Answer: Because The spectra provided evidence to explain why the sun's atmosphere is so much hotter than its surface. ... Clear evidence now suggests that the heating mechanism depends on regular, but intermittent explosive bursts of heat, rather than on continuous gradual heating.
Explanation:
Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
= (200 miles) / (5.5 hours)
= (200/5.5) mile/hour
= 36.4 miles per hour (rounded)
The correct answer is:
<span>A. orbiting closer to the earths surface.
In fact, the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the satellite is
</span>
<span>where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth mass
m is the satellite mass
r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's surface
We can see that, if the satellite orbits closer to the Earth's surface, its distance r from the centre of the planet decreases. But when r decreases, F (the gravitational force) increases, so A is the correct answer.</span>
C Weight is the gravitational pull on an object
The sun is a huge ball of gas held together by gravity.
It does not burn the way wood does, due to oxygen, but it gets energy by a process called nuclear fusion, where Hydrogen is converted to Helium.
The sun will cease to "burn" when it runs out of Hydrogen, but that has a long way to go.
