When do both hemispheres receive the same amount of the sun's energy?

Physics
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Both hemispheres receive the same amount of sunlight during <em>both autumnal equinox and vernal equinox </em>

Explanation:

The vernal or spring equinox happens around March 20 or thereabouts yearly. Equinoxes and various seasons happen as the Earth orbits the Sun and the Earth's orbit. Thus, we have Autumn equinox and spring or vernal equinox. During the Northern hemisphere spring and summer, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun while during the Autumn and winter the northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.

During the autumn and spring equinoxes, the earth is neither tilted away or towards the sun. This means that both northern and southern hemisphere receive equal sunlight during these periods: that is hours of daylight and night are roughly about the same.

The amount of energy lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy is about _______. a. 10% b. 50%
Sophie [7]

The amount of energy lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy is about 90%.

There are a total of 4 trophic levels.

The producers which bare plants represent the first trophic level. Herbivores represent the second trophic level. Carnivores represent the third trophic level. Top carnivores represent the fourth trophic level.

The 10 % rule is followed by the energy flow in a food chain. It means that moving from one trophic level to another, only 10% of energy is transferred and the rest is lost in the atmosphere.

So the 90% percent energy is lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy.

A ball is thrown straight upward and returns to the thrower’s hand after 1.8 s in the air. A second ball is thrown at an angle o
zysi [14]

Answer:

U = 9.1 m/s

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following

time (t) = 1.8 s

angle = 23 degrees

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

let us first calculate the initial velocity (u) which too the first ball to its maximum height from the equation below

v = u + 0.5at

  • The final velocity (v) is zero since the ball comes to rest
  • The time (t) it takes to get to the maximum height would  be half the time it is in the air, t = 0.5 x 1.8 = 0.9

therefore

0 = u - (0.5 x 9.8 x 0.9)

u = 7.9 m/s

for the second ball to get to the maximum height of the first ball, the vertical component of its initial velocity (U) must be the same as the initial velocity of the first ball. therefore

U sin 60 = 7.9

U = 7.9 ÷ sin 60

U = 9.1 m/s

To provide some perspective on the dimensions of atomic defects, consider a metal specimen that has a dislocation density of 105
-Dominant- [34]

Explanation:

LD₁ = 10⁵ mm⁻²

LD₂ = 10⁴mm⁻²

V = 1000 mm³

Distance = (LD)(V)

Distance₁ = (10⁵mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 10×10⁷mm = 10×10⁴m

Distance₂ = (10⁹mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 1×10¹² mm = 1×10⁹ m

Conversion to miles:

Distance₁ = 10×10⁴ m / 1609m = 62 miles

Distance₂ = 10×10⁹m / 1609 m = 621,504 miles.
