The most familiar non-contact force is gravity, which confers weight. In contrast a contact force is a force applied to a body by another body that is in contact with it. All four known fundamental interactions are non-contact forces: Gravity, the force of attraction that exists among all bodies that have mass.

15) Very cold climates occur at Earth's North and South Poles because the polar regions
Gwar [14]

Because the polar regions receive low-angle insolation.

Insolation is the amount of solar radiation received by a given area. The Sun is always low on the horizon. The low Sun angle makes the beam of solar radiation to travel a longer distance from upper troposphere to reach earth's surface as compared to when it is directly overhead. In this case, the radiations are scattered and reflected more by the atmosphere and spread over a larger area. Thus, the intensity of solar radiation is very less at polar regions than near the equatorial region. This is the reason of very cold climates at polar regions.

An ant carries a morsel of food 4.26 meters along a straight path to his nest. He then turns around and follows the path back to
Basile [38]
The displacement is zero. The most important concept to understand is the difference between displacement and total distance traveled. Total distance traveled would be tracking the length of the entire path the ant walked for the whole time (4.26m x 2). Displacement is how far from a designated origin (here, the food source) the ant ended up at the end of the time. Mathematically, the ant walked 4.26m from food source to nest (+4.26m) and then walked from the nest to food source (-4.26m), so the net displacement is [+4.26] + [-4.26] = 0m.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer would be 735J

Explanation:

PE=mgh

=(mass)(force of gravity)(height)

=(25kg)(9.8m/s^2)(3m)

=735J

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.
