<span>If it stopped spinning completely, you would get 1/2 year daylight and 1/2 year nightime!! During daytime for 6 months, the surface temperature would depend on your latitude, being far hotter that it is now at the equator than at the poles where the light rays are more slanted and heating efficiency is lower. This long-term temperature gradient would alter the atmospheric wind circulation pattern so that the air would move from the equator to the poles rather than in wind systems parallel to the equator like they are now!</span>

A student throws a baseball horizontally at 25 meters per second from a cliff 45 meters above the level ground. Approximately ho
Delicious77 [7]
First, calculate how long the ball is in midair. This will depend only on the vertical displacement; once the ball hits the ground, projectile motion is over. Since the ball is thrown horizontally, it originally has no vertical speed. 
t = time vi = initial vertical speed = 0m/s g = gravity = -9.8m/s^2 y = vertical displacement = -45m 
y = .5gt^2 [Basically, in this equation we see how long it takes the ball to fall 45m] -45m = .5 (-9.8m/s^2) * t^2 t = 3.03 s 
Now we know that the ball is midair for 3.03s. Since horizontal speed is constant we can simply use: 
x = horizontal displacement v = horizontal speed = 25m/s t = time = 3.03s 
x = v*t x = 25m/s * 3.03s = 75.76 m Thus, the ball goes about 75 or 76 m from the base of the cliff.

In which of the following situations or places would you want to reduce the
sashaice [31]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer would be in the axle of the wheels while you ride your bicycle.</em>

Options A, B, and C requires that the forces of friction is increased in order to have more control.

However, option D requires that there is a minimal frictional force in the axle of the wheels of a bicycle while riding so that a little effort would be required to keep the bicycle moving.

<u>The lesser the friction, the lower the effort that would be needed to keep the bicycle moving and vice versa.</u>

a block of wood has a length of 4 cm a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm what is the volume of the wood
geniusboy [140]

Volume= Length X width X height.

Plug in the values for each and solve for the volume.

V= (L)(W)(H)

V=(4cm)(5cm)(10cm).
