What is an earth revolution, what shape is it's path, and how long does it last?

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".

Answer:

τ=0.060 N.m

Explanation:

By kinematics:

\omega f = \omega o-\alpha*t

Solving for α:

\alpha=\frac{\omega o-\omega f}{t}

where ωo = 600*2*π/60;   ωf = 0;    t=10s

\alpha=6.283rad/s^2

The sum of torque is:

\tau=I*\alpha

\tau=M*R^2/2*\alpha

\tau=0.060 N.m

The US government wants to allocate billions of dollars in the next 10 years to help assure our future energy security. The fund
Tom [10]

This question is a very good one indeed! I am very happy you asked it. I would first like to say that, although energy is important, our planet is more so. That is why I feel like we should always try to explore ideas that are both useful to the human race but also useful in protecting our environment because what is the use in having energy if we will not be able to use it. That is why I feel that we should try at types of energy like solar and wind. The problem is finding ways that are less expensive and more efficient. For example, creating a wind energy system that creates a sizeable about of energy and also is not too expensive and hard to make like the wind turbines of nowadays. Also what comes into question is the effect of these ideas and I feel that although some of these may have harmful effects, they must be used. One thing though is that I do not agree in expanding on our oil and gas exploration because it has so many bad effects to our environment that it is hardly worth it. If we can find alternatives in these other sources, like many states in the USA are trying to do, then we will be able to move much faster in technology and also help protect our lovely planet.

According to current scientific thinking how did the solar system that contains earth form
KiRa [710]
Scientists think the solar system formed around 4.6 billion years ago from a cloud of dust and gas known as a solar nebula. Gravity collapsed the material on itself as it began to spin. This formed the sun in the middle. The planets formed when rock joined together in clumps and became bigger and bigger. And thus, our solar system was formed. Hope this helped
