Why are average temperatures higher at the equator than near the poles?

2 answers:

8 0

The poles are on either side of the sun so therefore the equator is constantly the closest to the sun and gets the most heat

Bc the equator is constantly facing the sun while the earth rotates

Describe how a planet, solar system, galaxy, and the universe are related in terms of size.

Alexus [3.1K]

- The Solar System contains the sun and objects that orbit it, including the eight planets, comets, and asteroids, and the Galaxy contains about 100 billion stars, of which the sun is one, as well as large clouds of gas and dust. - The universe contains all physical matter and energy

So Therefore Universe Is the biggest terms of size because it contains all physical matter and energy hope it helps

A 22-turn circular coil of wire has diameter 1.02 m. It is placed with its axis along the direction of the Earth's magnetic fiel

ollegr [7]

Answer:

ξ = 0.00845020162 V or 8.4 mV

Explanation:

Magnetic flux measures the total magnetic field that passes through a known area. Magnetic flux describe the effect of magnetic field in a given area. Mathematically,

magnetic flux (Ф) = BA cos ∅

where

A = test area

B = magnetic field

before the flip

Ф = Bπr²N

N = number of turn

magnitude of induced emf = N |ΔФ/Δt|

ξ = 2Nπr²B/dt

ξ = 2 × 22 × π × (1.02/2)² × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 44 × π × 0.51² × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 44 × π × 0.2601 × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 0.0005378868 × 3.142/0.2

ξ = 0.00169004032/0.2

ξ = 0.00845020162 V or 8.4 mV

Consider the power dissipated in a series R–L–C circuit with R=280Ω, L=100mH, C=0.800μF, V=50V, and ω=10500rad/s. The current an

ki77a [65]

Answer:

0.28802

2.57162 W

14.28 W

53.55 W

6.07142 W

Explanation:

R = 280Ω

L = 100 mH

C = 0.800 μF

V = 50 V

ω = 10500rad/s

For RLC circuit impedance is given by

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=\sqrt{R^2+(\omega L-\dfrac{1}{\omega C})^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=\sqrt{280^2+(10500\times 100\times 10^{-3}-\dfrac{1}{10500\times 0.8\times 10^{-6}})^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=972.1483\ \Omega$

Power factor is given by

$F=\dfrac{R}{Z}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{280}{972.1483}\\\Rightarrow F=0.28802$

The power factor is 0.28802

The average power to the circuit is given by

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{Z}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{50^2}{972.1483}\\\Rightarrow P=2.57162\ W$

The average power to the circuit is 2.57162 W

Power to resistor

$P_R=IR\\\Rightarrow P_R=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times 280\\\Rightarrow P_R=14.28\ W$

Power to resistor is 14.28 W

Power to inductor

$P_L=IX_L\\\Rightarrow P_L=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times 10500\times 100\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow P_L=53.55\ W$

Power to the inductor is 53.55 W

Power to the capacitor

$P_C=IX_C\\\Rightarrow P_C=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times \dfrac{1}{10500\times 0.8\times 10^{-6}}\\\Rightarrow P_C=6.07142\ W$

The power to the capacitor is 6.07142 W

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

$m = \frac{40}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

How does seismic waves cause earthquakes?

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Seismic waves cause Earthquakes by shaking the ground aggressively and dangerously. These waves are usually calculated on a seismograph to calculate how hard the earthquake hit that area. A transform Boundary creates the tension when the tectonic plates gets stuck. It stays stuck for a long period of time. Then, at one point, the tectonic plates become unstuck which releases the tension into waves which are called seismic waves. Hope I answered you question.
