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.

HELP ASAP Describe when contact metamorphism occurs?

diamong [38]

Contact metamorphism occurs adjacent to igneous intrusions and results from high temperatures associated with the igneous intrusion. Since only a small area surrounding the intrusion is heated by the magma, metamorphism is restricted to the zone surrounding the intrusion, called a metamorphic or contact aureole

In a level parking lot, a man with a mass of 100 kg gives a shove to a boy with a mass of 50 kg who is on roller skates. The boy

natita [175]

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that whenever an object exerts a force on a second object, it exerts a force of equal magnitude and direction but in the opposite direction on the first. It is often stated as follows: Each action always opposes an equal but opposite reaction.

The subject 1 of 100kg is making a force F, to move an object from 50Kg to 2m / s ^ 2. This Force the object of 50Kg will reflect it in the opposite direction by Newton's third law.

Once the parameter of the force that both are experiencing is clarified, Newton's second law is applied to their respective calculation.

$F = ma = 50kg * 2m / s ^ 2 = 100N$

That is the force the boy exert on the man during the shove.
