6 hours long, give or take a few minutes, you need to wait to see them arranged in a horizontal line if, at 8 pm, you see that the pointer stars of the big dipper and the star Polaris are arranged in a vertical line.

<h3 /><h3>What do you mean by pointer star?</h3>

The two prominent stars in Ursa Major known as the Pointer Stars can be utilized to locate Polaris, the North Star. The Big Dipper asterism includes the two stars Dubhe and Merak (Alpha and Beta Ursae Majoris). They trace the bowl of the Dipper's exterior. The direction of the North Star is indicated with a line that runs from Merak via Dubhe. Because it identifies the location of the celestial north pole, Polaris is significant in navigation. While other stars and constellations seem to revolve around it, the star is constantly found in the same location in the sky throughout the year.

What is the difference between diatomic and poly-atomic molecules? Site some examples.
Olegator [25]
Their difference lies in the prefix used before each root word, atom. The diatomic molecules are composed only of 2 atoms such as that of the diatomic elements: H2, O2, N2, Cl2, etc. On the other hand, polyatomic molecules are made up of three or mole atoms such as NH4+, H2SO4, etc.

A man hits a 50 grams golf ball such that it leaves the tee at an angle of 40o with the horizontal and strikes the ground at the
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Range of projectile R = 20 m

formula of range

R = u² sin2θ / g

u is initial velocity , θ is angle of projectile

putting the values

20 = u² sin2x 40 / 9.8

u² = 199

u = 14.10 m /s

At the initial point

vertical component of u

= u sin40 = 14.1 x sin 40

= 9.06 m/s

Horizontal component

= u cos 30

At the final point where the ball strikes the ground after falling , its speed remains the same as that in the beginning .

Horizontal component of velocity

u cos 30

Vertical component

= - u sin 30

= - 9.06 m /s

So its horizontal component remains unchanged .

change in vertical component = 9.06 - ( - 9.06 )

= 18.12 m /s

change in momentum

mass x change in velocity

= .050 x 18.12

= .906 N.s

Impulse = change in momentum

= .906 N.s .

Describe the kinetic molecular theory
tatuchka [14]
The kinetic theory of gases is a simple, historically significant model of the thermodynamic behavior of gases, with which many principal concepts of thermodynamics were established. The model describes a gas as a large number of identical submicroscopic particles, all of which are in constant, rapid, random motion
