A hot-air balloon stays aloft because hot air at atmospheric pressure is less dense than cooler air at the same pressure. If the volume of the balloon is 500.0 m^3 and the surrounding air is at 15.0°C. What must the temperature of the air in the balloon be for it to lift a total load of 290 kg (in addition to the mass of the hot air)? The density of air at 15.0°C and atmospheric pressure is 1.23kg/m^3.

Afisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. it takes a time of 2.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.670 m . the fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.80 m apart. (a) how much is the wavelength? (b) find the period of the wave. (c) how fast are the waves traveling? (d) what is the amplitude a of each wave?

The number of passengers who arrive at the platform of a subway station for the 10 am train is a random variable with a mean of 120 and a variance of 16. find the lower bound of the probability that there will be between 100 and 140 passengers (round off to second decimal place).

In the united states, tornadoes generally occur because of the freezing of ocean water underwater earthquakes meeting of cool and warm air masses shifting of warm and cool ocean currents
