Does the sun sun traces shortest path across local sky on june solstice

1 answer:

7 0

The June solstice in the Northern hemisphere is the summer solstice. The June Solstice in the Southern hemisphere is the winter solstice. The summer solstice is equivalent to the longest day while the winter solstice is equivalent to the shortest day. Therefore on the local sky, when is the June solstice we have have the longest day (longest path of sun in the sky) in the Northern hemisphere and the shortest day (shortest path of sun in the sky) in the Southern hemisphere.

What happens when two waves meet

olganol [36]

Wave interference is the phenomenon that occurs when two waves meet while traveling along the same medium. The interference of waves causes the medium to take on a shape that results from the net effect of the two individualwaves upon the particles of the medium.Hope this help!

(25 pts) Estimate how much collector area and storage capacity would be required for an active solar hot-water system designed t

Aneli [31]

Answer:

The required total area is 1.48 m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Latitude = 44+° N

New Mexico,

Latitude= 35+° N

Heat capacity = 4200 J/Kg°C

Temperature = 60°C

Let us assume the input temperature 22°C

Estimate volume of water 100 ltr for 4 person.

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

$H=mc_{p}\Delta T$

$H=mc_{p}(T_{f}-T_{i})$

Put the value into the formula

$H=100\times4200\times(60-22)$

$H=15960\ KJ$ ...(I)

Let solar radiation for 6 hours/day.

We need to calculate the total energy per unit area

Using formula of energy

$E=1000\times6\times3600\ J/m^2$

$E=21600\ KJ/m^2$

Let the efficiency of collector is 50 %

Then, the total energy per unit area will be

$E=21600\times\dfrac{50}{100}$

$E=10800\ KJ/m^2$ ....(II)

We need to calculate the required total area

Using equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{H}{E}$

Where, H = heat

E = total energy

Put the value into the formula

$A=\dfrac{15960}{10800}$

$A=1.48\ m^2$

Hence, The required total area is 1.48 m²

A bomb of mass 6kg initially at rest explodes into two fragments of masses 4kg and2kg respectively. If the greater mass moves wi

Katen [24]

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s]

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

$P=m*v\\$

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

$P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s]$

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

$P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s]$

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!! What happens at the condensation point?A. Molecules of a liquid heat up and begin to convert to a gaseous

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D. Molecules of a gas slow down and change to a liquid state.

Explanation:

Condensation refers to a process by which a gas changes from gaseous state to liquid state. For example, water vapor changes to from the state of being a gas to liquid state water.
Condensation is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when gaseous particles slow down and change into liquid state.
Heat energy is lost during condensation and gaseous molecules lose kinetic energy making them to slow down and thus changing to liquid state,
