a). Perihelion . . . the point in Earth's orbit that's closest to the Sun.
We pass it every year early in January.
b). Aphelion . . . the point in Earth's orbit that's farthest from the Sun.
We pass it every year early in July.
c). Proxihelion . . . a made-up, meaningless word
d). Equinox . . . the points on the map of the stars where the Sun
appears to be on March 21 and September 21.
Answer:
10.23m/s^2
Explanation:
GIven data
mass of elevator = 2125 kg
Force= 21,750 N
Required
The maximum acceleration upward
F= ma
a= F/m
a=21,750/2125
a= 10.23m/s^2
Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2
The correct answer is<span> B.The speed of sound in air is directly proportional to the temperature of the air.
When the temperature increases so does the speed of sound. Sound is faster by </span>0.60 m/s for every higher degree in air temperature because the air density is reduced and the sound can travel faster.
The main (and only) purpose of the turbine in the turbo jet engine is to drive the air compressor. The turbojet engine works by compressing the air using an inlet and a compressor, then mixing the fuel with the compressed air, then passing the mixture to the combustor, then passing the high pressure air through a turbine and a nozzle.
Option (b) is correct.The index of refraction for the glass is 1.52
Explanation:
velocity of light in vacuum= C= 2.99 x 10⁸m/s
Velocity of light in glass = V= 1.97 x 10⁸m/s
The refractive index is given by n=
n= 2.99 x 10⁸/1.97 x 10⁸m/s
n= 1.52
Thus the refractive index of glass is 1.52
