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:
As the velocity of light is constant so the acceleration of the light is equal to zero.
a= dv/dt
Explanation:
Answer:
There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel.
Yes, you can form the shadow of a fire

Explanation:
It is given that,
Force, ![F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F%3D%28-8%5C%20N%29i%2B%286%5C%20N%29j)
Position vector, ![r=(3i+4j)\ m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%283i%2B4j%29%5C%20m)
(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :
![\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctau%3DF%5Ctimes%20r%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ctau%3D%28-8i%2B6j%29%5Ctimes%20%283i%2B4j%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ctau%3D%28-50k%29%5C%20N-m)
(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :
![F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F%7B%5Ccdot%7D%20r%3D%7CF%7C%7Cr%7C%5C%20%5Ccos%5Ctheta%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ccos%5Ctheta%3D%5Cdfrac%7BF%7B%5Ccdot%7D%20r%7D%7B%7CF%7C%20%7Cr%7C%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ccos%5Ctheta%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%28-8i%2B6j%29%7B%5Ccdot%7D%20%283i%2B4j%29%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%28-8%29%5E2%2B6%5E2%7D%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csqrt%7B3%5E2%2B4%5E2%7D%20%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ccos%5Ctheta%3D%5Cdfrac%7B-24%2B24%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%28-8%29%5E2%2B6%5E2%7D%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csqrt%7B3%5E2%2B4%5E2%7D%20%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ccos%5Ctheta%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Ctheta%3D90%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7D)
Hence, this is the required solution.
The candle flame releases hot gases, which directly go in upwards directions. Due to which the air near the flame of the candle is very hot and dense. The particles along with vapour move up. And since the sideways, the air is not very dense and hot, we are able to hold the candle. In anti-gravity region, there will be no density differences and also, the convection process wont occur. So, the candle quickly snuffs off.
