How would the seasons change if the earth were tilted at 90 degrees instead of 23.5?

1 answer:

6 0

<span>The 23.5 degree tilt is responsible for the seasons. If the earth had no tilt there would not be seasons. If the earth was tilted by 90 degrees the seasonal changes would be at the most extreme. The Earth's pole would point directly at the sun at a point on the track around the sun. As the Earth revolves around the Sun the pole would alternate twice each year between pointing directly at the sun and being perpendicular to the sun.

I hope this helps you!

Answer:

Explanation:

1.) The reaction is at dynamic equilibrium.

A: Nitrogen and hydrogen combine at the same rate that ammonia breaks down.

2.) Which statement about the reaction is necessarily correct?

A: Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

3.) Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.

A: The reaction is reversible.

4.) What is the fastest motion that can be measured in any frame of reference?

A: 300,000 km/s

5.) Two people are on a train that is moving at 10 m/s north. They are walking 1 m/s south relative to the train. Relative to the ground, their motion is 9 m/s north.

Why are we able to use these motions to describe the motion relative to the ground?

A: The people are moving much slower than the speed of light so the ground acts as a frame of reference.

You’re squeezing a springy rubber ball in your hand. If you push inward on it with a force of 1 N, it dents inward 2 mm. How far

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

10mm

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law which states that "the extension of an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force provided the elastic limit is not exceeded. Direct proportionality there means, increase/decrease in the force leads to increase/decrease in extension.

Mathematically, F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension

from the formula k = F/e

k = F1/e1 = F2/e2

Given force of 1N indents the spring inwards by 2mm, this means force of 1N generates extension of 2mm

Let F1 = 1N e1 = 2mm

The extension that will be produced If force of 5N is applied to the string is what we are looking for. Therefore F2 = 5N; e2= ?

Substituting this values in the formula above we have

1/2=5/e2

Cross multiplying;

e2 = 10mm

This shows that we must have dent it by 10mm before it pushes outwards by a 5N force

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

Why is it easier to change meters to centimeters than it is changing yards to feet?

storchak [24]

Because metric units use the deca system, 1km = 1000m = 100 000cm etc...
