Answer:

The winter solstice occurs around Dec 21 and the earth will still be cooling even tho after this time the days are getting longer.

The earth will not experience warming until sometime later and the heat received equals the heat radiated.

This is similar to ice age occurrences.

The earth can be warming, but it will take considerable time until the heat received exceeds the heat lost.

An astronaut sitting on the launch pad on Earth's surface is 6,400 kilometers from Earth's center and weighs 400 newtons. Calcul
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

weight at height = 100 N .

Explanation:

The problem relates to variation of weight  due to change in height .

Let g₀ and g₁ be acceleration due to gravity , m is mass of the object .

At the surface :

Applying Newton's law of gravitation

mg₀ = G Mm / R²

At height h from centre

mg₁ = G Mm /h²

Given mg₀ = 400 N

400 = G Mm / R²

400 = G Mm / (6400 x 10³ )²

G Mm = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²

At height h from centre

mg₁ =  400 x (6400 x 10³ )²/ ( 2 x 6400 x 10³)²

= 400 / 4

= 100 N .

weight at height = 100 N

PLZ HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

12.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of diver  = 77kg

Height of jump  = 8.18m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply the motion equation below:

             v²   = u²  + 2gH

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

       v² = 0²  +  2 x 9.8 x 8.18

     v  = 12.7m/s

If 3600 j of work is done in 3.0 s what is the power<br>0.00083W<br>1200W<br>3600W<br>11000W
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1200 W

Explanation:

Power is given by the ratio between work done and time taken:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where W is the work done and t the time taken.

In this problem, W = 3600 J and t = 3.0 s. Therefore, the power in this exercise is

P=\frac{3600 J}{3.0 s}=1200 W
