Clockwise

of the western North Atlantic, having wind speeds of or in excess of 72 miles per hour.” Cyclonic storms are those with, “A system of winds rotating inward to an area of low atmospheric pressure, with a counterclockwise (northern hemisphere) or clockwise (southern hemisphere) circulation; a depression”. The rain,accompanying a hurricane is more torrential when hitting an island or while in the open Atlantic sea. This is because…

shipping routes was dependent on the wind patterns. Sailboats are much more efficient when they are traveling with the wind, and it is nearly impossible to travel against it. “For instance, because the winds in the Northern Atlantic Ocean follow a clockwise pattern, the duration of a round trip with a clipper ship from Lisbon to Cape Verde would be similar to that of a round trip from Lisbon to Salvador. With the steamship, the former trip would require only half of the time needed for the…

Hours and hours of extensive research and planning went into this moment in time. Dim lights from the hallway protruded into my bedroom, and an eerie silence echoed through the crevices of my house as I imprinted my head deep into my sweaty palms. Scrolling imperceptibly down the page of my Charles Schwab account, I found myself gliding the cursor over a large green button that displays the word “trade”. My heart pulsated violently as I clicked on the left side of my mouse and selected the buy…

Figure 1) Before beginning to attempt to answer the question, the lab had to be set up correctly. First, the rotating object was set tangent to the hanging mass. Once the hanging mass was released from rest, the rotating object began moving in the clockwise direction. The weights placed on the rotating object would also affect the time for the hanging mass to hit the floor.The greater the mass, the less time it would take for the weight to reach the floor. The lesser the mass, the more…

In this paper we will see how physics plays a role in the sport of soccer. In this paper I will be using five different references : the science classroom, real world physics problems, soccer mania, soccer ball world, and stmarys-ca.edu. Physics is the study of matter and its motion through space and time, it is a big role in soccer , soccer uses Newton’s first , second, and third laws of motion.Magnu effect is also a role in soccer this is when the ball curves to a certain direction…

Whilst on the pilgrimage, Muslims participate in a series of meaningful rituals that ultimately relate to the prophets and Allah. Rituals that are implemented are the anti-clockwise circling of the Kaaba seven times, reflecting on the plains of Arafat, drinking from the well of Zamzam and travelling to the village of Mina where pilgrims participate in the stoning of the devil which consists of throwing pebbles at three stone…

The Pillow Fight My brother wasted no time to get back at my cousin. His hand seemed to have a sudden will of its own. He picked up the pillow and held on with a strong grip. His body was twisted counter-clockwise with his right arm stretched out, ready to give quite the smack. My brother closed his eyes but our eyes just got wider. Time slowed down and everything seemed to be in slow motion. A glass filled with water on the nightstand froze as the water rippled. The curtains that perpetually…

Hurricanes usually last for up to a week, in fact the longest hurricane lasted 28 days (Hurricane San Ciriaco). Hurricanes rotate different ways due to where they are located. In the north they rotate counterclockwise, as witch in the south they rotate clockwise. Hurricanes most likely occur in the months of June to November. When wind storms reach 75 miles per hour and you are by water , you know a hurricane is coming. Hurricanes form over warm water and use it as an energy source.…

Introduction Stereochemistry alludes to the science that reviews the properties of stereoisomers. It can likewise be characterized as the branch of chemistry concerned about the three-dimensional course of action of particles and atoms and the impact of this on concoction responses. A critical branch of stereochemistry is the investigation of chiral atoms. Stereochemistry is otherwise called 3D science in light of the fact that the prefix "stereo-" signifies "three-dimensionality". The primary…

Atmospheric Global Circulation is the movement of air caused by solar energy and the interaction of warm and cold air - this convergence forms cells or belts over the Earth’s surface. George Hadley (1685–1768) a British physicist and meteorologist, who first described this theory in 1753, did so using what is known as the Single-Cell Atmospheric Global Circulation Model or Hadley Cell (The Editors of Encyclopædia Britannica, 2007). Hadley’s Single-Cell theory failed to consider the Coriolis…
