Which type of satellite imagery is most useful for detecting the jet stream from space?
A) water vapor
B) infrared
C) enhanced infrared
D) visible
water vapour
In water vapour images the location of the jet stream can be identified as a strong gradient from high to low humidity.
Water vapor imagery is used to analyze the presence and movement of water vapor moisture in the upper and middle levels of the atmosphere. The wavelength spectrum used to detect water vapor is in the 6.7 to 7.3 micrometer wavelength range. The upper and middle levels of the atmosphere are from about 650 mb to the top of the troposphere.

39 Which of the following would be the most useful in detecting a newly emerging virus that cannot be cultivated in cell cultures? A) Nucleic acid amplification tests B) Plaque assay C) Transformation assay D) Indirect immunofluorescent assay
1 (a) A steady stream of water jet discharges from the nozzle with a uniform velocity of 10 m/s at angle 60° as shown in Figure 1. The jet strikes a horizontal plate 2 m above the nozzle exit. Upon impact, part of the flow is guided towards the left while the remainder towards the right, and the plate is suspended in the air. The weight of the plate is 25 N. Assume frictionless flow along the plate and weight...

If someone collects ribosomal sequences from a group of organisms, what is this data most useful for? a. Determining the types of environments where the organisms typically grow. b. Discerning ancient evolutionary relationships above the genus level. c. Detecting horizontal gene transfer. d. Distinguishing closely related species from the same genus.
Which of the following is arranged from shortest wavelength to longest? A. X-rays, visible, infrared B. infrared, visible, X-rays C. visible, infrared, X-rays D. infrared, X-Rays, visible 5. 7 8 R Y U
Name:AbalYauni Test 03Show Your Work EGR 212 31 One of the most advanced methods for cutting metal plates uses a high-velocity water jet which carries an abrasive garnet powder. The jet issues from the 0.01-in.-diameter nozzle at A and follows the path shown through the thickness t of the plate. As the plate is slowly moved to the right, the jet makes a nar- row precision slot in the plate. The water-abrasive mixture is used at the low rate of...
11. Which of the following is most useful in representing population growth on a graph? a. logarithmic reproduction of the growth curve b. a semilogarithmic graph using a log scale on the y-axis c. an arithmetic graph of the lag phase followed by a logarithmic section for the log, stationary, and death phases d. none of the above would best represent a population growth curve 12. Which of the following methods is best for counting fecal bacteria from a stream...

1. An 8000 kg satellite is launched from the surface of the Earth into outer space. What initial speed is needed by the satellite in order to reach a great (i.e., infinite) distance from the Earth, neglecting the effects of air resistance in the atmosphere?
