Answer: The correct answer is "decreases".

Explanation:

Intensity is defined as the energy per unit volume.

The Sun rays fall almost vertically in the equator. The intensity of Sun rays is maximum at the equator. As the latitude increases the angle of the inclination will get change.

The Sun rays will spread over a large area. The intensity will get reduced on the latitude.

Therefore, as the latitude increases the intensity of solar energy decreases.

irinina [24]

The speed of the second satellite is less than the speed of the first satellite.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The speed of any moving object is the ratio of the distance covered and the time taken to cover that distance.

Given is a satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet. A second satellite is placed in a different circular orbit that is farther away from the same planet.

When the distance from the center of the orbit increases, the time to complete the orbit will be greater.

Thus, the speed of the second satellite is less than the speed of the first satellite.

Learn more about speed.

if it takes 3.5 hours for the hogwarts express moving at a speed of 120 mi/hr to make it from platform 9 and 3/4 to hogwarts how
Mila [183]
Use the formula distance = rate * time. substitute in the values you know, which gives you distance = 120mph * 3.5hours. multiply 120 and 3.5 to get distance = 420 miles.

At a given instant the bottom A of the ladder has an acceleration aA = 4 f t/s2 and velocity vA = 6 f t/s, both acting to the le
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Acceleration=24.9ft^2/s^2

Angular acceleration=1.47rads/s

Explanation:

Note before the ladder is inclined at 30° to the horizontal with a length of 16ft

Hence angular velocity = 6/8=0.75rad/s

acceleration Ab=Aa +(Ab/a)+(Ab/a)t

4+0.75^2*16+a*16

0=0.75^2*16cos30°-a*16sin30°---1

Ab=0+0.75^2sin30°+a*16cos30°----2

Solving equation 1

(0.75^2*16cos30/16sin30)=angular acceleration=a=1.47rad/s

Also from equation 2

Ab=0.75^2*16sin30+1.47*16cos30=24.9ft^2/s^2

Which elements do hydrogen fuel cells combine to produce electricty
NARA [144]
A fuel cell combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity, heat, and water. Fuel cells are often compared to batteries. Both convert the energy produced by a chemical reaction into usable electric power.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]
  • Unlike charges attract .
  • like charges repel .

There are two types of charges

Namely :

  • positive
  • negative

On loosing electrons , a neutral body acquires positive charge .

On gaining electrons , a neutral body acquires negative charge .

The amount of charge present in a body , either positive or negative , is expressed in terms of an integral number of charge of an electron , which is considered the elementary entity of an electric charge .
