Answer:(2) July

Explanation:

We all know the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

No matter where you are on Earth excluding the North and South Poles, you have a due east and due west point on your horizon. That point marks the intersection of your horizon with the celestial equator, the imaginary great circle above the true equator of the Earth.

This is to say that the sun rises close to due east and sets close to due west, for everyone at the equinox. The equinox sun is on the celestial equator. The celestial equator intersects your horizon at due east and due west irrespective of where you are on earth.

The sun rises due east and sets due west during the spring and fall equinoxes. Other times, the sun rises either north or south due east. There are slight changes in the rising and setting of the sun each day. At summer solstice, the sun rises far to the north east and set to the north west. Everyday, the sun rises a bit in furtherance to the south.

Therefore in Newyork state, during summer in July, the sun rise north of due east.

Does heat flow towards cold?

Liula [17]

Answer:

And unless people interfere, thermal energy — or heat — naturally flows in one direction only: from hot toward cold. Heat moves naturally by any of three means. The processes are known as conduction, convection and radiation. Sometimes more than one may occur at the same time.

At an instant a traffic light turns green an automobile that has been waiting at an intersection of the road accelerates with 5m

joja [24]

1) The car overtakes the truck at a distance of 160 m far from the intersection.

2) The velocity of the car is 40 m/s

Explanation:

The car is travelling with a constant acceleration starting from rest, so its position at time t (measured taking the intersection as the origin) is given by

$x_c(t) = \frac{1}{2}at^2$
