I was in Anchorage Alaska during the Summer Solstice. The sun rose around 3am and set around 1 am the next day-- almost 24 hours

of sunlight. If the tilt of the Earth was changed to be 10 degrees, how would the length of daylight in Alaska change at the Summer Solstice

Answer:

Daylight hours would be shorter.

Explanation:

If there were no tilt of the axis at all, every place on the planet except the north and south poles would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night every day of the year.

At a 10° tilt, the arctic circle and antarctic circles would be a little less than half the distance from the poles as they are today.

two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel .calculate the equivalent series resist
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel.

For series combination,

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2

For parallel combination,

\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in series,

R_s=6+3\\\\R_s=9\ \Omega

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in paralle,

\dfrac{1}{R_p}=\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\R_p=2\ \Omega

So, the equivalent resistance in series combination is 9 ohms and in parallel combination it is 2 ohms.

The angular speed of an automobile engine is increased at a constant rate from 1120 rev/min to 2560 rev/min in 13.8 s. (a) What
Neko [114]

Complete Question

The angular speed of an automobile engine is increased at a constant rate from 1120 rev/min to 2560 rev/min in 13.8 s.

(a) What is its angular acceleration in revolutions per minute-squared

(b) How many revolutions does the engine make during this 20 s interval?

rev

Answer:

a

 \alpha = 6261 \  rev/minutes^2

b

 \theta  = 613 \ revolutions

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial  angular speed is w_i =  1120 \ rev/minutes

    The angular speed after t = 13.8 s = \frac{13.8}{60 }  = 0.23 \ minutes  is w_f = 2560 \ rev/minutes

    The time for revolution considered is t_r =  20 \ s  =  \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \  minutes  

 Generally the angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

         \alpha = \frac{w_f - w_i }{t}

=>      \alpha = \frac{2560  - 1120 }{0.23}  

=>      \alpha = 6261 \  rev/minutes^2

Generally the number of revolution made is t_r =  20 \ s  =  \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \  minutes  is mathematically represented as

           \theta  =  \frac{1}{2}  * (w_i + w_f)*  t

=>      \theta  =  \frac{1}{2}  * (1120+ 2560 )*  0.333

=>      \theta  = 613 \ revolutions

How does the size of a planet affected the amount and type of gas in its atmosphere
dalvyx [7]
There are lots of variables that directly and indirectly contribute to the presence of gas on a surface
if the size of a planet is relatively small it will in turn be that of a smaller area which results in the less area to be covered for gas which basically means higher presence
I can go in depth more but I don't think that would be necessary all you need to know is this ...based on the size and gas will in turn be parallel to it's conformity

romanna [79]

Answer:

a. 299,792,458 m/s

Explanation:

Since the speed of light in a vacuum is invariant and has the value of 299,792,458 m/s, we would measure this value of 299,792,458 m/s for the speed of light from the star as it arrives on Earth.
