Explanation:

The earth has a magnetic field. It is much like a bar magnet. Imagine a gigantic bar magnet inside the Earth. But there is no giant magnet inside it.

To have a pretty good idea what earth's magnetic field is shaped like we imagine a bar magnet inside the earth.

The magnetic field is made by the motion of molten iron in earth's outer core.  The swirling motion of molten iron changes all the time. Therefore, the magnetic fields will also get change. Then, the magnet poles also move.

The North pole and the south pole are two geographic poles of earth.  These poles are the places on the earth's surface that earth's imaginary spin axis passes through.

There are two magnetic poles of the earth: North magnetic pole and South magnetic pole.

Earth's magnetic field is tilted a little bit. If we imagine that earth's magnetic field is made by a giant bar magnet. Then, the bar magnet would make an with earth's spin axis.

The geographic poles and the magnetic poles are not in the same place.

If we are standing at one magnetic poles then the magnetic field lines would be straight up and down.

The Earth magnetic fields helps balance out the planet  by the core from the north pole to the south pole in order to keep earth gravity at stand even during revolving around the solar system

How much energy was released if rocket hydrogen fuel was burnt ?​
suter [353]
When ignited, the gas mixture converts to water vapor and releases energy, which sustains the reaction: 241.8 kJ of energy (LHV) for every mole of H2 burned.” A mole of hydrogen weighs 2 grams. So, this is a LHV (lower heating value) of 120.9 kJ/gram of hydrogen when heat of vaporization is subtracted.

A World War II bomber flies horizontally over level terrain, with a speed of 287 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude o
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: 7.38 km

Explanation: The attachment shows the illustration diagram for the question.

The range of the bomb's motion as obtained from the equations of motion,

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = 287 m/s, H = vertical height at which the bomb was thrown = 3.24 km = 3240 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 287 √(2×3240/9.8) = 7380 m = 7.38 km
