What is physical meaning of Curl of Vector function?​

Geography

Answer:

In vector calculus, the curl is a vector operator that describes the infinitesimal rotation of a vector field in three-dimensional Euclidean space. At every point in the field, the curl of that point is represented by a vector. The attributes of this vector (length and direction) characterize the rotation at that point. The direction of the curl is the axis of rotation, as determined by the right-hand rule, and the magnitude of the curl is the magnitude of rotation. If the vector field represents the flow velocity of a moving fluid, then the curl is the circulation density of the fluid. A vector field whose curl is zero is called irrotational. The curl is a form of differentiation for vector fields. The corresponding form of the fundamental theorem of calculus is Stokes' theorem, which relates the surface integral of the curl of a vector field to the line integral of the vector field around the boundary curve.

The alternative terminology rotation or rotational and alternative notations rot F and ∇ × F are often used (the former especially in many European countries, the latter, using the del (or nabla) operator and the cross product, is more used in other countries) for curl F.

Unlike the gradient and divergence, curl does not generalize as simply to other dimensions; some generalizations are possible, but only in three dimensions is the geometrically defined curl of a vector field again a vector field. This is a phenomenon similar to the 3-dimensional cross product, and the connection is reflected in the notation ∇ × for the curl.

1.What is the latitude of the direct(vertical) rays of the sun?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The sun rays reach the earth's surface at an angle of 90 degrees at the equator which is direct and is short as compared to the poles it's long and about 66.5 degrees to the south and north. In the tropics its falls as 23.5 degrees in the northern and southern hemisphere.  
  • The sun rays that form a tangent to the northern hemisphere are at 0, 23.5, 66.5 degrees i.e tropics, temperate and poles. And same is for the southern hemisphere.
  • On June 21 the southern hemisphere has winter seasons as the amount of insolation that reaches the southern side is less due to the tilt of the sun.

Why do temperature get higher durin the day
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

well there's so many factors influencing temperatures like we have clouds in a cloudless place the temperature will be low as the clouds will be absorbing the rays from the sun while in a place where we have no clouds the temperatures will be really high during the day and called in the light then we also have nearness to large water bodies places near large water bodies experience high temperatures while those that are far experience low temperatures we also have altitude places with high altitudes experience low temperatures while places with low altitudes experience high temperatures

Where, I'm unsure, but when, I think I know. There is a theory that the first asteroid to hit Earth was actually a comet. It wiped out the dinosaurs.
