How does the Coriolis effect influence the direction of the Trade Winds in the Northern Hemisphere? Does it have the same effect

in the Southern Hemisphere?

scoray [572]2 years ago

Answer:

Part A

Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects

Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east

Part B

In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere

A child throws a ball with an initial speed of 8.00 m/s at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. The ball leaves her hand 1.00
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 8 m/s

vertical height, h = 1 m

θ = 40°

Let the horizontal distance is d and the time taken is t.

Use second equation of motion in vertical direction

h = ut + 1/2 at²

1 = 8 Sin 40 x t + 0.5 x 9.8 t²

1 = 5.14 t - 4.9t²

4.9t² - 5.14 t + 1 = 0

so, t = 0.26 s (smaller value)

So, the horizontal distance is

d = u cos 40 x t

d = 8 cos 40 x 0.26

d = 1.6 m

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

16

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by

F=\frac{kq_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the charges of the two particles

r is the separation between the particles

In this problem, the initial force between the particles is F.

Later, the distance between the two particles is increased by four, so

r' = 4r

So, the new force between the particles will be

F'=\frac{kq_1 q_2}{(4r)^2}=\frac{kq_1 q_2}{16r^2}=\frac{1}{16}F

So, the new force decreases by a factor of 16.

A point charge of 6.8 C moves at 6.5 × 104 m/s at an angle of 15° to a magnetic field that has a field strength of 1.4 T. What i
Tamiku [17]

Force on a moving charge is given by

F = q(v x B)

Given that

q = 6.8 C

v = 6.5 * 10^4 m/s

B = 1.4 T

angle = 15 degree

F = qvB sin\theta

F = 6.8*6.5 * 10^4 * 1.4 * sin15

F = 1.6 * 10^5 N

A duck has a mass of 2.70 kg. As the duck paddles, a force of 0.110 N acts on it in a direction due east. In addition, the curre
Maurinko [17]

a) The magnitude will be 0.838m

b) The displacement will be -17.35°

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

The path covered by an object from its initial point to final point.

Forces acting on the duck

x-axis:    0.13 + 0.16*cos(-56°) = 2.7 * ax  

ax = 0.0813 m/s^2

y-axis:    0.13*sin(-56°) = 2.7 * ay  

ay = -0.0491 m/s^2

The displacement on the x-axis

X = Vox * t + ax/2 * t²

X = 0.12* 3.2 + 0.0813/2*3.2²

X = 0.8

The displacement on the y-axis:

Y = Voy * t + ay/2 * t²

X = 0 - 0.0491/2*3.2²

Y=-0.25m

So, the magnitude and angle of this displacement [0.8,-0.25] is:

0.838m  at an angle of -17.35°

What caused the buoyant force on the lead balloon?
pochemuha

The buoyant force on the lead balloon was caused by the air molecules in the room and thus these air molecules will be hitting the surface of the balloon and those collisions will cause a force per unit area.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

The term buoyant force is exerted mostly by objects getting fully or partially immersed in a fluid. This is the upward thrusting force exerted by the fluid on the bottom of the object to prevent the complete immersion of the object.

In other words, the buoyant force helps to keep the object floating. In case of balloon in air, the air pressure acts as the fluid which will be hitting the surface of balloon.

So, these collisions will prevent the balloon to fall down and to remain floating in air with an upward push from the collision of air molecules with the surface of balloon. So, the buoyant force acts on the lead balloon by collision of air molecules with the surface of balloon and pushing it in upward direction.
