Earths Rotation
Earth's rotation is the rotation of Planet Earth around its own axis. Earth rotates eastward, in prograde motion. As viewed from the north pole star Polaris, Earth turns counterclockwise.

The earth rotates as the sun travels around it. If the sun was not was not on the other side, it would be night there, but if the sun was shooting to the side it would be day time.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

13.309 m/s²

Explanation:

Length from shoulder to hand, l = 30 cm = 0.3 m

initial velocity, u = 1 m/s

final velocity, v = 2.5 m/s

time, t = 3 s

Let the tangential acceleration is a.

by using first equation of motion

v = u + at

2.5 = 1 + 3 a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Let the centripetal acceleration is a'.

a' = v'²/l

a' = 2 x 2 / 0.3

a' = 13.3 m/s²

The tangential acceleration and the centripetal acceleration are both perpendicular to each other. So, the net acceleration is given by

$A=\sqrt{a^{2}+a'^{2}}$

$A=\sqrt{0.5^{2}+13.3^{2}}$

A = 13.309 m/s²

Two particles with oppositely signed charges are held a fixed distance apart. The charges are equal in magnitude and they exert

damaskus [11]

Answer:

the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.

Explanation:

The initial electric force between the two charges is:

$F = k \frac{q\cdot q}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the magnitude of each charge

r is their separation

Later, half of one charge is transferred to the other charge; this means that one charge will have a charge of

$q+\frac{q}{2}=\frac{3}{2}q$

while the other charge will be

$q-\frac{q}{2}=\frac{q}{2}$

So, the new force will be

$F' = k \frac{(\frac{q}{2})\cdot (\frac{3}{2}q)}{r^2}=\frac{3}{4} (k\frac{q\cdot q}{r^2})=\frac{3}{4}F$

So, the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.

The trade winds are tropical winds that blow toward the Equator. Choose the statement that best explains why the trade winds blo

AveGali [126]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. Trade winds blow towards the equator because the Equator receives the most heat energy.

The surface air that flows from these subtropical high-pressure belts toward the Equator is deflected toward the west in both hemispheres by the Coriolis effect. These winds blow predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
