Why the Earth is dependent on the Sun?

Physics

The Earth revolves (orbits) around the Sun in one year. The Earth's rotation axis is tilted relative to the plane of its orbit around the Sun. This tilt of the Earth is responsible for the seasons as the Earth orbits the Sun. The Sun provides energy that sustains all life on Earth.

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at a constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcyc
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

(a) 3.807 s

(b) 145.581 m

Explanation:

Let Δt = t2 - t1 be the time it takes from the moment when the motorcycle starts to accelerate until it catches up with the car. We know that before the acceleration, both vehicles are travelling at a constant speed. So they would maintain a distance of 58 m prior to the acceleration.

The distance traveled by car after Δt (seconds) at v_c = 23m/s speed is

s_c = \Delta t v_c = 23\Delta t

The distance traveled by the motorcycle after Δt (seconds) at m_m = 23 m/s speed and acceleration of a = 8 m/s2 is

s_m = \Delta t v_m + a\Delta t^2/2

s_m = 23\Delta t + 8\Delta t^2/2 = 23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2

We know that the motorcycle catches up to the car after Δt, so it must have covered the distance that the car travels, plus their initial distance:

s_m = s_c + 58

23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2 = 23\Delta t + 58

4 \Delta t^2 = 58

\Delta t^2 = 14.5

\Delta t = \sqrt{14.5} = 3.807s

(b)

s_m = 23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2

s_m = 23*3.807 + 58 = 145.581 m

A ray of light bends upon entering a new medium. What is this phenomenon called?
Ainat [17]
Refraction is a phenomenon which results when a ray of light enters from one medium to another medium. When a ray of light enters from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal. The laws of refraction are: The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal all lie in the same plane.

How can a volcano develop in the middle of a tectonic plate?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Volcanoes that form away from plate boundaries are created by hotspots. A hotspot is an area in the mantle that is believed to be somewhat hotter than the surrounding material. The rising magma from the hotspot can push its way through the crust and burst out at the surface, forming a volcano.

How does changes in distance affect the gravitational pull between two objects? Describe and give one example.
maxonik [38]
The formula is

F_grav = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

G m1 and m2 are going to stay the same once chosen no matter what the distance is. The only thing that will change is the distance.

As the distance increases, the Gravitational Force will decrease. It will decrease by quite a bit.

As the distance decreases, the gravitational force will Increase.

The relationship is inverse. The moon travelling around the earth is one example. The earth travelling around the sun is another.
