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.

DerKrebs [107]

1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
20 grams = 0.02 kilogram

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²

A diver makes 1.0 revolutions on the way from a 9.2-m-high platform to the water. Assuming zero initial vertical velocity, find
____ [38]

Answer:

Average angular velocity ≈ 4.59 rad/s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

H = ut + (1/2)t² ............................ equation 1.

Where H= height, u = initial velocity(m/s), g = acceleration due to gravity(m/s²), t = time(s)  u= 0 ∴ ut =0

H =(1/2)gt².................................... equation 2.

making t² the subject of the relation in equation 2,

∴ t² = 2H/g

Where H = 9.2 m, g= 9.8 m/s

∴ t² = ( 2×9.2)/9.8

t = √(2 × 9.2/9.8) = √(18.4/9.8)

 t = 1.37 s.

The average angular velocity = θ/t

Where θ = is the number of revolution that the diver makes, t  = time

           θ = 1 rev.

Since 1 rev = 2π (rad)

           t = 1.37 s

 Average angular velocity = 2π/t

π = 3.143

 Average angular velocity = (2×3.143)/1.37 = 6.286/1.37

   Average angular velocity ≈ 4.59 rad/s
