Answer:

La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards

Explanation:

La Nina is known to be a cool phase that affects the average ocean temperature. During this period the surface wind becomes stronger and there is lesser rainfall over the areas of the central tropical Pacific to which the Southern United States belongs.

Hence, when the southern United States experiences periodic occurrences of severe cold and drought conditions, the weather phenomenon most likely causes this and why is "La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards."

The radius k of the equivalent hoop is called the radius of gyration of the given body. Using this formula, find the radius of g
Morgarella [4.7K]

Here is the full question:

The rotational inertia I of any given body of mass M about any given axis is equal to the rotational inertia of an equivalent hoop about that axis, if the hoop has the same mass M and a radius k given by:  

k=\sqrt{\frac{I}{M} }

The radius k of the equivalent hoop is called the radius of gyration of the given body. Using this formula, find the radius of gyration of (a) a cylinder of radius 1.20 m, (b) a thin spherical shell of radius 1.20 m, and (c) a solid sphere of radius 1.20 m, all rotating about their central axes.

Answer:

a) 0.85 m

b) 0.98 m

c) 0.76 m

Explanation:

Given that: the radius of gyration  k=\sqrt{\frac{I}{M} }

So, moment of rotational inertia (I) of a cylinder about it axis = \frac{MR^2}{2}

k=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{MR^2}{2}}{M} }

k=\sqrt{{\frac{MR^2}{2}}* \frac{1}{M} }

k=\sqrt{{\frac{R^2}{2}}

k={\frac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

k={\frac{1.20m}{\sqrt{2}}

k = 0.8455 m

k ≅ 0.85 m

For the spherical shell of radius

(I) = \frac{2}{3}MR^2

k = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{2}{3}MR^2}{M}  }

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3} R^2}

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3} }*R

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}  *1.20

k = 0.9797 m

k ≅ 0.98 m

For the solid sphere of  radius

(I) = \frac{2}{5}MR^2

k = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{2}{5}MR^2}{M}  }

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{5} R^2}

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{5} }*R

k = \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}  *1.20

k = 0.7560

k ≅ 0.76 m

Cause and Effect: How do changes in temperature affect air? Pls hurry I’m being timed
Elan Coil [88]
As the molecules heat and move faster, they are moving apart. So air, like most other substances, expands when heated and contracts when cooled. Because there is more space between the molecules, the air is less dense than the surrounding matter and the hot air floats upward.
