According to the 2004 Working Group of the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS), Earth experiences a flattening of 0.0033528 at the poles. This flattening is due to Earth’s rotational velocity – a rapid 1,674.4 km/h (1,040.4 mph) – which causes the planet to bulge at the equator.

Equatorial vs Polar Diameter:

Because of this, the diameter of the Earth at the equator is about 43 kilometers (27 mi) larger than the pole-to-pole diameter. As a result, the latest measurements indicate that the Earth has an equatorial diameter of 12,756 km (7926 mi), and a polar diameter of 12713.6 km (7899.86 mi).

In short, objects located along the equator are about 21 km further away from the center of the Earth (geocenter) than objects located at the poles. Naturally, there are some deviations in the local topography where objects located away from the equator are closer or father away from the center of the Earth than others in the same region.

Four-year-old Jenna is looking at a drawing of her family tree. Her father tells her she has three aunts and two grandmothers. H
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: She will most likely say she has more grandmothers.

Explanation: The four year old is more likely to say more grandmothers because a four year old might not or is incapable of some form of logical reasoning. By the age of 7 to 8, a child should be then capable of identifying the difference and similarities between grandmothers, aunts and relatives.

The UK that follows the best democratic norms in the world has no written constitution. why?​
inysia [295]

Explanation:

Because a Constitution is designed to tell the government what it cannot do with regards to the citizenry, and what rights it is not allowed to impinge upon. That’s essential in a Democratic Republic - after all, the people’s representatives are the ones making the decisions on behalf of everyone else. That’s slightly different to the system we have in the UK.

The UK isn’t a Democratic Republic: it’s a Parliamentary Democracy, which invariably means that, though we elect our representatives to a central government (in the same way that the US does with regards to Congress), our representatives are there to reflect our views, and not their own. The system of government itself is designed to be fluid, and change over time. When the public asked for stricter gun legislation in the wake of the Dunblane Massacre, we got it. No muss, no fuss. Even something as serious as the EU ‘Brexit’ mandate was something that we voted on beforehand. If it’d been the US, you’d have been told it was happening, or not happening.

It’s also worth noting that many of the Constitutional documents around the world are patterned on UK political documents that helped to shape the concept of modern democracy. The Magna Carta of 1215 helped to place limits upon the actions of autocratic monarchy and instituting the concepts of ‘due process’, the Case of Proclamations of 1610, which asserted that “the King by his proclamation or other ways cannot change any part of the common law, or statute law, or the customs of the realm”, the act of Habeas Corpus in 1679, the Bill of Rights of 1689…the list goes on.

Briefly describe the goals and scope of social work.
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The goal and scope of social work as laid down is noble and broad-to help an individual be included in society and to transform the very society that creates structures that marginalize individuals from full participation in the enjoyment of social services and resources of the community.
