Answer: Gradient Wind
Explanation:
Gradient wind, is the wind that accounts for air flow along a curved trajectory. It is an extension of the concept of geostrophic wind; for example the wind assumed to move along straight and parallel isobars (lines of equal pressure). The gradient wind represents the actual wind better than the geostrophic wind, especially when both wind speed and trajectory curvature are large, because they are in hurricanes and jet streams.
Answer:
t = 5.89 s
Explanation:
To calculate the time, we need the radius of the pulley and the radius of the sphere which was not given in the question.
Let us assume that the radius of the pulley (
) = 0.4 m
Let the radius of the sphere (r) = 0.5 m
w = angular speed = 150 rev/min = (150 × 2π / 60) rad/s = 15.708 rad/s
Tension (T) = 20 N
mass (m) = 3 kg each
Substituting values:
Answer:
Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.
Explanation:
Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.
Answer:
The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.
