Answer: During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. ... Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures. During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot.

During the summer, the sun’s rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures
During the winter, the sun’s rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot. Also, the long nights and short days prevent the Earth from warming up. Thus, we have winter

A tank of oxygen with a pressure of 23 atm is moved from room temperature of 293K to a storage freezer at 239K. What is the fina
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

18.76atm

Explanation:

Using the formula V1P1/T1 = V2P2/T2, from combined gas law. Volume is constant since we have not been given. Therefore the formula comes to be; P1/T1 = P2/T1

To get P2 = T2(P1/T1)

Where P2 is final pressure

P2 = 239K ( 23atm/293K)

=18.76atm

...hheeelppppp plzzz?? ​
TEA [102]

Answer:

9

Explanation:

n-factor of NaOH = 1

OH⁻ concentration = Normality of NaOH

                             = Molarity x n-factor

                             = 10⁻⁵ x 1

                             = 10⁻⁵  

Now, pOH = -㏒(OH⁻)

        pOH = -㏒(10⁻⁵)

        pOH = 5

We know pH + pOH = 14

               pH = 14 - 5 = 9

∴pH of 10⁻⁵M NaOH is 9

taurus [48]

The law of conservation of energy or first law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

From the context we can infer that Mr. Jones was describing the law of conservation of energy.

According to the law of conservation of energy:

  "energy is not created nor destroyed by can be transformed from one form to another" .

  The captured energy is a form of energy and it is change into other forms in the ecosystem.

Energy is initially captured in the ecosystem by plants.
