Venus becomes hotter because it has a very thick atmosphere. An atmosphere is a layer of gasses surrounding a planet or a moon. An atmosphere stops heat from escaping. Venus' atmosphere is much thicker than Earth's. It is mostly made of a gas that ic called carbon dioxide.

<span>Venus is hotter due to the greenhouse effect: Venus has an atmosphere about ninety times thicker than that of Earth, and made almost entirely of carbon dioxide, which is one of the gasses that causes the greenhouse effect on Earth.</span>

A ship travels due east from Bar Harbor 38 miles before turning north. The ship's engine cuts out after a while and immediately

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Given:

Ship travels due east from the Bar Harbor 38 miles before turning north

Yes it possible to calculate the exact direction of the ship by assuming there are no large islands in the way, and that the isolated ship does not cut off very far, then what we have here is a right triangle with a 72-mile as hypotenuse and a 38-mile as "adjacent" side. If θ is the angle out of Bar Harbor, we can write

$cos\theta = \frac{38}{72} = 0.52778$ , and θ = 58.14457°, or 58° 8' 40" north of east. That will be the exact direction.
