How would seasons on earth be different if the earth was not tilted on its axis

1 answer:

5 0

If the Earth's axis were 'straight' ... pefectly perpendicular to the ecliptic
plane ... then:

-- Day and night would be the same length ... every day of the year,
everywhere on Earth !

-- There wouldn't be any seasons, anywhere. There might still be some
'weather' ... cloudy days, sunny days, occasional rain, wind etc. But
there would be no average change during the year. No hot months or
cold months. In any one place, the weather would always be generally
the same, every day, all year. Everywhere all around the equator would be
generally the hottest on Earth, and the local climates would generally get
cooler as you moved away from the equator and toward the poles.

Alex777 [14]

False because currents do not flow easily through insulators. If it only said conductors, then it would be true.

Answer:

medium

Explanation:

A sound medium is defined as channel through which sound can travel or be transmitted.

Sound medium could be in the form gases, liquids, solids or plasmas. Space is made up of vacuum and therefore, has no medium within it. Hence, space cannot transmit sound in any form or allows sound to travel through it.

A silver wire has a cross sectional area a = 2.0 mm2. a total of 9.4 × 1018 electrons pass through the wire in 3.0 s. the conduc

marta [7]

This problem uses the relationships among current I, current density J, and drift speed vd. We are given the total of electrons that pass through the wire in t = 3s and the area A, so we use the following equation to to find vd, from J and the known electron density n, so:

$v_{d} = \frac{J}{n\left | q \right |}$

The current I is any motion of charge from one region to another, so this is given by:

 $I = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{9.4x1018electrons}{3s} = 3189.73(A)$

The magnitude of the current density is:

$J = \frac{I}{A} = \frac{3189.73}{2x10^{-6}} = 1594.86(A/m^{2})$

Being:

$A=2mm^{2} = 2x10^{-6}m^{2}$

Finally, for the drift velocity magnitude vd, we find:

 $v_{d} = \frac{1594.86}{5.8x1028\left |1.60x10^{-19}|\right } = 1.67x10^{18}(m/s)$

Notice: The current I is very high for this wire. The given values of the variables are a little bit odd

What is the speed of sound at 33 °C (m/s)? For a frequency of 5 kHz, how large do you expect the wavelength to be (m)?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

-The speed of sound at 33°C is 362.8 m/s.

-The wavelength at a frequency at 5 kHz is 0.07256 m .

Explanation:

let v = 343 m/s be the speed of sound.

let T be the temperature.

then the speed of sound V, at 33°C is given by:

V = v + 0.6×T

= 343 + 0.6×33

= 362.8 m/s

Therefore, the speed of sound at 33°C is 362.8 m/s.

the wavelength at a frequency of f = 5kHz = 5000 Hz is given by:

λ = V/f

= (362.8)/(5000)

= 0.07256 m

Therefore, the wavelength at a frequency at 5 kHz is 0.07256 m .
