The technical definition of latitude is the angular distance north or south from the earth's equator measured through 90 degrees. ... Locations at lower latitudes receive stronger and more direct sunlight than locations near the poles. Energy input from the sun is the main driving force in the atmosphere.
The Seasons at Different Latitudes
The seasonal effects are different at different latitudes on Earth. Near the equator, for instance, all seasons are much the same. Every day of the year, the Sun is up half the time, so there are approximately 12 hours of sunshine and 12 hours of night.
When we consider Latitude alone as a control, we know that the low latitudes (say from the Equator to approximately 30 degrees N/S) are the warmest across the year (on an annual basis).
<span>Infrared radiation also called as infrared light was discovered by Sir William Herschel in 1800.It is an electronic magnetic radiation with longer wavelengths than those of a visible light.It involves waves rather than particles. It lies at frequencies just below the frequencies of visible light.</span>
Answer:
0.911 atm
Explanation:
In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.
Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:
"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"
Mathematically:
where
p is the gas pressure
T is the absolute temperature
For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:
where in this problem:
is the initial pressure of the gas
is the initial absolute temperature of the gas
is the final temperature of the gas
Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:
Answer:
16250 kgm/s due south
Explanation:
Applying,
M = mv................. Equation 1
Where M = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity.
From the car,
Given: m = 1000 kg, v = 6.5 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
M = 1000(6.5)
M = 6500 kgm/s
For the truck,
Given: m = 3500 kg, v = 6.5 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
M' = 3500(6.5)
M' = 22750 kgm/s.
Assuming South to be negative direction,
From the question,
Total momentum of the two vehicles = (6500-22750)
Total momentum of the two vehicles = -16250 kgm/s
Hence the total momentum of the two vehicles is 16250 kgm/s due south
