What is Earth's Axis and why is it important when we talk about the seasons?

Chemistry

Nady [450]2 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Earth's axis is an imaginary pole going right through the center of Earth from "top" to "bottom." Earth spins around this pole, making one complete turn each day. That is why we have day and night, and why every part of Earth's surface gets some of each. Earth has seasons because its axis doesn't stand up straight.

Earth's axis is not perpendicular. It has an axial tilt or obliquity. Axial tilt is the angle between the planet's rotational axis and its orbital axis. A planet's orbital axis is perpendicular to the ecliptic or orbital plane, the thin disk surrounding the sun and extending to the edge of the solar system.

The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected.

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

Earths axis is tilted and also depends on the tilt according to the seasons. Earths axis is an imaginary line that isn’t visible, as seasons change you see changes in climate like summers are very hot and winters are cold, it’s all related to earths axis as in one part of the world is day while the other night some parts maybe evening (depends on the time), some parts winter some summer- sorry if I made it complicated but hope this gives u an idea, the other guy deserves brainliest tho

Which is the correct complete ionic equation for the reaction of
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)

Explanation:

The equation is given as;

2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) + H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq)

In writing an ionic equation, only the aqueous compounds dissociates into ions. This means HCl and ZnCl2 would dissociate to form ions.

This is given as;

2H+  +  2Cl-  + Zn(s) --> H2(g) + Zn2+  + 2Cl-

The correct option is;

b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)

What is the name of the ability to use up energy in one second
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Work

Explanation:

Work is defined as the ability to use energy in one second and its SI unit is same as energy that is joule.

Work refers to the energy utilized to displace an object over a distance by an external force in one direction and in given time period which can be one second as well.

Hence, the correct answer is "work".
