Answer:

23.5 degree North

Explanation:

The latitude of the vertical (direct) rays of the sun is 23.5 degree North. This is however due to the sun's vertical rays being located directly above 23.5 degree South which is the position of the Tropic of Capricorn.

The sun ray is highest at this pap tion and it occurs during Summer solstice which happens between June 21 / 22 of every year.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:The human eye is sensitive to yellow-green light having a frequency of about 5.5*10^{14} ... What is the energy in joules of the photons associated with this light? ... As the wavelength and frequency of a wave are related, we can find the energy ... In order to find this value, we need Planck's Constant, h=6.626×10−34 J⋅s h ...

Calculate the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 60 Hz and wavelength of 2.0 m/s
mote1985 [20]

Answer:We have , a relation in frequency f and wavelength  λ of a wave having the velocity v as ,

           v=fλ ,

given f=60Hz , λ=20m ,

therefore velocity of wave , v=60×20=1200m/s

Answer/Explanation:

The weight of an object is defined as the force that is exerted due to the gravitational force.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

W = m g

Where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Also,  

We know that the value of g varies with respect to the location. At the equator, the value of g is less as compared to the poles.

The feature of an object that affects its weight are :

Mass of the object

Location of the object

How much force Earth exerts on the object

In order to decrease the friction an object experiences, you can either change
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Reduce its weight

Explanation:

For an object on a flat surface, the maximum force of friction experienced by the object is given by:

F = \mu W

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

As we can see from the formula, there are two ways of reducing the  friction:

- Decreasing \mu --> this coefficient depends on the material and on the roughness of the surface, so this can be changed by changing the properties of the surface

- Decreasing W, the weight --> this can be done by reducing the mass of the object
