How does the Earth's Tilt affect the Earth

Physics

The seasons are caused as the Earth, tilted on its axis, travels in a loop around the Sun each year. Summer happens in the hemisphere tilted towards the Sun, and winter happens in the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun. As the Earth travels around the Sun, the hemisphere that is tilted towards or away from the Sun changes.

A 25 kg bear slides, from rest, 12 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.6 m/s just before hitting the ground.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

(A) -2940 J

(B) 392 J

(C) 212.33 N

Explanation:

mass of bear (m) = 25 kg

height of the pole (h) = 12 m

speed (v) = 5.6 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s

(A) change in gravitational potential energy (ΔU) = mg(height at the bottom- height at the top)

height at the bottom = 0

         = 25 x 9.8 x (0-12) = -2940 J

(B) kinetic energy of the Bear (KE) = 0.5mv^{2}

           = 0.5 x 25 x 5.6^{2}  = 392 J

(C) average frictional force = \frac{change in thermal energy}{height} = \frac{-(ΔKE+ΔU)}{h}

  • change in KE (ΔKE) = initial KE - final KE
  • ΔKE = 0.5mv^{2} - 0.5mvf^{2}            
  • when the Bear reaches the bottom of the pole, the final velocity (Vf) is 0, therefore the change in kinetic energy becomes  ΔKE = 0.5x25x5.6^{2} - 0 = 392 J

 \frac{-(ΔKE+ΔU)}{h}[/tex] = \frac{-(392 + (-2940))}{12}

=  \frac{(-392 + 2940)}{12} = 212.33 N

A vibrating object produces periodic waves with a wavelength of 53 cm and a frequency of 15 Hz. How fast do these waves move awa
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

v = 7.95 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of a wave, \lambda=53\ cm=0.53\ m

Frequency of a wave, f = 15 Hz

We need to find the speed of the wave. The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\v=15\ Hz\times 0.53\ m\\\\v=7.95\ m/s

So, the wave move with a speed of 7.95 m/s.

Which properties do metalloids share with metals?
Inga [223]
Metals are not brittle so it can’t be the first one or the third one, both metalloids and metals are shiny so it can’t be the second one. Therefore, it would be the last one because both metalloids and metals are shiny and both are solids at room temperature because it is not a high enough melting point.

ANSWER: Both are shiny and are solid at room temperature.

1. The successful launch of communication satellites

2.More people will be interested in studying science

But science would probably be focused on space exploration and there will probably be less scientists in other fields such as chemistry.
