Why do we have seasons on Earth

2 answers:

Seasons occur because Earth tilts 23.5 degrees on its axis. That tilt affects the intensity of the sunlight hitting the surface, and that in turn causes the seasons. When North America, Europe, and northern Asia are having summer, it's because they're tilted directly toward the sun and receiving the most sunlight.

Answer:

The answer is the Earth is tilted as the Earth makes its journey for the year around the Sun.

In general the earth is tilted at angle of 23.5 degrees from vertical axis. So that the Earth always pointing to one side as it revolves around the Sun. This causes varying amounts of Sun light around the Earth during the years gives us seasons.

So here we conclude that the axis of the Earth is most important thing, why the seasons occur.

Tilt:

Whenever the Earth lean towards the Sun, summer season occurs and lean away from the Sun winter season occurs. In between these two spring and Autumn occurs.

Answer:0.0704 kg

Explanation:

Given

initial Absolute pressure $(P_1)$ =210+101.325=311.325

$T_1=25^{\circ}\approx 298 K$

$V=0.025 m^3$

$T_2=50^{\circ}\approx 323 K$

as the volume remains constant therefore

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{311.325}{298}=\frac{P_2}{323}$

$P_2=337.44 KPa$

therefore Gauge pressure is 337.44-101.325=236.117 KPa

Initial mass $m_1=\frac{P_1V}{RT_1}=\frac{311.325\times 0.025}{0.0287\times 298}$

$m_1=0.91 kg$

Final mass $m_2=\frac{P_2V}{RT_2}=\frac{311.325\times 0.025}{0.0287\times 323}$

$m_2=0.839$

Therefore $m_1-m_2$ =0.91-0.839=0.0704 kg of air needs to be removed to get initial pressure back

When an apple falls towards the earth,the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is this true?If yes, why is the earth's motion not n

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

because the mass of the apple is very less compared to the mass of earth. Due to less mass the apple cannot produce noticable acceleration in the earth but the earth which has more mass produces noticable acceleration in the apple. thus we can see apple falling on towards the earth but we cannot see earth moving towards the apple.
