Answer:
A hurricane's spin and the spin's direction is determined by a super-powerful phenomenon called the Coriolis effect. It causes the path of everything from particles in the air to currents in the ocean so they curve as they travel across and over Earth's surfaces.
Answer:
Explanation:
The volume flow rate of a fluid in a pipe is given by:
where
A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe
v is the speed of the fluid
In this problem, at the initial point we have
v = 0.84 m/s is the speed of the water
r = 0.21 m is the radius of the pipe, so the cross-sectional area is
So, the volume flow rate is

Answer:
The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.
You know that when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (A), the velocity is zero, which implies that the kinetic energy (KE) is zeero, so the total mechanical energy (ME) is the potential energy (PE).
And you know that the potential energy, PE, is [ 1/2 ] k (x^2)
Then, use x = A, to calculate the PE in the point where ME = PE.
ME = PE = [1/2] k (A)^2.
At half of the amplitude, x = A/2 => PE = [ 1/2] k (A/2)^2
=> PE = [1/4] { [1/2]k(A)^2 } = .[1/4] ME
So, if PE is 1/4 of ME, KE is 3/4 of ME.
And the answer is 3/4
