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.

vlada-n [284]

The nervous system is a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells known as neurons that transmit signals between different parts of the body.

The somatic system consists of nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord with muscles and sensory receptors in the skin.

The basic unit of the nervous system is the "nerve cell," called "neuron

A ball rolls off the edge of a table with a fairly large horizontal velocity. Which of the following statements are true? (Selec

Degger [83]

Answer:

A.The vertical velocity is constantly increasing as the ball falls.

B.The horizontal velocity does not noticeably change as the ball falls.

G.The horizontal velocity does not affect how long it will take the ball to fall to the floor.

H.The velocity vector of the ball changes as it travels through the air.

Explanation:

As the ball is projected horizontally so here the vertical component of the velocity is zero

So the time to reach the ground is given as

$H = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

so we will have

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

so this is the same time as the ball is dropped from H height

Since there is no force in horizontal direction so its horizontal velocity will always remain constant while vertical velocity will change at constant rate which is equal to acceleration due to gravity.

So overall the velocity vector will change due to net acceleration g

It would not. Imagine four forces equal in magnitude but opposite in direction (e.g. north, east, south, and west). If these forces were to double in magnitude they would still have the same magnitude, meaning the net force is still equal to zero.
