How is wind generated?

Physics
1 answer:
just olya [345]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Wind is caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun, variations in the earth's surface, and rotation of the earth. ... Wind turbines convert the energy in wind to electricity by rotating propeller-like blades around a rotor. The rotor turns the drive shaft, which turns an electric generator

. Calculate the kinetic energy of a 100.0-kg meteor approaching the Earth at a speed of 10.0 km/s. Remember that 1 km = 1000 m.
anastassius [24]
Ke = (1/2)mv²

m = 100kg, v = 10 km/s = 10*1000 = 10000m/s

Ke = (1/2)*100*10000 

Ke = 500000 Joules

Needing help with this please
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

So A we cant sadly do because we cant draw. B is going to be kinetic. Thats because static friction means it stays in one place, for kinetic it means moving. So it will be 0.05 as the coefficient of the friction. Sadly, I cannot calculate C. You will have to use trigonemetry but I cannot fit that big an explanation.

Answer to A: the free body diagram would be the ski things inclined with gravity, friction, and  air resistance. I except you know which directions

Answer to B: Kinetic friction is the answer.

Answer to C: Find on own, I cannot write super big explanations - use trigonometry.

Explain in terms of impulse how padding reduces forces in a collision. State this in terms of a real example, such as the advant
Lena [83]

Answer:

Impulse = Average force x time of contact

Explanation:

Impulsive force is a force which is very large but applied on a body for a very small duration of time.

Impulse is given by the change in momentum of the body.

Impulse = Average force x small time interval

When padding is there, the time interval of contact is large and thus, the force exerted by the body is small.

So, when a person falls on the tile floor, there is no compression and thus, the time of contact is very small and thus the impulsive force is very large, due to  which the body may damage.

So, when a person falls on the carpeted floor, there is a compression and thus, the time of contact is comparatively large and thus the impulsive force is small, due to  which the body may safe.
