What happens at the end of most cold currents?​

Answers

Answer:

Ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions and helping tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate.

Explanation:


If ocean currents were to stop, climate could change quite significantly, particularly in Europe and countries in the North Atlantic. In these countries, temperatures would drop, affecting humans as well as plants and animals. In turn, economies could also be affected, particularly those that involve agriculture.

What 2 factors do you need in order to calculate speed?

Answers

Answer:

Distance and time.

Explanation:

Speed=Distance/time

The two factors which we need in order to calculate the speed of an object are the distance covered by the object and the time taken to cover that distance.

What is Speed?

Speed is the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only magnitude and no direction. It is measured as the ratio of the distance covered by an object to the time taken in which the distance was covered by that object.

Speed has the dimension of distance covered by the time taken. Thus, the SI unit of speed is the combination of the basic units of distance and the basic unit of Time. Thus, the SI unit of speed is meter per second (m/s).

a 45 kg boy sits on a horse on a carousel 5.0 m from the center of the circle. he makes a revolution every 8.0 s.
calculate his speed.
what is centripetal force acting on the boy?​

Answers

For every complete revolution the boy makes around the center of the carousel, he travels a distance of 2π (5.0 m) = 10π m, which gives a linear speed of

v = (10π m) / (8.0 s) ≈ 3.927 m/s

Then his centripetal acceleration would be

a = v ² / (5.0 m) ≈ 3.084 m/s²

so that the centripetal force exerted on him has magnitude

F = (45 kg) a ≈ 138.791 N ≈ 140 N

A 3kg plastic tank that has a volume of 0.2m ^3 Is filled with liquid water . Assuming the density of water is 1000kg/m^3 determine the weight of the combined system

Answers

Answer:

The weight of the combined system is 1989.8 N.

Explanation:

The weight, W, of an object can be expressed as;

W = mg

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Weight of the combined system = weight of tank + weight of water

mass of the plastic tank = 3 kg

weight of the plastic tank = m x g

                               = 3 x 9.8

                               = 29.4 N

Weight of the plastic tank is 29.4 N

But,

density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

mass = density x volume

volume of water = 0.2 [tex]m^{3}[/tex], density of water = 1000 kg/[tex]m^{3}[/tex].

mass  = 1000 x 0.2

         = 200

mass of water = 200 kg

weight of water = 200 x 9.8

                   = 1960 N

Thus,

combined weight of the system = 29.4 + 1960

                        = 1989.8 N

The weight of the combined system is 1989.8 N.

4. What is the electric field strength (E) at a distance of 0.50 m from a 1.00×10°C charge?

Answers

Answer:

3.6*10¹⁰N/C

Explanation:

The formula for Electric field strength is expressed as:

E = kQ/r²

k is the coulombs constant = 9*10^9Nm²/C²

Q is the charge = 1.00×10°C

r is the distance = 0.50m

Substitute the parameters into the formula as shown:

E = kQ/r²

E =  9*10^9(1)/0.5²

E =  9*10^9/0.25

E = 36*10^9

E = 3.6*10¹⁰N/C

Hence  the electric field strength is 3.6*10¹⁰N/C

Answers

Answer:

1.6537 * 10^9

Explanation:

Given that :

Distance (r) = 2.56 × 10^7 m

Using the relation from Kepler's third law of motion :

T2 = [ 4* pi^2/ G (M1 + M2) ]r^3

M1 = mass of earth = 5.97 *10^24

M2 = Mass of satellite = 9.0 × 10^3 kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 *10^-11

T2 = [ (4 x 3.14^2) / 6.67 x 10^-11 ( 9 x 10^3 + 5.97 x 10^24)]/ (2.56 x 10^7)^3

Absorption and reflection are the two phenomena which describe how the light waves can interact with the wood. Thus, the correct option is A.

What is Absorption and reflection of light?

Light absorption is a process through which light is absorbed and converted into different form of energy. An example of absorption of light is the process of photosynthesis which takes place in plants. However, light absorption does not occur exclusively in the plants, but in all the creatures and inorganic substances present on this planet.

When a ray of light approaches a smooth polished surface such as a metal surface and the light ray bounces back, it is called as the reflection of light. The incident light ray which lands on the surface is reflected off the surface. The ray that bounces back from the surface is called the reflected ray.

A uniform rod is hung at one end and is partially submerged in water. If the density of the rod is 5/9 that of water, find the fraction of the length of the rod above water

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 0.66

Hence, the fraction of the length of the rod above water = [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 0.66

and fraction of the length of the rod submerged in water = 1 - [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34  

Explanation:

Data given:

Density of the rod = 5/9 of the density of the water.

Let's denote density of Water with w

And density of rod with r

So,

r = 5/9 x w

Required:

Fraction of the length of the rod above water.

Let's denote total length of the rod with L

and length of the rod above with = y

Let's denote the density of rod = r

And density of water = w

So, the required is:

Fraction of the length of the rod above water = y/L

y/L = ?

In order to find this, we first need to find out the all type of forces acting upon the rod.

We know that, a body will come to equilibrium if the net torque acting upon a body is zero.

As, we know

F = ma

Density = m/v

m = Density x volume

Volume = Area x length = X ( L-y)

So, let's say X is the area of the cross section of the rod, so the forces acting upon it are:

F = mg

F = (Density x volume) x g

g = gravitational acceleration

F1 = X(L-y) x w x g (Force on the length of the rod submerged in water)

where,

X (L-y) = volume

w = density of water.

Another force acting upon it is:

F = mg

F2 =  X x L x r x g

Now, the torques acting upon the body:

T1 + T2 = 0

F1 ( y + [tex](\frac{L-y}{2})[/tex] ) g sinФ - F2 x ([tex]\frac{L}{2}[/tex]) x gsinФ = 0

plug in the  equations of F1 and F2 into the above equation and after simplification, we get:

[tex](L^{2} - y^{2} ) . w[/tex] = [tex]L^{2}[/tex] . r

where, w is the density of water and r is the density of rod.

As we know that,

r = 5/9 x w

So,

[tex](L^{2} - y^{2} ) . w[/tex] = [tex]L^{2}[/tex] . 5/9 x w

Hence,

[tex](L^{2} - y^{2} )[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5L^{2} }{9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{L^{2} - y^{2} }{L^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex]

Taking [tex]L^{2}[/tex] common and solving for [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex], we will get

[tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 0.66

Hence, the fraction of the length of the rod above water = [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 0.66

and fraction of the length of the rod submerged in water = 1 - [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex] = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34

Approximately, What is the value of the Hubble Constant, as measured by scientists? Hypothetically, if the value of the Hubble Constant were 700 km/s/Mpc, what would this imply about the age of our universe?

Answers

Answer:

The current value of the Hubble's constant = 73 km/sec/Mpc.

t = 71.9 trillion years will be the new age of universe if the Hubble constant = 700 km/s/Mpc

Explanation:

The current value of the Hubble's constant = 73 km/sec/Mpc. However, recent discoveries in the cosmology contradicts the idea of Hubble constant as being fixed. Some scientists are not agreeing on this value and the debate is going on.

Hubble law states that how fast universe is expanding or in other words, galaxies are expanding separating with a speed directly proportional to the distance of galaxies to the earth.

Hence,

v is directly proportional to d

where, v = apparent velocity

d = distance

if we equate velocity and distance then there comes Hubble constant.

v = [tex]H_{0}[/tex] x d

 [tex]H_{0}[/tex] = 73 km/sec/Mpc

where, Mpc = Mega Parsec = 1 Mpc = 3.086 x [tex]10^{19}[/tex] km      

We can use Hubble constant to tell the age of universe.

t = d/v

t = d/( [tex]H_{0}[/tex] xd)

t = 1/[tex]H_{0}[/tex]

Scientist calculated the age of universe by using Hubble constant, which is 13.4 billion years.

Now, if we hypothetically change the value of Hubble constant,

from [tex]H_{0}[/tex] = 73 km/sec/Mpc to [tex]H_{0}[/tex] = 700 km/sec/Mpc

then the age of universe will be:

t = 1/[tex]H_{0}[/tex]

first convert the units of new [tex]H_{0}[/tex] into 1/s

[tex]H_{0}[/tex] = (700) x (/3.08 x [tex]10^{19}[/tex] )

[tex]H_{0}[/tex] = 227.27 x[tex]10^{-19}[/tex]  = 2.27 x [tex]10^{-21}[/tex] 1/s

So,

Age of universe will be:

t = 1/[tex]H_{0}[/tex] = 1/2.27x[tex]10^{-21}[/tex] 1/s

t = 2.27 x [tex]10^{21}[/tex] s

t = 71.9 trillion years

t = 71.9 trillion years will be the new age of universe if the Hubble constant = 700 km/s/Mpc

       

The universe is "4.4×10²⁰ seconds" old.

Given value:

Hubble Constant,

[tex]H_o = \frac{700 \ km/s}{Mpc}[/tex]

We know,

[tex]Mpc = 3.086\times 10^{19} \ km[/tex]

By substituting the value of "Mpc" in Hubble constant, we get

→ [tex]H_o = \frac{700}{3.086\times 10^{19}}[/tex]

        [tex]= 227\times 10^{-19} \ 1/s[/tex]

        [tex]= 2.27\times 10^{-21} \ 1/s[/tex]

The Hubble's time will be:

→ [tex]H_o = \frac{1}{t}[/tex]

or,

→ [tex]t = \frac{1}{H_o}[/tex]

     [tex]= \frac{1}{2.27\times 10^{-21}}[/tex]

     [tex]= 4.4\times 10^{20} \ seconds[/tex]
