Answer:
During <u>winter (late December/early January)</u> the Earth is closest to the Sun and during <u>summer (late June/early July)</u> the Earth is farthest from the Sun.
Explanation:
In the northern hemisphere, the earth usually comes closer to the sun during the time of winter season, mostly in late December or early January.
On the other hand, the earth is farthest from the sun during the time of summer season, mostly in late June or early July.
When the earth is closer to the sun, during the winter, it is comparatively cold. It is due to the absorption of a lesser amount of incoming solar radiation. The tilt of the earth is also responsible for this low temperature.
But, when the earth is farthest from the sun, during the summer, it is comparatively hot. It is due to the absorption of a large amount of incoming solar radiation.

Question
What was the change in potential energy of the sheep?
Answer:
1962(m) J
Explanation:
Potential energy is given by
PE=mgh
Change in potential energy is given by
∆PE=mg(h2-h1)
Where ∆PE is the change in potential eneegy, g is acceleration due to gravity, h2 is final height and h1 is the initial height.
Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g, 1200 m for h2 and 1000 m for h1 then
∆PE=m*9.81(1200-1000)=1962m Joules
Since we are not given the mass of rhe sheep, the answer will be 1962(m) Joules
Ionic bond: it is also called "electrovalent bond". It is "a type of chemical bond that can often form between metal and non-metal ions through electrostatic attraction";
Covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding, "characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, or between atoms and other covalent bonds";
Metallic bond: "the chemical bond, which is characteristic of metals, in which mobile valence electrons are shared among atoms in a usually stable crystalline".
First find the time it takes to hit the sand t
using s=1/2 g t^2
t^2= 8/9.8= 0.82 seconds
This means the sand was s = 8 * 0.82 = 6.5m away
The horizontal speed stays constant at 8 m/s
The vertical speed =.82 * 9.8 = 8.0 m/s
As the two velocities are equal the angle must be 45 degrees to the horizontal
