What do we have seasons on earth

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]2 years ago
8 0

Because the Earth's axis is not "straight up and down" as we move
around the sun. 

So when we're on one side of the sun, the top pole leans slightly toward
the sun.  During that time the sun shines more directly on the top half
of the Earth, and less directly on the bottom half.  The people on the
top half see the sun higher in the sky, and their weather is warmer,
while the people on the bottom half see the sun lower in the sky, and
their weather is cooler.

Then, when we're on the other side of the sun, the top pole leans slightly
away from the sun.  During that time the sun shines more directly on the
bottom half of the Earth, and less directly on the top half.  The people on
the bottom half see the sun higher in the sky, and their weather is warmer,
while the people on the top half see the sun lower in the sky, and their
weather is cooler.

The Earth makes the complete trip around the sun in one year, so the
people on the Earth go through this cycle of higher/lower sun and
warmer/cooler weather every year.

A bag of cement has a mass of 62 g. What is the mass of the bag of cement in S.I. units (kg)?
NNADVOKAT [17]

The mass of this bag of cement in S.I. units (kg) is equal to 0.062 kilograms.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Mass of cement = 62 grams.

To calculate the mass of this bag of cement in S.I. units (kg):

<h3>How to convert to S.I. units.</h3>

In Science, kilograms (kg) is the standard unit of measurement or S.I. units of the mass of a physical object. Thus, we would convert the value of the mass of this bag of cement in grams to kilograms (kg) as follows:

<u>Conversion:</u>

1000 grams = 1 kilograms.

62 grams = X kilograms.

Cross-multiplying, we have:

X = \frac{62}{1000}

X = 0.062 kilograms.

What velocity does a 2kg mass have when its kinetic energy is 16 J
alexandr402 [8]
We can use the equation for kinetic energy, K=1/2mv².
Your given variables are already in the correct units, so we can just plug in the variables and solve for v. 

K = 1/2mv²
16 = 1/2(2)v²
16 = (1)v²
√16 = v
v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of a 2 kg mass with 16 J of kinetic energy is 4 m/s.
Hope this is helpful!

I will mark as the brainliest answer<br><br>plz 8,9,10​
blagie [28]

Answer:

8.  acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 1 unit .

9. acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = -1 unit.

10. acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 0 units.

Explanation:

8. i) acceleration = velocity / time

  ii) In this figure velocity = time

  iii) therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)} = 1 unit .

9. i) acceleration = velocity / time

  ii) In this figure 4 = m + 5, therefore m = -1

     therefore velocity = (-0.5 \times time) + 5

  iii) therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = -1 units.

10.) velocity is constant at 2

     therefore acceleration = \dfrac{d(velocity)}{d(time)}  = 0 units
