Why do the stars appear to rotate around Polaris?

Physics

Oduvanchick [21]2 years ago
6 0
Because Polaris known as the North Star does not rotate due to it's exact location so everything else rotates around it.

<span>The star Polaris is almost in line with the axis of earth. So when earth rotates it does not appear to rotate in circles.</span>

Convection currents produce the heat in the Earth’s interior.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Convection currents do not produce heat. In fact, convection current are a method of transfer of heat, not of production. Convection occurs when there is a fluid which is heated from bottom, from an external source of heat (such as a pot of boiling water over a flame): the bottom part of the fluid becomes warmer, and so less dense than the colder part, therefore it starts moving up, and it is replaced by the colder parts of the fluid, which go down. Later, these colder parts become warmer, so they start going up, being replaced by new colder parts, etc... in a cycle. This is known as convection current, but it requires an external source of heat, it does not produce heat by itself.

What is the S.I. unit of drift velocity and electron mobility?
DanielleElmas [232]
Drift velocity is equal to displacement of the moving object per unit time. The SI unit for displacement is meters while that of time is second. Hence the derived SI unit of velocity is meter per second. This also applies to electron mobility which relates to the displacement per unit time of a moving electron

1. What are the units of : pressure, force , area
White raven [17]

Pressure- Pascal(N/m^2)

Force- Newton

Area-m^2(Square metre)

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Pressure is force continuous force applied to an object. The applied force is always perpendicular to the surface of the object.
  • Force is a push or pulls on an object by an external body where it changes its state from rest to motion.
  • Force is said to have both magnitude and direction.
  • Area is the portion that shows the scale of a 2D form or configuration in the level. The covering area is its analog on the 2D surface of a 3D object.
