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

How does the kinetic energy from the forward motion of a car traveling at 16 m/s
elena55 [62]

The kinetic energy in the first case is 4 times more than the second case.

Hence, option D)It is 4 times greater is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Kinetic Energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is simply a form of energy a particle or object possesses due to its motion.

It is expressed as;

K = (1/2)mv²

Where m is mass of the object and v is its velocity.

Given that;

  • For the first case, velocity v = 16m/s
  • For the second case, velocity = 8m/s
  • Let the mass of the car be m

For the first case, kinetic energy of the car will be;

K = (1/2)mv²

K = (1/2) × m × (16m/s)²

K = (1/2) × m × 256m²/s²

K = mass × 128m²/s²

For the second case, kinetic energy of the car will be;

K = (1/2)mv²

K = (1/2) × m × (8m/s)²

K = (1/2) × m × 64m²/s²

K = mass × 32m²/s²

Comparing the kinetic energy of the car with the same mass but different velocity, we can see that the kinetic energy in the first case is 4 times more than the second case.

Hence, option D)It is 4 times greater is the correct answer.

What is the main difference between the following two velocities: 7 m/s and -7m/s?
Serjik [45]

The difference between the above velocities is that they exist in opposite direction of each other. or it can be said that they are negative vectors of each other.

If there is an object in top of another object, why does the upper object exert a downward normal force?​
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

This is because normal force is exerted perpendicularly to the point of contact between the upper and lower objects.  

Explanation:

This is because the upper object is still subject to gravitational pull. Therefore, the amount of force it exerts on the lower object due to gravity will be equal to the normal force that acts in the negative direction of gravitational force. Additionally, normal force is evident because the upper object will not go into the lower object.
