Answer:

B. the stars to come back to the same positions in the sky.

Explanation:

In fact, the solar day is equivalent to more than a rotation, because when the point has turned completely, it is not, as it should, in the same position with respect to the Sun.

The reason for this is that while performing the rotation, the Earth simultaneously moved following its orbit around the Sun.

When the reference point completed its rotation, the Earth already moved almost 2,500,000 km., So that to see the Sun again it will be necessary to turn a little more.

Solar day is more than a rotation. The sidereal or sidereal day, commonly used by astronomers, is also based on the rotation of the Earth; but in this case a distant star is taken as a reference (sidereal comes from the Latin sidus which means "star").

How big the sun is compared to the planets

Ksivusya [100]

<span>The sun's circumference is about 2,713,406 miles (4,366,813 km). The total volume of the sun is 1.4 x 1027 cubic meters. About 1.3 million Earths could fit inside the sun. The mass of the sun is 1.989 x 1030 kilograms, about 333,000 times the mass of the Earth. hope this helps! :) please chose brainlest

In designing circular rides for amusement parks, mechanical engineers must consider how small variations in certain parameters c

Bess [88]

Answer:

Part a)

$dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr$

Part b)

$dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}$

Part c)

$dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that force on the passenger while moving in circle is given as

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

now variation in force is given as

$dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr$

here speed is constant

Part b)

Now if the variation in force is required such that r is constant then we will have

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

so we have

$dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}$

Part c)

As we know that time period of the circular motion is given as

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}$

so here if radius is constant then variation in time period is given as

$dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv$

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change

Verdich [7]

The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together

Which of the following models shows how unpredictable electrons are?

Fantom [35]

The exact location of electrons in electron shells of atoms cannot be exactly ascertained. This is why VSPER atomic models represent the position of electrons (s, p, d, & f) using the probability of where they would most be expected to be found.

Explanation:

This is because merely observing electrons changes their behavior. Remember that to observe something one has to shine light on it so it bounces back to the eye. Due to the negligible mass of electrons, mere photons of light will change their direction of movement, spin or other behaviors/properties.

The electrons lost from chlorophyll photooxidation are replaced by the oxidation of water. how many electrons are generated from

White raven [17]

There are 2 electrons generated from the oxidation of one water molecule.

<h3>Describe photooxidation.</h3>

The process of a substance interacting with oxygen or losing electrons from chemical species under the influence of light is known as photooxidation. Photooxidation happens in plants when there is environmental stress. It is called photooxidative stress as a result. Reactive oxygen species are produced by the absorption of excess excitation energy in plant tissues. Chloroplasts are harmed by the accumulation of these reactive oxygen species, which is a damaging process in plants. High-intensity light and little $CO_{2}$ are the two conditions that cause this photooxidative stress to occur most frequently. It is a procedure that requires light. Photorespiration in $C_{3}$ plants guards against photooxidation.
