Answer;

- June 21

At 45 degrees latitude, the angle of the noon sun is lowest and the length of daylight is shortest on June 21.

Explanation;

-On June 21 you will note that the Northern Hemisphere is pitched toward the Sun. This means that the Sun's vertical ray is striking the Earth at the Tropic of Cancer (23.5 degrees N).

-Days tend to get longer in the northern hemisphere from December 21 to June 21, and then grow shorter from June 21 to December 21. The June solstice is the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. The date varies between June 20 and June 22, depending on the year, and the local time zone.

Ike is at the beach watching the waves in the ocean. Ike notices that some of the waves are short. Other waves are very tall and come up high above the water. Two waves that are different heights because They have different amplitudes.

Answer: Option (D) is correct

Explanation:

The different heights of the waves are due to their different amplitudes. The Amplitude of a particular wave depends upon the amount of energy being carried by waves. It the waves carry more energy than their amplitude will be higher.

But if energy carried by a wave is less than the wave will have a low amplitude. The Amplitude shows the distance covered from the rest position to peak position.

Answer:

c. the volume of the part of the ship that lies below the water's surface.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, Archimedes' Principle tells us that that buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of fluid it displaces. The volume of water that a ship displaces is the volume it occupies below the surface.

Determine the electrical and gravitational forces that two protons in the nucleus of a helium atom exert on each other when sepa

jonny [76]

Answer:

Fe = 25.67 N

Fg = 2.0734 x 10^-35 N

Explanation:

r = 3 x 10^-15 m

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Mp = 1.6726231 x 10^-27 kg

Qp = 1.6021 x 10^-19 C

K = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

The formula for the electrical force between the two protons is given by

$F = K \frac{Q_{p}\times Q_{p}}{r^{2}}$

$F = \frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6021\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6021\times 10^{-19}}{3\times 10^{-15}\times 3\times 10^{-15}}$

Fe = 25.67 N

The formula for the gravitational force between the two protons is given by

$F = G \frac{M_{p}\times M_{p}}{r^{2}}$

$F = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.6726231\times 10^{-27}\times 1.6726231\times 10^{-27}}{3\times 10^{-15}\times 3\times 10^{-15}}$

Fg = 2.0734 x 10^-35 N

To a nighttime observer on Earth, how many degrees do the stars appear to move around Polaris in 3 hours?

STatiana [176]

<span>The correct answer is 45 degrees. 360 degrees is 24 hours, because it takes a whole day for the earth to turn in one whole circle. So, to find how many degrees the stars seem to move per hour, simply divide the total number of degrees by the total number of hours in a day: 360/24 = 15. Since the question is asking how much the stars appear to move in 3 hours, now multiply the number of degrees per hour times 3: 15 x 3 = 45. </span>
