The structure and curvature of the Earth results in beams of sunlight glancing off the equator and reaching other areas of the Earth. This means that the areas at the equator receive more energy as sun's rays hit them directly.
Therefore, the answer is C.
Answer:
41.41 m
Explanation:
When force F is applied on an object of mass m for time t and velocity v₁ is created
F X t = mv₁
F = 95 N , t = .53 s, m = 655 kg
95 x .53 = 655 x v₁
v₁ = .0768 m/s
Applying conservation of momentum on man and satellite
m₁ v₁ = m₂v₂
655 x .0768 = 82 xv₂
v₂ = .6134 m/s
their relative velocity
= .6134 + .0768
= .6902 ( they are in opposite direction )
After 60 second distance between them
= 60 x .6902 m
= 41.41 m
The theodolite is a precision measuring device used to measure horizontal and vertical angles. It works with a combination of: (1) optical plummets, which is used to ensure that it is placed exactly vertical above; (2) internal spirit, which ensures that it is levelled to the horizon; and (3) graduated circles, one vertical and one horizontal, which is used to measure actual angles. The mounted telescope can swivel horizontally and vertically. If this is adjusted correctly, accurate measurements can be obtained.
