Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

U c = {(A \cdot B \cdot (p n - p c) \cdot \frac{\exp (- \frac{A}{r^{B}})}{ρ \cdot r^{B}})}^{0.5}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

U c = {(50m \cdot 5 \cdot (974.9mbar - 965mbar) \cdot \frac{\exp (- \frac{50m}{{48m}^{5}})}{1.293kg/m³ \cdot {48m}^{5}})}^{0.5}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

U c = {(50m \cdot 5 \cdot (97490Pa - 96500Pa) \cdot \frac{\exp (- \frac{50m}{{48m}^{5}})}{1.293kg/m³ \cdot {48m}^{5}})}^{0.5}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

U c = {(50 \cdot 5 \cdot (97490 - 96500) \cdot \frac{\exp (- \frac{50}{48^{5}})}{1.293 \cdot 48^{5}})}^{0.5}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

U c = 0.0274084958869213

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

U c = 0.0274

How to Evaluate Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed?

Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed evaluator uses Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed = (Scaling Parameter*Parameter Controlling Peakedness*(Ambient Pressure at Periphery of Storm-Central Pressure in Storm)*exp(-Scaling Parameter/Arbitrary Radius^Parameter Controlling Peakedness)/(Density of Air*Arbitrary Radius^Parameter Controlling Peakedness))^0.5 to evaluate the Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed, The Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed formula is defined as it can be an approximation to the real wind in the atmosphere only near the equator, where Coriolis acceleration is small; or in cases of very great wind speed and curvature of a path (such as a tornado or hurricane), so that centripetal acceleration is dominant one. Cyclostrophic Approximation to Wind Speed is denoted by U_c symbol.
