Geography

ArbitrLikvidat [17]3 years ago

The moon makes one full rotation around the earth every month (29.53 days). This means that it makes one 360 degree rotation every ~30 days, which is 12 degrees of movement per day. 

Since the earth rotates once every day, so it makes one 360 degree rotation every 24 hours.

To determine how many 'hours' later 12 degrees is, do: 12 degrees / 360 degrees * 24 hours(in a day) = .8 hours, which if you multiply by 60 you get 48 minutes.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The story of the European settlers in the USA (if that's what you mean) mimics the biblical story of the Israelites reaching the promised land in that they both believed that if they just came to this place of "milk and honey" they would be able to flourish, and truly enjoy life. This was true for the most part.

Answer:

C) homogeneity

Explanation:

All regions possess all of these characteristics, except for homogeneity. Homogeneity is a characteristic that describes a great similarity among the units that compose a region.

The aspects analyzed in order to judge these similarities are usually physical (climatic zones, botanic areas, etc.) or social (historical or cultural regions).
