Any object that is spherical in shape would best represent a true scale model of the shape of the Earth. Examples are ping pong balls, billiard balls, marble and other smooth spherical objects. The shape of the Earth is called the oblate spheroid. The "oblate" would refer to an oblong shape and "spheroid" would refer to an almost spherical shape. The earth has on almost spherical shape and has a slightly oblong appearance. The diameter from the South pole to the north pole was measured to have a value of 12714 km while the diameter of the equator is approximately 12756 km. As you can see, the values are not equal. This makes the earth not a perfect sphere.
Nicholas Copernicus correctly assumed that the planets revolved around the sun but he incorrectly assumed that the planets followed a perfect circle orbit around the sun. It was later on discovered by Johannes Kepler that the planets moved around the sun following an elliptical orbit.

Where
is the number of mushrooms in a pizza and
the number of pizzas.
If we know the restaurant will make 8 pizzas (

This is the needed number of mushrooms for 8 pizzas
Answer:
s = 11.78 m
Explanation:
given,
acceleration due to gravity, g = 3.77 m/s²
mass of the rock = 15 g
time = 2.5 s
distance traveled = ?
using equation of motion

initial speed = 0 m/s


s = 11.78 m
distance traveled by the rock is equal to 11.78 m.
Answer:
434 Hz
Explanation:
According to the Doppler effect, when a source of a wave is moving towards an observer at rest, then the observer will observe an apparent frequency which is higher than the original frequency of the source.
In this situation, Tina is driving towards Rita. Tina is the source of the sound wave (the horn), while RIta is the observer. Since the original frequency of the sound is 400 Hz, Rita will hear a sound with a frequency higher than this value.
The only choice which is higher than 400 Hz is 434 Hz, so this is the frequency that Rita will hear.
