Explanation :

Near the equator, rising air is associated with a pressure zone known as the equatorial low. In this type of zones, the weather is rainy with a feeble amount of wind flow.

It is one of the hottest areas on the earth. It also creates a low-pressure zone. It is also termed as equatorial doldrums.

So, the correct answer is equatorial low or equatorial doldrums.

In an arcade game a 0.135 kg disk is shot across a frictionless horizontal surface by compressing it against a spring and releas

ioda

Answer:

v=2.42m/s

Explanation:

We use the energy conservation theorem in order to solve the problem. The energy when the spring is compressed is equal at the energy when the disk leaves the spring:

$E_{initial}=E{final}\\E_{k-initial}+E_{p-initial}=E_{k-final}+E_{p-final}\\0+\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+0$

At the beginning the initial energy is totally potential, energy linked to the compressed spring. At the end the energy is totally kinetics

We solve the equation in order to find the speed.

k=162 N/m

x=7 cm=0.07m

m=0.135 kg

$v=x*\sqrt{k/m}=0.07*\sqrt{162/0.135}=2.42m/s$

An air mass that originates over land in Canada is most likely

liberstina [14]

The air mass that originates over land in Canada is most likely to be cold and dry

Explanation:

The air masses overland from a continent is usually Dry. The air masses are formed by the uneven warming and cooling of the surface of the earth by the sun gives rise to air masses.
Canada is affected by the five air masses they are Continental Arctic, Maritime Arctic, Maritime polar, Maritime tropical, and Continental Tropic.
As Canada is most likely affected by the Continental Arctic the air masses are cold and dry.
