Latitude and longitude are the two coordinates that determine a specific point on the Earth’s surface. How does knowing the loca
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

hey sandra! i hope this will help you!

Explanation:

The geographic coordinate system is a reference system that uses the two angular latitude (north or south) and longitude (east or west) coordinates to determine the positions of the land surface points. These two angular coordinates measured from the center of the Earth are from a spherical coordinate system that is aligned with its axis of rotation. These coordinates are usually expressed in sexagesimal degrees:

Latitude measures the angle between any point and the equator. Latitude lines are called parallel and are circles parallel to the equator on the Earth's surface. Latitude is the distance between any point and Ecuador, measured on the meridian that passes through that point.

• All points located on the same parallel have the same latitude.

• Those who are in the north of Ecuador receive the denomination North (N).

• Those who are in the south of Ecuador receive the denomination South (S).

• It is measured from 0º to 90º.

• The latitude of 0º corresponds to Ecuador.

• The North and South poles have latitude 90º N and 90º S respectively.

The length measures the angle along the equator from any point on Earth. It is accepted that Greenwich in London is length 0 in most modern societies. The lines of length are maximum circles that pass through the poles and are called meridians.

• All points located on the same meridian have the same length.

• Those who are east of Meridian Zero receive the designation East (E).

• Those who are west of Meridian Zero receive the denomination West (O).

• It is measured from 0º to 180º.

• The Greenwich meridian corresponds to the length 0º.

By combining these two angles, the position of any point on the Earth's surface can be expressed.

Identify and define the four major forms of matter, explain how melting, freezing, boiling,
mina [271]

There are four forms of matter: Solid, Liquid, gas and Plasma and matter undergoes various state changes termed as melting, freezing, boiling, evaporation, condensation, sublimation and deposition.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Solids

A matter that have a definite shape because of its closely packed molecular structure; are known as Solids. It can be identified as they have a definite shape and cannot flow or float without external forces are applied.

Liquids

These have a an internal molecular structure with comparatively more spaces with one another. Liquids have a property to flow and change shape according to the container it is taken.

Gases

The internal molecular structure of gases has the widest range of space among one another and thus they have a floating property because of least density.

Plasma

A complete ionized gas which has equal amount of positively and negatively charged ions. The best example of plasma is a plasma-ball.

<u>Phase transformation among the four forms of matter</u>

<u>Melting</u>

A matter changing from a solid phase to liquid phase is known as melting. Ex: Ice into water

<u>Freezing</u>

A matter changing from liquid to solid is known as freezing.

<u>Boiling</u>

When the liquid is heated to its boiling point, this gets transformed into the state of gas where liquid's pressure equals to the external pressure.

<u>Evaporation</u>

Once the liquid reached the temperature range above the boiling point ad starts converting into vapours or gaseous state.

<u>Condensation</u>

When the gases changes from the gaseous phase to liquid phase, this is called condensation.

<u>Sublimation</u>

The change of solid into gas is called as sublimation.

<u>Deposition</u>

Deposition refers the thermodynamic process where phase transition takes place as the gas solidifies without passing through the liquid phase. An example: the process of converting water vapour from frozen air directly into ice without initially becoming a liquid.

A 45 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.8 m/s just before hitting the ground.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

change  in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide  = mgh

= 45 x 9.8 x 11

= 4851 J

b )

kinetic energy of bear just before hitting the ground

= 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 45 x 5.8²

= 756.9 J

c ) If  the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear be F

negative work done by friction

= F x 11 J

then ,

4851 J -  F x 11 =  756.9 J

F x 11 = 4851 J -   756.9 J

= 4094.1 J

F = 4094.1 / 11

= 372.2 N
