Answer:

b Wind blowing West to East away from horse latitudes

Explanation: prevailing Westerlies are winds which blows away from the horse latitudes, this type of wind blow towards the poles between latitude 30 degrees to latitude 60degrees.

Prevailing Westerlies are known to be strongest in the winter months in the and weakest in the summer months

They are also very strong when the pressures are low over the poles and also very weak when the pressures are high over the poles.

The world’s largest wind turbine has blades that are 80 m long and makes 1 revolution every 5.7 seconds. What is the velocity fo
klemol [59]

Answer:

The free end of the blade has a tangential velocity of about 88.19 m/s

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the blades is  2 \pi /5.7\,\,rad/sec

since the blades are 80 m long, then the tangential velocity of the free end of the blade is:

v_{tan} \approx 88.19\,\,m/s

A 1.11 kg piece of aluminum at 78.3 c is put into a glass with 0.210 kg of water at 15.0
ValentinkaMS [17]

M = mass of aluminium = 1.11 kg

c_{a} = specific heat of aluminium = 900

T_{ai} = initial temperature of aluminium = 78.3 c

m = mass of water = 0.210 kg

c_{w} = specific heat of water = 4186

T_{wi} = initial temperature of water = 15 c

T = final equilibrium temperature = ?

using conservation of heat

Heat lost by aluminium = heat gained by water

M c_{a} (T_{ai} - T) = m c_{w} (T - T_{wi} )

(1.11) (900) (78.3 - T) = (0.210) (4186) (T - 15)

T = 48.7 c

A metal block has a mass of 5 grams and a volume of 1 cm3. What is the density of a piece of the same identical metal but with a
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

ρ = Mass / Volume     definition of density

ρ  = 5 g / 1cm^3 = 5 g / cm^3

Since the other object is made of the same metal its density is the same:

ρ = 5 g/cm^3

The equation T^2=A^3 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

D. 2^(3/2)

Explanation:

Given that

T² = A³

Let the mean distance between the sun and planet Y be x

Therefore,

T(Y)² = x³

T(Y) = x^(3/2)

Let the mean distance between the sun and planet X be x/2

Therefore,

T(Y)² = (x/2)³

T(Y) = (x/2)^(3/2)

The factor of increase from planet X to planet Y is:

T(Y) / T(X) = x^(3/2) / (x/2)^(3/2)

T(Y) / T(X) = (2)^(3/2)
