over Earth's surface?
Physics

Answer:

1. The precession of the equinoxes.

2. Changes in the tilt angle of Earth’s rotational axis relative to the plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun.

3. Variations in the eccentricity

Explanation:

These variations listed above;  the precession of the equinoxes (refers, changes in the timing of the seasons of summer and winter), this occurs on  a roughly about 26,000-year interval; changes in the tilt angle of Earth’s rotational axis relative to the plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, this occurs roughly in a 41,000-year interval; and changes in the eccentricity (that is a departure from a perfect circle) of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, occurring on a roughly 100,000-year timescale. which influences the mean annual solar radiation at the top of Earth’s atmosphere.

A bullet fired vertically at a velocity of 36m/s .after 45 the bullet hit the top of a bulid how height is a bulid?​
zzz [600]

Answer:

The height of the building is 8,302.5 m

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the projectile, u = 36 m/s

time of motion, t = 45 s

Let the upward direction of the bullet be negative,

The height of the building is calculated as;

h = ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (36\times 45) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 45^2)\\\\h = 1620 - 9922.5\\\\h = -8,302.5 \ m\\\\The \ height \ of \ the \ building \ is \ 8,302.5  \ m

______ involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity. Rehearsal is the verbal repetiti
adell [148]

Hi!


The answers would be <u>chunking</u> & <u>short-term</u>


1. <u>Chunking </u>involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Chunking is a mental process that is observed to increase short-term memory by taking the information and categorizing it into small groups. For instance, a longer number taken as a single unit is harder to recall then when it is divided into smaller units. 235469350 is harder to instantly recall as compared to when it is chunked into 3 groups: 235 469 350.

This allows more information to be stored in, thereby increasing the capacity of the mind to store information.


2. Rehearsal is the verbal repetition of information. These techniques are especially important for the improvement of <u>short-term</u> memory.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Short-term memory is lost after a couple of seconds or minutes, for instance even if you chunk the information, you might not recall it after 30 seconds. Rehearsing or repetition of information, either loudly or mentally, extends the time a particular information is retained.

So you depending on the number of times you repeat the number 235 469 350, the more your short term memory improves .


Hope this helps!
