Low altitudes are close to the equator. The temperatures are warmer as the latitude decreases, so they are very warm at low latitudes.

Answer:

Explanation:

Weather is the combination of the parameters temperature, precipitation, wind, humidity, atmospheric pressure and cloudiness. These parameters are called weather elements. Climate factors are agents such as latitude, prevailing winds, sea currents, distance to the sea, altitude and relief, which modify, accentuate or limit the elements of the climate and give rise to different types of climates.

As mentioned, latitude is one of the factors that change the weather. Latitude is the angular distance from a point on the surface of the earth to the equator. It is measured in degrees, minutes and seconds.

The closer a place is to the equator, the solar energy will affect more vertically and with more intensity on it, so the warmer the temperatures will be. The further that point of the equator is found, the solar energy will reach it with a smaller angle. And if the point is near the poles, the sun's rays will arrive at a very small angle and only for a few months. This will make temperatures very low all year.

That is, in summary, the places that are at high altitudes (far from the equator) receive less sunlight than the places that are at low latitudes (near the equator) because the sun's rays have a greater or lesser obliqueness ( angle) over the earth's surface.

First off, you need to know the weight of the projectile, lift and drag coefficients something like a high Reynolds number is preferred, then use the gravitational constant of 9.8 meters per second squared those would be a good start to get closer to your goal

A 350-g baseball is shot out of a small cannon with a velocity of 9.0 m/s. The baseball flies horizontally at a constant height
stira [4]

Answer:

9.5 kg m^2/s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of an object is given by:

L=mvr

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

r is the distance of the object from axis of rotation

Here we have:

m = 350 g = 0.35 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 9.0 m/s is the velocity

r = 3.0 m is the distance of the object from axis of rotation (if we take the ground as the centre of rotation)

Therefore, the angular momentum is:

L=(0.35)(9.0)(3.0)=9.5 kg m^2/s
