That is why both work and energy are measured in Joules. To do the work I applied a force (equal to the weight of the book) to the book from the floor to the tabletop.Workequals the force times the distance, in units of Newtons times Meters. Therefore 1 Newton-Meter (NM) equals 1 Joule.

Do thunderstorms occur during tsunami?

Tsunamis and thunderstorms are completely unrelated phenomena. It is definitely possible for a thunderstorm and a tsunami to occur in the same place at the same time, but it would be entirely by coincidence.


How many thunderstorms does Florida usually get every year?

No offense, but this is a stupid question. This is a stupid question because every year the thunderstorms in Florida occur at different times and they are never at the same time or lengths.


How often do thunderstorms occur?

Thunderstorm frequency varies according to the location. Hot and humid climates experience thunderstorm activity at a far higher rate than deserts or cold climates. The map at the related link below shows where thunderstorms occur worldwide and their frequency.


How many thunderstorms are happening right now?

you can work this out reasonably accurately and we used to so this for senior school physics. The earth has a finite defined capacity, and charge. Taking into account the average voltage in a lightning strike, it gives an answer of approximately two thousand thunderstorms occurring at any one time, somewhere in the world. Sounds amazing, but the world is big!


What time of year does a thunderstorm occur?

The most likely time of year for thunderstorms is late spring through the summer. They can occur at any time of the year if the conditions are right.


What time do summer thunderstorms happen?

Summer thunderstorms typically occur in the late afternoon or evening when temperatures are highest and instability is greatest. This is when the atmosphere is most conducive to the formation of thunderstorms due to the combination of warm air at the surface and cooler air aloft.


The number of births that occur in a period of time in a given area?

A birth rate is a number of births that occur in a period of time in a given area.


How many thunderstorms occur daily in the US?

On average, there are about 25 million cloud-to-ground lightning strikes in the United States each year, which could result in several thousand thunderstorms occurring daily across the country. The frequency of thunderstorms can vary depending on the region and time of year.


What time of day do tornadoes usually occur and why?

Although they can occur at any time of day, tornadoes are most common in the late afternoon and early evening. This is when the lower atmosphere is usually the warmest and thus the atmosphere is usually the most unstable. These conditions are conducive for the formation of strong thunderstorms which, given a few other conditions, can produce tornadoes.
