Answer:

C. the tilt of Earth’s axis as it orbits around the Sun

Explanation:

The hemisphere which is pointed towards the Sun, it is summer in that hemisphere.

The hemisphere which is pointed away from the Sun, it is winter in that hemisphere.

The tilt of the Earth at 23.4° is responsible for the length of a day in the hemisphere.

In the corresponding hemisphere the day is longer in the summer season and the day is longer in the winter season.

Hence, the seasons are caused due to the fact that tilt of Earth’s axis as it orbits around the Sun.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

$\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

$\dot{m}$ = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = $25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}$

Concentration is given by

$C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is $1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$ .
