C. 23.5 degrees
This tilt in the axis causes the seasons.
Hope this helps.

The Earth's axis is about 66.5 degrees out of the plane of the orbit.
It's about 23.5 degrees away from being "straight up and down".

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$ 3085713685.71

Explanation:

$\lambda_0$ = Actual wavelength = 700 nm

$\lambda$ = Changed wavelength = 500 nm

Let the wavelength of red color be 700 nm and green be 500 nm

Change in wavelength is

$\Delta \lambda=700-500\\\Rightarrow \theta\lambda=200\ nm$

We have the relation

$\dfrac{\Delta\lambda}{\lambda_0}=\dfrac{v}{c}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{\Delta\lambda}{\lambda_0}c\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{200}{700}\times 3\times 10^8\\\Rightarrow v=85714285.7143\ m/s$

The speed of the vehicle is 85714285.7143 m/s

$\dfrac{85714285.7143\times 3600}{1000}=308571428.571\ km/h$

By how much was the car speeding

$308571428.571-60=308571368.571\ km/h$

The number of 10 km/h in the above speed

$308571368.571\times\dfrac{1}{10}=30857136.8571$

Cost of the ticket

$30857136.8571\times 100=\$ 3085713685.71$

The cost of the ticket is $ 3085713685.71

A wheel that was initially spinning is accelerated at a constant angular acceleration of 5.0 rad/s^2. After 8.0 s, the wheel is

notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) Final angular speed = 70 rad/s

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

Here s = 400 radians

t = 8 s

a = 5 rad/s²

Substituting

400 = u x 8 + 0.5 x 5 x 8²

u = 30 rad/s

Initial angular speed = 30 rad/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Here u = 30 rad/s

t = 8 s

a = 5 rad/s²

Substituting

v = 30 + 5 x 8 = 70 rad/s

Final angular speed = 70 rad/s
