True

Earth’s axis slowly but continuously points in different directions in a phenomenon called <u>axial precession</u>.

Explanation:

The tilt of the earth is not constant at 23.5 degrees.  Rather the earth's axis precesses in a cycle of approximately 25,772 years. This slow precession can have an apparent effect on climate on earth, especially in conjunction with <em>Milankovitch cycles</em> like aphelion and perihelion. Due to the axial precession, the poles can be facing to or away from the sun during aphelion or perihelion. This consequently can affect the cover ice sheet and glacier in the poles due to the time of exposure to sun rays.

Moustapha jones drives east at 100km/hr for 3 hours then back west at 80km/hr for 1.5 hours. which pair of answers gives his ave
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

The total distance cover in east direction is=100*3=300 km

The total distance cover in the west direction=80*1.5=120 km

The total distance covered is =300+120=420 km

And Total displacement of the car is =300-120=180 km

As we know that the average speed is given as

Avg Speed =Total Distance / Total time

=420/4.5=93.33 km/hr

As we know that the average velocity is given as

Avg Speed =Total Displacement/ Total time

=180/4.5=40 km/hr

Therefore, The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

Avery is experimenting with a simple circuit. She measures the current in the circuit three different time
sammy [17]

The current in each experiment increases with increase in the voltage. Similarly, the association between resistance and the current in a circuit shows that increase in the resistance shows a reduction in the current, vice versa.

Ohm's Law states that the voltage across an electric conductor is directly proportional to the current(I) passing through it provided the resistant is constant.

So;

V ∝ I

V = IR  

where

  • R = constant

The objective of this question want us to determine: How did the current change for each test provided that Avery uses a 1.5-volt battery, then she uses a 3-volt battery and lastly she uses a 9-volt battery, given that the resistance is constant through out the whole process.

In the first experiment;

  • 1.5 = IR

In the second experiment;

  • 3 = IR

In the third experiment;

  • 9 = IR

Therefore, we can conclude that the current in each experiment increases with increase in the voltage. Similarly, the association between resistance and the current in a circuit shows that increase in the resistance shows a reduction in the current, vice versa.
