How do lines of latitude affect how direct or indirect the Sun’s rays are on the Earth?

Physics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
8 0
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).

Explain why two different elements cannot occupy the same box in the periodic table
bezimeni [28]
They cant occupy the same box in the periodic table because each atom has a certain number of protons which is the atomic number and no two atoms have the same amount of protons.

It was a children versus grown-ups competition at school. One event required the adult to throw a basketball as far as he could.
aleksklad [387]
Based on Newton's Law, the event is not fair because:

<span>No, because a basketball is bigger than a baseball, and objects that are bigger accelerate slower.

Answer:

1) a radio are uses by astronomy

2) 6 bilion waves

3) expert vertified

Explanation:

1) in contrast to an "ordinary" telescope, which receives visible light, a radio telescope "sees" radio waves emitted by radio sources, typically by means of a large parabolic ("dish") antenna, or arrays of them.and Radio telescopes are also the primary means to track space probes, and are used in the SETI project. so must been

2) Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum.

3)Expert Verified

Radio telescopes are telescopes that are specially designed for observation of long light wavelengths

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin
bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

A 35-gram stainless steel ball on a track is moving at a velocity of 9 m/s. On the same track, a 75-gram stainless steel ball is
elena-s [515]

Answer:

4.2 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(35 g) (9 m/s) + (75 g) (-7 m/s) = (35 g) (-15 m/s) + (75 g) v

315 g m/s − 525 g m/s = -525 g m/s + (75 g) v

315 g m/s = (75 g) v

v = 4.2 m/s
