What is the formula for ground speed?
The distance traveled divided by the time it took in minutes
What is a real life example of the sine function?
A real life example of the sine function could be a ferris wheel. People board the ride at the ground (sinusoidal axis) and the highest and lowest heights you reach on the ride would be the amplitudes of the graph.
What walks backwards every three minutes?
someone that keeps finding pennys on the ground and then relized that the person in front of him/her has a hole in his/her pocket
How many minutes will it take two balloons to meet if a balloon 10 meters above the ground and rising 15 meters per minute and a balloon 150 meters above the ground descending at 20 meters per minute?
The two balloons are 150-10 = 140 metres apart. They are travelling towards each other at a speed of 15+20 = 35 metres per minute. 140 m at 35 m/minute takes 140/35 = 4 minutes.
A jet plane has a speed through still air of 425 mph but suddenly flies into against a head wind of 50mph How long will this plane need to cover 250 miles over the ground?
40 minutes
What is a violently rotating column of air stretching from cloud to ground?
a rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground is a Tornado
What does amplitude represent in a ferris wheel?
amplitude of a Ferris wheel represents the distance from the axis of rotation of the wheel to the maximum or minimum height of the wheel above the ground.
What is a voilently rotating column of air that touches the ground called?
It is a tornado.
A rotating cone shaped column of air extending downward from a cloud when it touches the ground it is called a tornado?
A rotating cone shaped column of air extending downward from a cloud when it touches the ground it is called a tornado
What kind of cloud is a rotating column of air that doesn't touch the ground?
funnel
Does your stomach drop on the ferris wheel?
Typically, yes. As the Ferris wheel spins down back toward the ground, you will usually experience the sensation commonly referred to as your stomach dropping. However, the sensation in this case is relatively mild and very few people experience motion sickness on a Ferris wheel.
What is the difference in feet between the minimum and maximum heights of a car on the Ferris wheel?
The difference in feet between the minimum and maximum heights of a car on a Ferris wheel will be the diameter of the Ferris wheel. You might want to add the height of a car above ground at its lowest point to be technically correct.
In a seismometer the pen is attached to an inertial mass suspended by a spring What is the rotating drum attached to?
the ground
The seats of a Ferris wheel are 35 ft from the center of the wheel When you get into your seat your seat is 5 ft off the ground How far above the ground are you after the wheel rotates 765 degree?
40ft
How many minutes was the longest tornado on ground for?
The Tri- state tornado was on the ground for about 3 and a half hours, or approximately 210 minutes.
What is a destructive rotating air column with very height wind speeds that touches the ground?
tornado, as in the image above.
What column of violently rotating air in the shape of a funnel that extends from the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud to the ground?
This is called a tornado.
