Show that if the wind is blowing parallel to the isotherms that the temperature advection is zero.
Perform a scale analysis of the horizontal momentum equations for the vortex formed in your sink while draining by using typical scales given below. Which terms are important in this case? U~~0.01ms,W~~0.01ms,L~~0.01m,H~~0.1m,p~~0.1Pa,f~~10-4s-1,v=1.810-6m2s,a=107m,~~1000kgm3.
Assume that the gravity force at the surface is g0=9.80665ms2. Calculate the geopotential height at an altitude of 5000 meters for a) Gravity is constant with height and b) Gravity decreases with height.
For the following scalar fields find the magnitude of the gradient at the point indicated.
a.a(x,y,z)=2x3y2-xz-zln(y); (x,y,z)=(4,2,2)
b.a(x,y,z)=cosxsiny-z; (x,y,z)=(0,,1)
c.a(x,y)=x2+y2-16; (x,y)=(2,-2)
Show that if the wind is blowing parallel to the
