The position of a place north or south of the equator is described
in terms of its latitude. Since we're talking about the surface of
a sphere, latitude is an angle, and its value is given in angle
measure.
Any unit of angle is fine ... degrees, radians, grads, etc., and if
you're given an angle in one unit, you can always easily change
it to a unit that you like better ... but 'degrees' has been the unit
used most often for latitude, and longitude too, practically since
the whole system was invented a few hundred years ago.
For parts of an angle smaller than a whole degree, 1/60 of a
degree (minutes) and 1/3600 of a degree (seconds) were used
traditionally for the first couple hundred years. But that ponderous,
inconvenient system is rapidly giving way now to plain old decimal
degrees, probably because those are easier for the computer to handle.
Volcanic soil has a lot of minerals that plants take in as nutrients.
The answer is D. In caste systems you are born into a certain level of society and cannot change that.
Answer: 5am on Sunday, May 3rd.
Explanation:
Plane left at 12pm and takes 17 hours.
Add 12 and 17:
= 12 + 17
= 29
There are 24 hours in a day. The number of hours into the next day is therefore:
= 29 - 24
= 5 hours
If the plan arrives 5 hours into the next day, that would mean that it arrived at 5am. Date of the next day is May 3rd, a Sunday.
