Answer: False
Explanation:
Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from. Hence, a wind that <em>"blows towards the east"</em>, logically should <u>come from the west </u>and is called a <em>"west wind"</em>.
In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the <em>Westerlies</em>, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.
Therefore, the statement is false.
Answer: 3.92 N.
Explanation:
Your box weighs 400g, or 0.4kg. In order to lift it, you need to overcome the force of gravity. F = ma, and acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s^2. So gravity acts on the box with a force of 0.4 kg * -9.8 m/s^2 = -3.92 N. A force of +3.92 N is required to overcome this.

You could calculate it out by assuming the same starting temperature for each substance. (You have to assume that the substances do start at the same temperature anyway).
That's like shooting 12 with 2 dice. It can be done, but aiming for a more common number is a better idea.
Same with this question.
You should just develop a rule. The rule will look like this
The greater the heat capacity the (higher or lower) the change in temperature.
The greater the heat capacity the lower the change in temperature
That's not your question. You want to know which substance will have the greatest temperature change given their heat capacities.
Answer
lead. It has the smallest heat capacity and therefore it's temperature change will be the greatest.
Answer:
r = 9.92 mm
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of oil drop, 
It acquires 2 surplus electrons, q = +2e 
Potential difference, V = 620 V
Thie potential difference is applied between the pair of horizontal metal plates the drop is in equilibrium.
We need to find the distance between the plates.
At equilibrium,
mg = qE
Since, E = V/r (r is distance between plates)

So, the distance between the plates is 9.92 mm.
Do you have a picture then I could determine 1 millimeter
