Answer: True
Explanation:
The phases occur because the sun lights different parts of the moon as the moon revolves around the earth
The formula used to find potential energy is <em>P.E. = M * G * H</em> (P.E. is potential energy, M is mass, G is gravitational pull, and H is height). So the answer to your question is <em>5 * 9.8 * 2</em>, which equals 98.
Answer: The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
Explanation:
The amount of incoming energy from the Sun decides the weather and climate of earth. If the energy that is incoming and outgoing on the earth, then climate is in equilibrium. The balance is depending on the scattering, absorption, reflection and transformation of energy.
The energy from sun passes through space and reaches the earth’s surface. On reaching surface, the solar energy warms the atmosphere releasing heat energy which gets transferred throughout the planets system by radiation, conduction and convection. Conduction happens in the atmosphere within first several millimeters close to the surface. This heated air expands as it is dense and rises causing transfer of heat to atmosphere through convection process. It results in formation of clouds.
The radiant energy from sun is transmitted via space in form of invisible waves. But much of the suns radiant energy, is transmitted back to atmosphere. The objects on earth like land, plants, animals absorb radiant energy as heat of which one third gets re-radiated back to atmosphere that is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor. The atmosphere radiates heat energy back to earth increasing the earth temperature. This trapping of radiation is greenhouse effect.
The thermal energy obtained by convection currents are responsible for wind, cloud formation, and weather formation. The hydrosphere that comprises of 70% of earth’s surface absorbs solar energy.
On the basis of the above explanation is:
The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
Correct question is;
1/0.12 = (1/0.05) + (1/d')
Answer:
d' = -1/700
Explanation:
1/0.12 = (1/0.05) + (1/d')
Let's rearrange to get;
(1/d') = (1/0.12) - (1/0.05)
(1/d') = (1/(12/100)) - (1/(5/100))
(1/d') = 100/12 - 100/5
Let's multiply through by 60 to get rid of the denominators on the right side;
> (1/d') = 500 - 1200
> (1/d') = -700
> d' = -1/700
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) The force of gravity is called an attractive force because it is the force (although weak) in which a planetary body or matter uses to attract an object towards itself.
(b) Yes, it does and the formula for force of gravity between any two object is
F = G
where m1 and m2 are masses of the first and second object respectively
r is the distance between the center of the two masses
G is the gravitational constant
