<span>b. less climatic variation between the summer and winter seasons in the middle and high latitudes

As the tilt becomes higher (approaches 24 degrees) there is greater variation between the summer and winter months, due to the fact that the tilt toward the sun in the summer and away from the sun in the winter are more pronounced. </span>

The speed limit on some interstate highways is roughly 80 km/h. What is this in meters per second? How many miles per hour is th
sergey [27]

Answer:

1) Speed in m/s equals 22.22 m/s.

2) Speed in miles per hour equals 49.712 mph.

Explanation:

Since we know that in 1 kilometer there are 1000 meters and in 1 hour there are 3600 seconds hence we can write

80km/h=\frac{80\times 1000m}{3600s}=22.22m/s

Now we know that 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometer  hence we conclude that 1 kilometer equals \frac{1}{1.609}=0.6214mile

Hence

80km/h=\frac{80\times 0.6214miles}{1h}=49.712mph

A single-phase transformer has a turns ratio of 20,000/5,000. If a DC voltage of 50 V is applied to the primary winding, what wi
Kipish [7]

Sneaky question.

The secondary voltage will be zero.

Secondary voltage is the result of CHANGES in the primary voltage. That means the primary is energized with AC. The transformer in this question is energized with DC, which doesn't change. So there is no secondary voltage, this transformer doesn't work, and what you get out of it is: Smoke !

The period of a mechanical wave is 5 seconds. what is the frequency of the wave?
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The frequency of a wave is just the reciprocal of the period.
For this one . . .

     Frequency  =  1/(period)  =  1/(5 sec)  =  0.2 per sec (0.2 Hz) .
