The Earth takes (365 and 1/4) days to orbit the sun.  That's the length of our 'year'.

Since it's not really possible to make our calendar a quarter of a day longer every year, we make the calendar a <u><em>whole</em></u> day longer every 4 years.

So "Leap years" make up for the extra one-fourth day the Earth takes to orbit the sun.

Does peer pressure affect your physical activity routine? Describe this peer pressure and tell whether it is positive or negativ
Alexxx [7]
Yes, peer pressure affects one's physical activity routine. It can do so both negatively and positively. For instance, if one is pressured to do drugs when around their peers, it would most likely lead to an addiction that lasts even when they are not with those people anymore. However, from a positive viewpoint, one's peers could also pressure them to do something productive, such as trying a new beneficial activity that they are afraid of (ex. trying out for a talent show.) This could lead to a disruption in routine as that individual would begin practicing for said talent show. Hence, peer pressure can be both negative and positive, but in both instances, it changes the routine of the individual effected.

Inessa05 [86]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
Acceleration = (4 m/s) / (8 seconds)
Acceleration = 0.5 m/s²

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (85 kg) x (0.5 m/s²)
Force = 42.5 Newtons
