<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Latitude determines the duration of daylight hours.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>The amount of daylight hours depends on the latitude and how Earth orbits the sun. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The tilting of the earth  as it orbits the sun leads to a variation of solar energy that changes with latitude which causes a seasonal variation in the intensity of sunlight reaching the surface and the number of hours of daylight.</u></em>
  • Daylight hours are shortest in each hemisphere's winter. Between summer and winter solstice, the number of daylight hours decreases, and the rate of decrease is larger the higher the latitude.

Two capacitors have the same size of plates and the same distance 4 mm between the plates The potentials of the two plates in ca
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

    E = -4000 N / C

Explanation:

The potential and electric field are related

         V = - E s

          E = - V / s

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          s = 4 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 0.004 m

we calculate

          E = - 16 /0.004

          E = -4000 N / C

Secondary evidence is the basis for drawing scientific conclusions is this true ir false
Leto [7]
The statement: "secondary evidence is the basis for drawing scientific conclusions" is definitely false. Secondary evidence is the body of information obtained to prove the existence of unknown or missing primary evidence. In drawing scientific conclusions, primary evidence is needed.

Imagine an alternate universe where the value of the Planck constant is . In that universe, which of the following objects would
HACTEHA [7]

Question: The planck constant was not given. In this calculation, planck constant of 6.62607*10^-9 Js  is used for the calculation.

Answer:

(a) A virus -------------Classical

(b) A buckyball -----Classical

(c) A mosquito ------ Quantum

(d) A turtle  ------------Quantum

Explanation:

 Calculating the wavelength using the formula;

λ= h/(mv)

where

λ= Wavelength

h = Planck Constant = 6.62607*10^-9 Js

m = mass in kg

v = velocity in m/s

Virus size = 280. nm = 2.80*10⁻⁷ m

a)

A Virus:

m = 9.4 x 10-17 g 9.4*10⁻²⁰ kg

v = 0.50 µm/s = 5 *10⁻⁷ m/s

h = 6.62607*10^-9 Js

Virus size = 280 nm = 2.80*10⁻⁷ m

Substituting into the formula; we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (9.4*10⁻²⁰* 5 *10⁻⁷)

  = 6.62607*10^-9/4.7*10^-26

  = 1.4*10^17 m

Classical : Wavelength is bigger than it's size

(b)

A buckyball

m = 1.2 x 10-21 g = 1.2 *10⁻²⁴ kg

V = 37 m/s

Size = 0.7 nm = 7*10⁻¹⁰ m

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ ( 1.2 *10⁻²⁴* 37)

  =  6.62607*10^-9/4.44*10^-23

  = 1.49 *10^14 m

Classical : Wavelength is bigger than it's size

(c)

A mosquito

Mass = 1.0 mg = 1*10⁻⁶ kg

v = 1.1 m/s

Size =  6.3 mm = 6.3*10⁻³ m

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (  1*10⁻⁶* 1.1)

  =  6.62607*10^-9/1.1*10^-6

  = 6.02*10^-3 m

Quantum Approach: The wavelength and the size are comparable

(d)

A turtle

Mass = 710. g = 0.71 kg

Size =  22. cm = 0.22 m

V =  2.8 cm/s. = 0.028 m/s

Substituting into the formula, we have

λ= h/(mv)

λ= 6.62607*10^-9/ (  0.71* 0.028)

  = 6.62607*10^-9/0.01988

   = 3.33*10^-7 m

Quantum Approach: The wavelength and the size are comparable
