Answer:

The solar radiation is one of the main factors that shapes the climate all over the globe, so the climate differs with the less or more solar radiation it gets. The polar regions are cold, this is due to the fact that the solar radiation in here is very obscure, because the solar radiation falls at a very wide angle the heat is dispersed over larger area, thus the land gets very little warmth. The Equator, on the other hand, gets direct solar radiation, the sun light falls at a 90 degrees angle or close to it, so the radiation is more concentrated on a smaller area, thus the warming is bigger.

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If v is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) v

==> v ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you halve the power output:

E / (2t ) = 1/2 × E/t = 1/2 P

A 16.0kg canoe moving to the left at 12.5m/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 14.0kg raft moving to the right at 16.0m/

kherson [118]

The canoe is moving at 14.1 m/s to the right after the collision.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum, in absence of external forces the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision. So we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2$

where:

$m_1 = 16.0 kg$ is the mass of the canoe

$u_1 = -12.5 m/s$ is the initial velocity of canoe (we take right as positive direction, and since the canoe is moving to the left, its velocity is negative)
