Sammy feels an ocean breeze as he plays volleyball at the beach. Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the

day? Question 2 options: Air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air. Earth's rotation causes air to blow toward land. he energy of the ocean storms push air toward shore. Ocean air is less dense, so it rises to replace air over the land.

The heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises and the cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air. The correct answer is option A

There will be heat transfer from a region of higher temperature to the region of lower temperature. But in the case of land and sea breeze, the transfer of heat are the result of convectional current in nature. Because the land is a better absorber of heat and also has a lower specific heat capacity compare to sea, during the day, the heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises.

The cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air.

Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the day ? It is because air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air.

Therefore, option A is correct

An elevator cable breaks when a 925-kg elevator is 28.5 m above the top of a huge spring Ak = 8.00 * 104 N????mB at the bottom o
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a) = 258352.5J

b) = 23.63 m/s

c) = 1.8m

Explanation:

Data;

Mass = 925kg

Distance (s) = 28.5m

Force constant (k) = 8.0*10⁴ N/m

g = 9.8 m/s²

a) = work = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration

Force = 925 * 9.8 = 9065N

Work = F * s = 9065 * 28.5 = 258352.5J

b) acceleration (a) = (v² - u²) / 2s

a = v² / 2s

v² = a * 2s

v² = 9.8 * (2 * 28.5)

v² = 9.8 * 57

v² = 558.6

v = √(558.6)

V = 23.63 m/s

C). The work stops when the work done to raise the spring equals the work done to stop it by the spring

W = ½kx²

258352.5 = ½ * 8.0*10⁴ * x²

(2 * 258352.5) = 8.0*10⁴x²

516705 = 8.0*10⁴x²

X² = 516705 / 8.0*10⁴

X² = 6.46

X = √(6.46)

X = 2.54m

The compression was about 2.54m

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "4.443 sec".

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of child,

= 34 kg

Mass of swing,

= 18 kg

Length,

= 4.9 m

The time period of pendulum will be:

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{4g}

  = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{4.9}{9.8} }
