The answer would be B) Competition for resources became more intense among some European nations. Raw materials were not found in Europe, they were most likely found on countries like Africa.
Oenopides was the first to discover and measure the tilt.
He came up with about 24 degrees around 480BCe using geometry and measurements of sun angles at several times of year.
Hope this helps
The Earth’s interior is composed of several layers: the crust, the mantle and the core. Scientists used waves and their speed to study the Earth's interior. The speed of seismic waves is affected by the properties of the material the waves pass through. The stiffness of material affects the speed of these waves. P-waves, or pressure waves, go through both liquids and solids, while S-waves, or shear waves go through solids but not liquids. The following helped scientists understand that Earth's interior is liquid: S waves cannot travel through liquids. Correct answer: D
Answer:
answer 15 correct option is b. 73.7°
answer 16 correct option is с. 47°
Explanation:
we know that on 4th july Northen hemisphere have summer and Washington, D.C also in Northen hemisphere
and sun present at 23.5° latitude
so latitude of sun is calculate as given figure below
= 90° - ( 39° - 23.5° )
= 74.5°
so correct option is b.73.7
this difference if because we take latitude 23.5° that is approx on 24 july
but july 4 latitude will be some low
and
we know during summer declination angle is + 23.5 in N.H.
and during winder declination angle is - 23.5 in N.H.
and at spring and autumn sun is at equator
the declination angle change is
declination angle change = 27.5 + 27.5 = 47°
