Why does earth’s rotation axis lean toward the sun for only one-half of its orbit?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
8 0

The earth is inclined to the plane of its orbit by 23.5 degrees. Therefore for half the time in its earth on its orbit, the north pole will be inclined towards the sun. During this period, the pole receives six months of continuous sunshine. In the other half of the revolution around the sun, the north pole is tilted away from the sun hence receives darkness for 6 months.

Plete the following problems significant figures: 6 × 0.30<br>​
jeka57 [31]
6= Only the digits 1 and 6 are the actual measured values. Therefore we have only 2 significant figures.

0.3= Zeros used as placeholders are not significant. Zeros that come before non-zero integers are never significant. Example 5: The zeros in 098, 0.3, and 0.000000000389 are not significant because they are all in front of non-zero integers. c. If the zeros come after non-zero integers and are followed by a decimal point, the zeros are significant.

what is a photoelectric?explain the terms ground state and excited state with the help of labelled diagram
brilliants [131]

Answer: Photoelectric is characterized by or involving the emission of electrons from a surface by the action of light.

Photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when a radiation of frequency higher than the threshold frequency falls on the surface of an element. The substance which undergoes photoelectric effect is called as photoelectric.

Ground state is the state representing the lowest energy  state.

Excited state is the state which represents a high energy state.

An electron in ground state absorbs energy to move to the excited state.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!
Akimi4 [234]

Explanation:

The magnet uses electromagnetic induction meaning it can be readily magnetized and demagnetized (using electricity) when required. When electricity is switched on, it becomes magnetized and lifts an object and when electricity is switched off, it loses magnetism and releases the object.

The magnetic is able to lift heavy objects because it has powerful conductor material (ferromagnetic iron) and the number of electromagnetic coils is many to induce a powerful magnetic force. The electric current, inducing the magnetism, is also powerful.

Function of leaf in points​
klasskru [66]

Explanation:

The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy.

  • Photosynthesis.
  • Transpiration.
  • Guttation.
  • Storage.
  • Defense.

I will be describing what each of these do to the plant.

  • <u>Photosynthesis: </u>Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
  • <u>Transpiration</u>: Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. The remaining 97–99.5% is lost by transpiration and guttation.
  • <u>Guttation</u>: Guttation is the exudation of drops of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plants, such as grasses, and a number of fungi. Guttation is not to be confused with dew, which condenses from the atmosphere onto the plant surface. Guttation generally happens during the night time.
  • <u>Storage</u>: A storage organ is a part of a plant specifically modified for storage of energy (generally in the form of carbohydrates) or water. Storage organs often grow underground, where they are better protected from attack by herbivores.
  • <u>Defense</u>: The first line of defense in plants is an intact and impenetrable barrier composed of bark and a waxy cuticle. Both protect plants against herbivores. Other adaptations against herbivores include hard shells, thorns (modified branches), and spines (modified leaves).

<u>Hope this helps!</u>
