The angle of the Sun above the horizon, which is the solar altitude, influences the intensity ofsolar radiation received at Earth’s surface. At the place on Earth where the Sun is directlyoverhead, the local solar altitude has its maximum value of 90 degrees and solar rays are mostconcentrated. Whenever the Sun is positioned lower in the sky, solar radiation spreads over alarger area of Earth’s horizontal surface and thus is less intense. Solar radiation reaches theplanet essentially as parallel beams of uniform intensity. The nearly spherical Earth presents acurved surface to incoming solar radiation so that the noon solar altitude always varies withlatitude. The intensity of solar radiation actually striking Earth’s atmosphere is greatest at thelatitude where the noon Sun is in the zenith and decreases with distance north and south of thatlatitude. Decreasing solar altitude lengthens the path of the Sun’s rays through the atmosphere.As the path lengthens, the greater interaction of solar radiation with clouds, gases and aerosols<span>reduces its intensity</span>
Answer:
an instrument for measuring an electromotive force by balancing it against the potential difference produced by passing a known current through a known variable resistance.
Explanation:
Terminal velocity is given by:

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration,
is the drag coefficient,
is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is
.

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

12m S=0m E, -12m N
15m 55d E of N = 15 sin 55, 15 cos 55 N
Sum= (15sin55)m E, (-12 + 15 cos 55)m N
Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the
sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:
l = 15 – 2x
w = 8 – 2x
It is 2x since we cut on two sides.
We know that volume is:
V = l w x
V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x
V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
Taking the 1st derivative:
dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2
Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:
120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0
Divide by 12:
x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0
(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2
x - 92/24 = ±2.17
x = 1.66, 6
We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w
negative, so:
x = 1.66 inches
So the largest volume is:
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3
V = 90.74 cubic inches
