Answer:
During <u>winter (late December/early January)</u> the Earth is closest to the Sun and during <u>summer (late June/early July)</u> the Earth is farthest from the Sun.
Explanation:
In the northern hemisphere, the earth usually comes closer to the sun during the time of winter season, mostly in late December or early January.
On the other hand, the earth is farthest from the sun during the time of summer season, mostly in late June or early July.
When the earth is closer to the sun, during the winter, it is comparatively cold. It is due to the absorption of a lesser amount of incoming solar radiation. The tilt of the earth is also responsible for this low temperature.
But, when the earth is farthest from the sun, during the summer, it is comparatively hot. It is due to the absorption of a large amount of incoming solar radiation.
When designing tires for a car, an engineer must consider the materials that will be used to fabricate the tires ... both the suitability of the materials for the purpose, and their cost.
For example, the engineer should not design car tires to be made of glass or of silk, since these would not hold up well when driving on concrete roads, and they would need to be replaced too often.
For another example, he should not design car tires to be made of gold or polished diamond, since these would be beyond the price range of most car owners, and also, these tires would be very susceptible to being stolen by nefarious and dishonest individuals in the middle of the night.

I hope this answer is helpful. The question you posted is a very difficult one, because there are no answer choices listed, and also because the question has the mysterious unknown term "the following" in it.
Answer: B: It can be made out of wire
Explanation: i just had this question and put this answer and gotten it right:)
Answer:
Explanation:
The mass of that science book...wow. In pounds that would be 35.2! Yikes!
Anyway, we need final velocity here, and the mass of the book has nothing to do with how fast it falls. Everything is pulled by the same gravity. A feather falls at 9.8 m/s/s and so does an elephant. Mass is useless information. The equation we will use is
Δx where
v is the final velocity, our unknown,
v₀ is the initial velocity which is 0 since someone had to be holding the book before dropping it,
a is the pull of gravity which is always -9.8 m/s/s, and
Δx = -120 which is the displacement (it's negative because the book falls below the point from which it was dropped). Filling in:
so
and
v = 48 m/s
As far as how far above the bottom of the cliff the object is when it is moving at 12 m/s we will use the same equation, but the velocity will be 12:
Δx and
144 = -19.6Δx so
Δx = -7.3 m. That's how far from the top of the cliff it is. We subtract then t find out how far it is from the bottom:
120 - 7.3 = 112.7 m off the ground.
