A mature thunderstorm will contain both updraft and downdrafts. The given statement is true.

When the cumulus cloud becomes very large, the water in it becomes large and heavy. Raindrops start to fall through the cloud when the rising air can no longer hold them up. Meanwhile, cool dry air starts to enter the cloud. Because cool air is heavier than warm air, it starts to descend in the cloud (known as a downdraft). The downdraft pulls the heavy water downward, making rain.

This cloud has become a cumulonimbus cloud because it has an updraft, a downdraft, and rain. Thunder and lightning start to occur, as well as heavy rain. The cumulonimbus is now a thunderstorm cell.

Chris threw a basketball a distance of 27.5 m to score and win his

salantis [7]

Answer:

v₀ = 16.55 m/s

Explanation:

This motion of the ball can be modeled as a projectile motion with following data:

R = Range of Projectile = 27.5 m

θ = Launch Angle = 50°

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v₀ = Initial Speed of Ball = ?

Therefore, using formula for range of projectile, we have:

$R = \frac{v_{0}^2\ Sin2\theta}{g}\\\\v_{0}^2 = \frac{Rg}{Sin2\theta}\\\\v_{0}^2 = \frac{(27.5\ m)(9.81\ m/s^2)}{Sin100^o}\\\\v_{0} = \sqrt{273.93\ m^2/s^2}$

Which best describes the relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave?

sammy [17]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave would be the <span>energy direction is perpendicular to the motion of the wave. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
