An Earth revolution is a trip around the sun in a closed path (relative to the sun).

The path is very nearly an ellipse with the sun at one focus, and a little less nearly a circle with the sun at the center.

One complete revolution takes roughly 365.24 days, and at that point, the Earth immediately begins another one.

We have a special word that we use to refer to that special period of time. In English, it's called a "year".

A scientist testing to see how a cat “always” lands on their feet drops a cat upside down out of a third story window at a heigh

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Cat has 2.02 seconds to right itself.

Explanation:

Initial height of cat from ground = 20 meter.

We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

In this the velocity of cat in vertical direction = 0 m/s, acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 $m/s^2$ , we need to calculate time when s = 20 meter.

Substituting

$20=0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ t = 2.02 seconds$

So, cat has 2.02 seconds to right itself.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The average speed of the elevator going down in the abandoned mine is 17.722mph.

Explanation:

If the elevator takes 90 seconds to descend a height of 713m, the average speed of the elevator is:

$v_{av}=x_T/t_T=713m/90s=7.922m/s$

And if 1m/s is 2.23694mph, the average speed is:

$v_{av}=7.922m/s=17.722mph$ .
