Answer:
1.1 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question,
F -mgμ = ma.................... Equation 1
Where F = applied force, m = mass of the apple cart, g = acceleration due to gravity, μ = coefficient of friction., a = acceleration of the apple cart.
Given: F = 115 N, m = 25 kg, μ = 0.35
Constant: g = 10 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 2
115-(25×10×0.35) = 25×a
115-87.5 = 25a
25a = 27.5
a = 27.5/25
a = 1.1 m/s²
Without an atmosphere, the equatorial curve would show minimum daily values on the solstices in June when the sub-solar point is located at 23.5°N and in December when the sub-solar point is at 23.5°S latitude.
Explanation:
At the sub-solar point, the sun strikes directly at the surface with an angle of 90 degrees at a given point.
Solistice refers to that point in time when the sun’s zenith is located at the farthest point from the equator.
During summer solistice on June 21, the sun’s zenith reaches northernmost point, sub-solar point is fixed at 23.5°S Tropic of Cancer making the earth tilt 23.4 degrees
During winter soliscitse on December 21, the sub-solar point is fixed at) Tropic of Capricorn.
Answer:
The distance of stars and the earth can be averagely measured by using the knowledge of geometry to estimate the stellar parallax angle(p).
From the equation below, the stars distances can be calculated.
D = 1/p
Distance = 1/(parallax angle)
Stellar parallax can be used to determine the distance of stars from an observer, on the surface of the earth due to the motion of the observer. It is the relative or apparent angular displacement of the star, due to the displacement of the observer.
Explanation:
Parallax is the observed apparent change in the position of an object resulting from a change in the position of the observer. Specifically, in the case of astronomy it refers to the apparent displacement of a nearby star as seen from an observer on Earth.
The parallax of an object can be used to approximate the distance to an object using the formula:
D = 1/p
Where p is the parallax angle observed using geometry and D is the actual distance measured in parsecs. A parsec is defined as the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. This distance is approximately 3.26 light years
