<h3><u>Effects of the earths orbit around the sun:</u></h3>

The earth moves around the sun in an elliptical orbit, Johannes Kepler, a "German mathematician, and astronomer" described this elliptical orbit first. The orbit is close to being a circle but not a circle. Earth orbiting the sun mainly effects on seasons on earth.

Earth's four seasons are determined when Earth is tilted 23.4 degrees on the vertical axis, which is called as “axial tilt”. When a "southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun", it experiences summer and northern hemisphere experiences winter, exactly opposite happens when northern hemisphere tilts towards Sun and this climate change goes on in all countries.

A woman is standing in the ocean, and she notices that after a wave crest passes, five more crests pass in a time of 54.0 s. The
timama [110]

Answer:

a) f=0.1 Hz ; b) T=10s

c)λ= 36m

d)v=3.6m/s

e)amplitude, cannot be determined

Explanation:

Complete question is:

Determine, if possible, the wave's (a) frequency, (b) period, (c) wavelength, (d) speed, and (e) amplitude.

Given:

number of wave crests 'n'= 5

pass in a time't' 54.0s

distance between two successive crests 'd'= 36m

a) Frequency of the waves 'f' can be determined by dividing number of wave crests with time, so we have

f=n/t

f= 5/ 54 => 0.1Hz

b)The time period of wave 'T' is the reciprocal of the frequency

therefore,

T=1/f

T=1/0.1

T=10 sec.

c)wavelength'λ' is the distance between two successive crests i.e 36m

Therefore, λ= 36m

d) speed of the wave 'v' can be determined by the product of frequency and wavelength

v= fλ => 0.1 x 36

v=3.6m/s

e) For amplitude, no data is given in this question. So, it cannot be determined.

Which of the following devices is associated with the reception of radio signals?
ki77a [65]
What are the "following" devices ? ?
I think they're a list of choices that you have but aren't sharing.

A few devices associated with the reception of various types of
radio signals include the resonant tank, the local oscillator, the
mixer, the detector, the coherer, the discriminator, the parabolic
reflector, the lecher wires, the audio transducer, the demultiplexer,
and ... my personal guess ... the 'antenna' or 'aerial'.

An object weighs 60.0 kg on the surface of the earth. How much does it weigh 4R from the surface? (5R from the center)
Alecsey [184]
"60 kg" is not a weight.  It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.

The weight of the object is   

                                 (mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .

On the surface of the Earth,

                   Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

                                =      588 Newtons.

Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to  5R  from the center, the gravity out there is

                    (1R/5R)²  =  (1/5)²  =  1/25  =  0.04 of its value on the surface.

The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.

                 (0.04) x (588 Newtons)  =  23.52 Newtons.

Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.
___________________________________________

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink. 
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.
