Answer:
T = 92.8 min
Explanation:
Given:
The altitude of the International Space Station t minutes after its perigee (closest point), in kilometers, is given by:
Find:
- How long does the International Space Station take to orbit the earth? Give an exact answer.
Solution:
- Using the the expression given we can extract the angular speed of the International Space Station orbit:
- Where the coefficient of t is angular speed of orbit w = 2*p / 92.8
- We know that the relation between angular speed w and time period T of an orbit is related by:
T = 2*p / w
T = 2*p / (2*p / 92.8)
Hence, T = 92.8 min
Decay of Schizomycetes waste present in waste water leads to unpleasant smell.
These microorganisms, known as iron and sulfur bacteria, cause hydrogen sulfide to be found in water supplies. They include crenothrix and beggiatoa. Most often found in groundwater supplies, they produce an offensive odor of decaying matter. (I'm not sure)

Answer:
c) 12
Explanation:
A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.
If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.
Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.
