kinetic energy of the shell; when the cannon is rigidly bolted to the earth.

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ (73.8)(503)²

K.E = 9336032.1 J

When the cannon is unbolted from the earth, we apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum and kinetic energy

change in initial momentum = change in momentum after

0 = m₁u₁ - m₂u₂

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

where;

v₁ is the final velocity of cannon

v₂ is the final velocity of shell

$v_1 = \frac{m_2v_2}{m_1}$

Apply the principle of conservation kinetic energy

$K = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2\\\\K = \frac{1}{2}m_1(\frac{m_2v_2}{m_1})^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2\\\\K = \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2(\frac{m_2}{m_1}) + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2 \\\\K = \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2 (\frac{m_2}{m_1} + 1)\\\\2K = m_2v_2^2 (\frac{m_2}{m_1} + 1)\\\\v_2^2 = \frac{2K}{M_2(\frac{m_2}{m_1} + 1)} \\\\v_2^2 = \frac{2*9336032.1}{73.8(\frac{73.8}{6430} + 1)}\\\\$

$v_2^2 = 250138.173\\\\v_2 = \sqrt{250138.173} \\\\v_2 = 500.14 \ m/s$

Therefore, the velocity of the shell when the cannon is unbolted is 500.14 m/s

Identical twins, each with mass 61.0 kg, are on ice skates and at rest on a frozen lake, which may be taken as frictionless. Twi

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Immediately after throwing the backpack away, twin A would be moving away from twin B at approximately $0.630\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Initially, twin B would not immediately be moving. However, after the backpack hits her, she would move away from twin A at approximately $0.526\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ if she held onto the backpack.

Explanation:

Consider this scenario in three steps:

Step one: twin A is carrying the backpack.
Step two: twin A throws the backpack away; the backpack is en route to twin B;
Step three: twin B starts to move after the backpack hits her.

Since all external forces are ignored, momentum should be conserved when changing from step one to step two, and from step two to step three.

In step one, neither twin A nor the backpack is moving. Their initial momentum would be zero. That is:

$p(\text{twin A, step one}) = 0$ .
$p(\text{backpack, step one}) = 0$ .

Therefore:

$p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one}) = 0$ .

In step two, the backpack is moving towards twin B at $3.20\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ . Since the mass of the backpack is $12.0\; \rm kg$ , its momentum at that point would be:

$\begin{aligned}p(\text{backpack, step two}) &= m \cdot v \\ &= 12.0\;\rm kg \times 3.20\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} = 38.4\; \rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Momentum is conserved when twin A throws the backpack away. Hence:

$\begin{aligned}&p(\text{backpack, step two}) +p(\text{twin A, step two}) \\ &= p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one})\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$p(\text{twin A, step two}) \\ &= p(\text{backpack, step one}) +p(\text{twin A, step one}) - p(\text{backpack, step two}) \\ &= -38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

The mass of twin A (without the backpack) is $61.0\; \rm kg$ . Therefore, her velocity in step two would be:

$\begin{aligned} v(\text{twin A, step two}) &= \frac{p}{m} \\ &= \frac{-38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}{61.0\; \rm kg} \approx -0.630\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Note that while the velocity of the backpack is assumed to be greater than zero, the velocity of twin A here is less than zero. Since the backpack is moving towards twin B, it can be concluded that twin A is moving in the opposite direction away from twin B.

<h3>From step two to step three</h3>

In step two:

$p(\text{twin B, step two}) = 0$ since twin B is not yet moving.
$p(\text{backpack, step two}) = 38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1}$ from previous calculations.

Assume that twin B holds onto the incoming backpack. Thus, the velocity of the backpack and twin B in step three will be the same. Let $v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})$ denote that velocity.

In step three, the sum of the momentum of twin B and the backpack would thus be:

$\begin{aligned}& m(\text{twin B}) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three}) \\ &+ m(\text{backpack}) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\end{aligned}$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$(m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})$ .

Momentum is conserved when twin B receives the backpack. Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& (m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})) \cdot v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\\ =&p(\text{twin B, step two}) +p(\text{backpack, step two})\\ =& 38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& v(\text{twin B and backpack, step three})\\ =&\frac{p(\text{twin B, step two}) +p(\text{backpack, step two})}{m(\text{twin B}) + m(\text{backpack})}\\ =& \frac{38.4\; \rm kg \cdot m\cdot s^{-1}}{61.0\; \rm kg + 12.0\; \rm kg} \approx 0.526\;\rm m\cdot s^{-1} \rm \end{aligned}$ .

In other words, if twin B holds onto the backpack, then (after doing so) she would be moving away from twin A at approximately $0.526\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .
