If a foot ball match is going to be aired at 9 hrs G.M.T Sunday. At what time and day fans located at 40 degrees east Addis Abab
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: Sunday at 12h.

Explanation: The timezones are determined by the meridians, i.e., the longitudinal lines that crosses the Earth from pole to pole.

The initial referential is at GMT, abbreviation for <u>Greenwich</u> <u>Mean</u> <u>Time</u>, located at the Royal Observatory in the United Kingdom.

The Earth rotates 360° in 24 hours, so each 15° is exposed to the Sun for 1 hour. So, at each 15° we add an hour if the location is due to east or subtract an hour if the location is due to west.

Addis Ababa is located at 40°, which is in the band between 30° and 45°.

Counting from the referential, there are 3 timezones going east. So, we add 3 hours to the initial hour:

9h + 3h = 12h

And the day is the same since the difference is only 3 hours ahead.

Thus, fans located at 40° east will watch a football match on Sunday at 12h.

Which of the following is a renewable resource?
makvit [3.9K]
<h3>Answer: C) Sunlight</h3>

Coal, uranium, and natural gas are all drawn from the earth. These items are limited in nature and will run out someday. So they are not considered renewable. On the other hand, sunlight is effectively unlimited in terms of how long the sun will last (for a few more billion years or so), which is why sunlight is considered a renewable resource.

Water near the equator is warmer than water at the poles. Which sentence explains why?
shusha [124]

Hi there!

You will have already be known that the <em>sun's rays are closest to the equatorial regions</em> <em>than</em> the <em>polar regions</em>. So the stronger heat rays reach the equator first, heating it's water faster. Within the span of time when the rays reach the polar areas (poles), the sun rays become slanted, leading it into the ocean waters.

Also, the sharpness or intensity of the rays gets weakened, thereby heating the water of polar regions less.

Using this fact, we can say that the rays falling near the equator heats the water more than the rays heating the water at poles.

Hence, we can say that <u>D) </u><u>T</u><u>he sun heats earth and it ocean unevenly</u> will be your answer.

Thank you !
