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?
Physics

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

How do you find a controlled variable
adelina 88 [10]

Hello there!


Essentially, a control variable is what is kept the same throughout the experiment, and it is not of primary concern in the experimental outcome. Any change in a control variable in an experiment would invalidate the correlation of dependent variables (DV) to the independent variable (IV), thus skewing the results.

Which of the following best describes the circuit shown below?
Rudiy27

Answer:

Short circuit

Explanation:

The given figure shows a short circuit. It is defined as the circuit which allows the flow of electric current when there is no resistance. It shows a battery, bulb and connecting wires.

The wire across the bulb is connected from one terminal to another without any resistance in between them.

So, the correct option is (d) " short circuit ".

A harmonic wave on a string with a mass per unit length of 0.050 kg/m and a tension of 60 N has an amplitude of 5.0 cm. Each sec
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Power of the string wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass per unit length is 0.050 kg/m

Tension in the string T = 60 N

Amplitude of the wave A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Frequency f = 8 Hz

So angular frequency \omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 8=50.24rad/sec

Velocity of the string wave is equal to v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}=\sqrt{\frac{60}{0.050}}=34.641m/sec

Power of wave propagation is equal to P=\frac{1}{2}\mu \omega ^2vA^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.050\times 50.24^2\times 34.641\times 0.05^2=5.464watt

So power of the wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

A swimming pool is 4.0 m in depth; a swimmer at this depth feels discomfort in the ear. Calculate the net force on a 0.50-cm-dia
Mashcka [7]

The net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum is mathematically given as

F= 0.76969 N

<h3>What is the net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Pressure is  mathematically given as

P = ρgh

Therefore

P= 1000*9.8*4

P= 39200 Pa

Where

A= pi*(0.005/2)^2

Generally, the equation for Net force is  mathematically given as

F = PA

F= 39200 *( pi*(0.005/2)^2)

F= 0.76969 N

In conclusion, The net force is

F= 0.76969 N

Which type of macromolecules a cell brake down food?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Hope this helps you find the answer

Explanation:

The proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides that make up most of the food we eat must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them—either as a source of energy or as building blocks for other molecules.
