What causes the difference in the angle of the sun on the Earth's surface throughout the year?

1 answer:

Novosadov [1.4K]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

The axis is tilted and points to the North Star no matter where Earth is in its orbit. Because of this, the distribution of the Sun's rays changes. ... It also means that the angle at which sunlight strikes different parts of Earth's surface changes through the year.

A box is dropped onto a conveyor belt moving at 3.2 m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the belt is 0.28, ho

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

t = 1.16 s.

Explanation:

Given,

speed of conveyor belt, v = 3.2 m/s

coefficient of friction,f = 0.28

Using newton second law

f = ma

and we also know that frictional force

f = μ N

f = μ m g

equating both the force equation

a = μ g

a = 0.28 x 9.81

a = 2.75 m/s²

Using Kinematic equation

v = u + at

3.2 = 0 + 2.75 x t

t = 1.16 s.

Time taken by the box to move without slipping is 1.16 s.

You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle

AlekseyPX

Answer:

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

$- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

here we know that

$F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta$

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

$s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}$

now we have

$- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

so we have

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$
