Winds are immigrants. They're named for where they have already been and are coming from, not for where they're going.
A Westerly wind is coming from the West. Anything caught in it is being blown toward the east.
Answer:
The correct answer is detritic rocks.
Explanation:
Sedimentary rocks are rocks formed by the accumulation of sediments, particles of various sizes that are transported by water, ice or wind, which are subjected to physical and chemical processes, resulting in consolidated materials.
Sedimentary rocks formed from the accumulation of mineral deposits and rocks from erosion and deposited by gravity are called detritic rocks.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
<em>585lb</em>
Explanation:
Given the formula for calculating the magnitude of the resultant force as;

<em>Given </em>
<em></em>
<em></em>
<em>Hence the magnitude of the resultant force is 585lb</em>
Answer:
(b) Yes, the earth gains momentum but the change in momentum of the earth is much lesser compared to that of everyone in the air. The resistance to motion (inertia of the earth), which is a function of its mass is so great that the earth's acceleration is small in the given time frame.
Explanation:
From Newton's second law which can be stated mathematically as
F = m(v-u)/t = ma.
By Newton's law of gravitation, there is a force between the earth and everyone in the air. This force is responsible for the change in momentum of everyone in the air and this force gives them an acceleration equal to g = 9.80m/s². By Newton's law of gravitation and Newton's third law of motion, this force is also equal to the force exerted by everyone on the earth.
For this to be true,
F = M (everyone) ×a (everyone) = M(earth) × a (earth).
And
a (earth) = {M (everyone) ×a (everyone) }/M (earth)
Then
a (earth) must be lesser than a (everyone) since M(earth) >> M(everyone).
a = change in momentum/ time
Therefore the earth will have a much lesser change in momentum which is the reason we won't notice the earth's movement.
