Place the two thermometers outdoors in different locations. Place one in direct sunlight and the other in shade. Make sure that

the thermometers are in a secure location so they will not fall or blow away. Do you think that there will be a difference in temperature between these two locations over a period of one week? Write down your prediction.

Yes

Explanation:

There would be a difference in temperature between the two places over the time interval.

What is temperature?

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is measured  using a thermometer as described in the set up.

Temperature changes is a result of heat transfer.

The sun is the ultimate source of energy for the earth.

It transfers heat to the earth by radiation.

Under a shade, the tree leaves or shed will cut off the radiation preventing it from reaching the surface. This place will be cool and at a lower temperature than expected.

The thermometer furnished with direct sunlight will have a higher temperature. As the radiation from sun hits the surface, it causes it to warm up and increase in temperature. This will cause the thermometer's temperature to also rise.

Why isn't pluto considered a planet anymore?
aivan3 [116]

The answer is. It did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet.

1. It is in orbit around the Sun

2. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium

3. It has 'cleared the neighborhood' around its orbit

Pluto has not 'cleared its neighborhood'

A 0.20 kg mass is oscillating at a small angle from a light string with a period of 0.78 s.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

L = 15 cm

Explanation:

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = g(T/2π)²

L = 9.8(0.78/2π)²

L = 0.151027... m

L = 15 cm

Which of the following is a process that occurs at divergent boundaries?
PIT_PIT [208]
The appropriate answer is 4. The formation of Mid-Ocean ridges. There are two types of divergent margins: continental separation and oceanic floor spreading. Where the sea floor separates magma upwells and new oceanic crust is formed. Mid ocean ridges are home to hydrothermal vents. These support a unique ecosystem of marine organisms. The Mid- Atlantic Ridge where the African and Eurasian plates separate from the North and South American plates.
