This is not as simple as it looks.
His average speed is NOT (10km/hr + 50km/hr)/2 = 30 km/hr.
You have to use the definition of speed:
Speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).
Let's say the distance up (and down) the hill is 'd' .
Then the time it takes to go up the hill is (d/10) hours.
And the time it takes to come down the hill is (d/50) hours.
Total distance = 2d km
Total time = (d/10) + (d/50) = (5d/50) + (d/50) = 6d/50
Speed = distance/time = 2d/(6d/50) = 100d/6d
<em>Speed = </em>100/6 = <em>16-2/3 km/hr</em>
Answer:
Length of Eiffel tower, when the temperature is 35 degrees = 300.21 m
Explanation:
Thermal expansion is given by the expression
Here length of Eiffel tower, L = 300 m
Coefficient of thermal expansion, α = 0.000012 per degree Celsius
Change in temperature, = 35 - (-24) = 59degrees Celsius
Substituting
Length of Eiffel tower, when the temperature is 35 degrees = 300 + 0.2124 = 300.21 m
Answer:
Clockwise
Explanation:
All of the planets rotate the same way around the sun.
Answer:
Explanation:
Altitude of the Sun and the latitude position on the earth play an important role in the season change on the earth.
When the altitude of the sun is high then the average temperature of the earth is higher because the luminous intensity of the sun rays is higher due to the focusing of high energy sun rays over a small area.
But when the sun is at higher altitudes we receive less denser rays of the sun and hence we have less heat on the earth on an average.
- But despite of the altitude some places on the earth have distinct temperature than the other place at the same time of the year. This is due to their latitudinal location. The places near the equator are warmer most of the times throughout the year because they receive the most direct rays while the poles receive slanting rays and hence are colder even in summer when the earth is at lower altitudes.
