Answer:

1. Earth rotates on its axis; this causes us to experience day and night.

2. The speed of light is 186000 miles per second

3. The four seasons happen because of the tilt of the Earth's axis. At different times of the year, the sun's rays hit different parts of the globe more directly. The angle of the Earth's axis tilts the Northern Hemisphere towards the sun during the summer.

Answer:

Seasons occur because of the tilt of the earth's axis which is at an angle of 23.5o. As the earth rotates, the sun rays hit different parts of the globe more directly than others... that's why in the UK its Summer when its Winter in Australia ie North/South hemisphere.

Google speed of light for eg mph, km/h etc but the exact figure is 299,792,458 metres per second

Compute the work performed when 32 pounds is lifted 10 feet.
Murljashka [212]
W = force * displacement
W = 32 pounds * 10 feet
Now you need to convert it to newton and meters
W = 142 N * 3.048 m = 434 J
(I approximated the conversions- I hope it helps)

Which is the one factor that adds to the greenhouse effect? 1. a decrease in the amount of dust in the atmosphere 2. a decrease
lukranit [14]

Answer:

an increase in gasses that absorb heat

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.

Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.50 mm above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: 4.65\ m/s

Explanation:

Given

Distance putty has to travel is 3.5 m

The initial speed of putty is 9.50 m/s

Using equation of motion to determine the velocity of putty just before it hits ceiling

v^2-u^2=2as

\Rightarrow v^2-(9.5)^2=2(-9.8)(3.5)\\\\\Rightarrow v^2=9.5^2-68.6\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{90.25-68.6}\\\Rightarrow v=4.65\ m/s

So, the velocity of putty just before hitting is 4.65\ m/s

A 25-cm rod moves at 5. 0 m/s in a plane perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength 0. 25 t. the rod, velocity vector, and ma
Bad White [126]

Length L = 25 cm = 0.25 m,  B = 600 G =  0.06 T ( 1G = 0.0001 T)

emf= 10 V

Solution:

emf = vBL

v= emf / BL

5 = emf/ (0.25 T× 0.25 m)

emf = 0.3125 v

Magnetic field

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, which is a vector field. A force perpendicular to the charge's own velocity and the magnetic field acts on it when the charge is travelling through a magnetic field.
