als it was carrying fall to the bottom of the lake and form layers. A layer is thicker when more water enters the lake. For example, thick layers form during times of heavy rain, and thin layers form during times of little rain. Sometimes lakes dry up. The bottoms of dry lakes can change into rock. This rock will still have layers. A geologist studied one of these rocks made from the bottom of a lake. Which rock layer formed during the wettest season? Layer

Explain why air masses do not mix
kati45 [8]

 

Different densities have to have a reason - different pressure and/or humidity etc. If there is a different pressure, there is a mechanical force that preserves the pressure difference: think about the cyclones that have a lower pressure in the center. The cyclones rotate in the right direction and the cyclone may be preserved by the Coriolis force.

If the two air masses differ by humidity, the mixing will almost always lead to precipitation - which includes a phase transition for water etc. It's because the vapor from the more humid air mass gets condensed under the conditions of the other. You get some rain. In general, intense precipitation, thunderstorms, and other visible isolated weather events are linked to weather fronts.

At any rate, a mixing of two air masses is a nontrivial, violent process in general. That's why the boundary is called a "front". In the military jargon, a front is the contested frontier of a conflict. So your idea that the air masses could mix quickly and peacefully - whatever you exactly mean quantitatively - either neglects the inertia of the air, a relatively low diffusion coefficient, a low thermal conductivity, and/or high latent heat of water vapor. A front is something that didn't disappear within minutes so pretty much tautologically, there must be forces that make such a quick disappearance impossible.

An elevator is moving is an upwards
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The elevator's free-body diagram has three forces, the force of gravity, a downward normal force from you, and an upward force from the tension in the cable holding the elevator. The combined system of you + elevator has two forces, a combined force of gravity and the tension in the cable.

For copper, ρ = 8.93 g/cm3 and M = 63.5 g/mol. Assuming one free electron per copper atom, what is the drift velocity of electro
viktelen [127]

Answer:

V_d = 1.75 × 10⁻⁴ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Density of copper, ρ = 8.93 g/cm³

mass, M = 63.5 g/mol

Radius of wire = 0.625 mm

Current, I = 3A

Area of the wire, A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4} = A = \frac{\pi 0.625^2}{4}

Now,

The current density, J is given as

J=\frac{I}{A}=\frac{3}{ \frac{\pi 0.625^2}{4}}= 2444619.925 A/mm²

now, the electron density, n = \frac{\rho}{M}N_A

where,

N_A=Avogadro's Number

n = \frac{8.93}{63.5}(6.2\times 10^{23})=8.719\times 10^{28}\ electrons/m^3

Now,

the drift velocity, V_d

V_d=\frac{J}{ne}

where,

e = charge on electron = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

thus,

V_d=\frac{2444619.925}{8.719\times 10^{28}\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})e} = 1.75 × 10⁻⁴ m/s

A machine is currently set to a feed rate of 5.921 inches per minute (IPM). Te machinist changes this setting to 6.088 IPM. By h
lukranit [14]

Answer:

By 16.7% or 0.167 IPM

Explanation:

Substracting the final IPM (6.088) to the initial IPM (5.921) gives us the net difference, which is how much did it increase in IPM. Multiplying this number by 100 gives us the percentual increase in the feed rate.
