Voyager I is now about 110 AU from Earth, continuing to record its environment as it approaches the limits of our Solar System.

Monica [59]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

(i) 1 Astronomical Unit (A.U.) = 1.496 x 10^8 Km.

Therefore, distance of Voyager I from Earth = 71 AU = 71 x 1.496 x 10^8 = 1.062 x 10^10 Km.

(ii) The nearest star to Earth than sun is the Proxima Centauri in the Alpha Centauri system. The Proxima Centauri is 4.22 light years away from Earth.

As, 1 Light year = 63241.1 AU

The distance of the Proxima Centauri from Earth = 4.22 x 63241.1 AU = 266877.3 AU

The distance of the Voyager I from Earth = 71 AU

The number of times the distance of the Proxima Centauri from Earth is greater than that of Voyager I is = 266877.3 / 71

= 3758.835 times.

(iii) Speed of light is 1.079 x 10^9 Km/hr

Light travels 1.079 x 10^9 km in 1 hr

Therefore, 1. 062 x 10^10 Km is traveled by light in = (1.062 x 10^10) / (1.079 x 10^9) hr = 9.84 hours

That means when Voyager I was 71 AU from Earth, a observational data from Voyager I at the speed of light took 9.84 hours to reach Earth.

Thinking about "globalization," how are international trade, deforestation and climate change linked in a systematic manner?

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The process of globalization in dependent on the flow of trade and commerce and the spread effects are viewed in terms of massive terms of automation.

Explanation:

The international trade and deforestation, along with the climatic changes are an important aspect of understanding the globalization processes. As the movement of traditional societies to the full-grown urban and cosmopolitan world globalization has created waves in the international trade of goods and resources.

As a result, it had led to the exploitation of natural resources to its best and hence it has led to the massive deforestation of grasslands and tree lands. At times certain items that are the safeguard of the interests of the nation are kept away from these trade like country soils etc.

Climatic changes thus also get along with this type of process as the global temperature rise and the earth starts to heat up and the rise in the levels of temperature from 1 to 3 degrees and further depletion of glaciers from the poles has set the stage for another ice age event on earth.
