Two students designed an experiment to study the effect of solar radiations on four cities of Earth. They used a globe to repres

ent Earth and a light bulb to represent the sun. The four cities were labeled A, B, C, and D on the globe at the latitudes shown in the chart below. City Latitude A 33° 53' S B 64° 03' N C 39° 56' N D 2° 09' S The students moved the globe slowly around the light bulb in an elliptical orbit. Based on the experiment, the students are most likely to conclude that the least variation in seasons will be experienced at City A City B City C City D

Great experiment !  Everybody should try it if they can get the equipment. 
It demonstrates a lot of things that are very hard to explain in words. 

I hope the students remembered to tilt the axis of the globe.  If they didn't,
and instead kept it straight up and down, then each city had pretty much
the same amount of bulb-light all the way around, and there were no seasons.

If the axis of the globe was tilted, then City-D had the least variation in
seasons.  City-D is only 2° from the equator, so the sun is more direct
there all year around than it is at any of the others.

A plane is flying 2400 miles from a to
geniusboy [140]
From a to b speed is 600+40 = 640
from b to a speed is 600-40 = 560

let t be the number of hours of flight. This would mean it would have traveled a distance of 640 miles and the distance yet to travel is 2400-640t
Time left will be (2400-640t)/640. But if they were to return to a it would fly 640t miles at 560mph which will take (640t/560) hrs

(2400-640t) / 640 = 640t / 560
560(2400 - 640t) = 640t x 640
t = 1.75hrs

What do a prism, a magnifying glass, a microscope, and eyeglasses ALL have in common? A) They are opaque. B) They refract light.
Elena L [17]
By definition, when the speed of the light changes when it passes from a material to another, this is called "Refraction of light". This happens when there is a difference in the index of refraction between both mediums o materials. Therefore, that speed depends of <span>the medium through  it passes. 
</span> 
 T<span>he index of refraction</span> is expressed as below: 
 n=c/v
 
 "n"  is <span>the index of refraction.
</span> "c" is <span>is the speed of light.
</span> "<span>v" is the phase velocity of light in the medium.
</span> 
 A prism, a magnifying glass, a microscope, and eyeglasses refract light. Therefore, the correct option is: B) They refract light.
