Currents during lightning strikes can be up to 50000 A (or more!). We can model such a strike as a 47500 A vertical current perpendicular to the earth's magnetic field, which is about 12 gauss.
a. What is the force on each meter of this current due to the earth's magnetic field?

You will be galileo perform the experiment to determine if objects with different mass fall at the same, or different, rates in the air and in a vacuum. (refer to the walk-through video to locate the online lab within the online textbook).

You've already seen the value of 9.8 in this lesson. what's this value called? what quantity does it represent?

As seen in a us weather map, the h (or high) and l (or low) symbols indicate regions where surface air pressures are high or low, respectively, compared to surrounding areas. an h is plotted where the air pressure is highest and an l is plotted where the air pressure is lowest. proceeding outward and away from the center of a high pressure system, the air pressure "
