Precise measurements of earth indicate that its polar diameter is

Physics
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

12713.6 km (7899.86 mi)

Explanation:

The polar diameter of Earth is slightly shorter that the equitorial diameter of the earth. The polar diameter to be precise is 12713.6 km (7899.86 mi), whereas the equitorial diameter is about 12756 Km (7926 mi). This mean that objects located along the equator are about 21 km further away from centwe of the Earth than objects located on the poles.

a certain projetor uses a concave mirror for projecting an object's image on a screen .it produces on image that is 4 times bigg
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

f = 1 m

Explanation:

The magnification of the lens is given by the formula:

M = \frac{q}{p}

where,

M = Magnification = 4

q = image distance = 5 m

p = object distance = ?

Therefore,

4 = \frac{5\ m}{p}\\\\p = \frac{5\ m}{4}\\\\p = 1.25\ m

Now using thin lens formula:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{1.25\ m}+\frac{1}{5\ m}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = 1\ m^{-1}\\\\

<u>f = 1 m</u>

A skier is accelerating down a 30.0-degree hill at 3.80 m/s^2.
Bond [772]

Answer:

ax = -3.29[m/s²]

ay = -1.9[m/s²]

Explanation:

We must remember that acceleration is a vector and therefore has magnitude and direction.

In this case, it is accelerating downwards, therefore for a greater understanding we will make a diagram of said vector, this diagram is attached.

a_{x}=-3.8*cos(30) = -3.29 [m/s^{2}]\\ a_{y}=-3.8*sin(30) = -1.9 [m/s^{2}]

Answer:
They are both wrong!

Liquid oxygen really is a pale blue color.
I’ve seen it.

And they cant say that liquid and solid oxygen is blue which makes the sky blue because they’re not and it doesn’t make up for the color of the sky.

The sky is actually blue because It reflects more light than It can absorb
aka Rayleigh Scattering.

A Carnot engine has a power output of 150 kW. The engine operates between two reservoirs at 20.0°C and 500°
Nookie1986 [14]
Efficiency η of a Carnot engine is defined to be: 
<span>η = 1 - Tc / Th = (Th - Tc) / Th </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>Tc is the absolute temperature of the cold reservoir, and </span>
<span>Th is the absolute temperature of the hot reservoir. </span>

<span>In this case, given is η=22% and Th - Tc = 75K </span>
<span>Notice that although temperature difference is given in °C it has same numerical value in Kelvins because magnitude of the degree Celsius is exactly equal to that of the Kelvin (the difference between two scales is only in their starting points). </span>

<span>Th = (Th - Tc) / η </span>
<span>Th = 75 / 0.22 = 341 K (rounded to closest number) </span>
<span>Tc = Th - 75 = 266 K </span>

<span>Lower temperature is Tc = 266 K </span>
<span>Higher temperature is Th = 341 K</span>

An atom contains 15 neutrons and has a mass number of 30. What is its atomic number? How did you determine the atomic number?
irinina [24]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

The mass number is defined as the total number of protons and neutrons. The atomic number is total number of protons. And since we have the mass number and number of neutrons, we can use simple subtraction (30 - 15) to find that the atomic number is 15.
