If Earth was with no tilt, would we still have seasons at all? If so, how would they be different?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

If earth had no tilt, we would have no seasons.

Explanation:

As stated in the answer, if the earth had no tilt we wouldn't have seasons. The earth all around the globe would maintain the same temperature,

And due to the no tilt it would also change our orbit to a bit larger slant, in January when we are at our closest to the sun we WOULD have a mini summer. For the North and South Pole, they would remain cold.

Identify a situation in which you would want to have a high
Andreyy89

Answer: A voltmeter must have a high resistance where as an ammeter must have a low resistance.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is a device which is connected in parallel to the component across which voltage needs to be measured. In a parallel circuit voltage drop is same at the nodes. The parallel connection must not offer easier path for current to divert from the main circuit and travel. Thus, a voltmeter must have high resistance.

On the other hand, an ammeter which is used to measure current in the circuit must have low resistance as it is connected in series. It should not offer resistance as it would reduce the actual current and measurement would be inaccurate.

An intravenous (IV) system is supplying saline solution to a patient at the rate of 0.06 cm3/s through a needle of radius 0.2 mm
horsena [70]

Answer:

Pressure applied to the needle is 7528 Pa

Explanation:

As we know by poiseuille's law of flow of liquid through a cylindrical pipe

the rate of flow through the pipe is given as

Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}

now we know that

Q = 0.06 \times 10^{-6} m^3/s

radius = 0.2 mm

Length = 6.32 cm

\eta = 1\times 10^{-3} Pa s

now we have

6 \times 10^{-8} = \frac{\Delta P \pi (0.2 \times 10^{-3})^4}{8(1 \times 10^{-3})6.32 \times 10^{-2}}

3.03 \times 10^{-11} = \Delta P 5.02 \times 10^{-15}

\Delta P = 6028 Pa

now we have

P - 1500 = 6028 Pa

P = 7528 Pa
