Great experiment ! Everybody should try it if they can get the equipment.
It demonstrates a lot of things that are very hard to explain in words.
I hope the students remembered to tilt the axis of the globe. If they didn't,
and instead kept it straight up and down, then each city had pretty much
the same amount of bulb-light all the way around, and there were no seasons.
If the axis of the globe was tilted, then City-D had the least variation in
seasons. City-D is only 2° from the equator, so the sun is more direct
there all year around than it is at any of the others.
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the pythagoras theorem, the displacement is expressed as;
d² = x²+y²
y = 36m (north)
x = 20m east
Substitute;
d² = 36²+20²
d² = 1296+400
d² = 1696
d = √1696
d = 41.18m
For the direction;
theta = tan^-1(y/x)
theta = tan^-1(36/20)
theta = tan^-1(1.8)
theta = 60.95°
Hence the magnitude is 41.18m and the direction is 60.95°
The acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².
<h3>How to calculate acceleration?</h3>
The acceleration of a freight train can be calculated using the following formula:
Force = mass × acceleration
According to this question, a 600,000kg freight train can produce 100,000N of force. The acceleration is as follows:
100,000 = 600,000 × a
100,000 = 600,000a
a = 0.167m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².

The mass of Mg-24 is 24.30506 amu, it contains 12 protons and 12 neutrons.
Theoretical mass of Mg-24:
The theoretical mass of Mg-24 is:
Hydrogen atom mass = 12 × 1.00728 amu = 12.0874 amu
Neutron mass = 12 x 1.008665 amu = 12.104 amu
Theoretical mass = Hydrogen atom mass + Neutron mass = 24.1913 amu
Note that the mass defect is:
Mass defect = Actual mass - Theoretical mass : 24.30506 amu- 24.1913 amu= 0.11376 amu
Calculating the binding energy per nucleon:
So approximately 4.41294 Mev/necleon
Answer: 1.2 m/s
Explanation:
Velocity 
is defined as the variation of position of an object or body in time. So, if we know the distance the seed traveled and the time, we can calculate its velocity:
Where:
is the distance the maple seed traveled
is the time
Then:
This is the seed's velocity
