What is true of all places on earth during the equinoxes

Physics
2 answers:
tia_tia [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:There is approximately equal length of night and day in all places of the earth during equinoxes.

Explanation: At some point in the earth's revolution around the sun, it's observed that the earth's axis doesn't tilt towards nor away from the sun.

So this results to nearly equal amount of darkness and daylight across the earth. This happens just twice in a year around March 20-21 and September 22-23.

Answer:

The length and duration of the day time and the length and duration of the night time are the same all over the planet.

Explanation:

Equinox is known as the period of time when the plane of Earth's equator passes through the center of the Sun. This occurs twice each year.

it is the moment at which the center of the visible Sun is directly above the equator.

At Equinox, the daytime and nighttime are of approximately equal duration all over the planet. Although, They are not totally and exactly equal.

Combine these three velocity vectors into a resultant: 3.0 m/s north, 4.0 m/s east 1.0 m/s west. Identify the resultant vector
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s

Explanation:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s west based on triangle law of vector addition, when two sides of a triangle is represented by two vectors, the resultant vector is the third side of the triangle.

Briefly answer the following questions. a) A clock is mounted on the wall. As you look at it, what is the direction of the angul
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The direction of angular velocity vector of second hand will be along the line going into the plane of dial perpendicular to it.

b )  If the angular acceleration of a rigid body is zero, the angular velocity will remain constant.

c )  If another planet the same size as Earth were put into orbit around the Sun along with Earth  the moment of inertia of the system will increase because the mass of the system increases. Moment of inertia depends upon mass and its distribution around the axis.

d ) Increasing the number of blades on a propeller increases the moment of inertia , because both mass and mass distribution around axis of rotation increases.

e ) It is not possible  that  a body has the same moment of inertia for all possible axes because a body can not remain symmetrical about all axes possible. Sphere has same moment of inertia about all axes passing through its centre.

f ) To maximize the moment of inertia of a flywheel while minimizing its weight, the  shape and distribution of mass should be such that maximum mass of the body may be situated at far end of the body from axis of rotation . So flywheel must have thick outer boundaries and this should be

attached with axis with the help of thin rods .

g ) When the body is rotating at the same place , its translational kinetic   energy is zero but its rotational energy can be increased

at the same place.
