The longitude based on the time difference is 15 degrees.

<h3>Longitude of complete rotation of the Earth</h3>

The longitude of a complete rotation of the earth in a 24 hours is calculated  as follows;

= \frac{360^0}{24} = 15^0 \ of \ longitude

<h3>Time difference</h3>

The time difference between the local apparent solar time and the Greenwich time is calculated as follows;

t = 12 pm \ - \ 11 am\\\\t = 1 \ hour

Since it is one hour time difference, the longitude is 15 degrees.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>20 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{2000}{100}  = 20 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

In covalent bonds what is being shared
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Image result for In covalent bonds what is being shared

A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

A beam of white light enters a prism of crown glass (n = 1.5) from air (n = 1.00). Once inside, the colors in the light disperse
eduard

Answer:

= 2.33

Explanation:

.According to snell's law:

n1sin i = n2sin r ,

where n1 is refractive index of the medium in which incident ray is travelling, n2 is the refractive index of the medium in which refracted ray is travelling,

i is angle of incidence,

r is angle of refraction.

Given that,

n1 = 1,

i = 51 degrees,

r = 19.5 degrees. ,

n2= ?

So,

1*sin 51 = n2 sin 19.5  

=> n2 = sin51 / sin19.5

 = 2.33

Which of the following is true A. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the object must be in equilibrium
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

A. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the object must be in equilibrium

Explanation:

Equilibrium, in physics, the condition of a system when neither its state of motion nor its internal energy state tends to change with time.

For a single particle, equilibrium arises if the vector sum of all forces acting upon the particle is zero.

the object is at equilibrium, then the net force acting upon the object should be 0 Newton. Thus, if all the forces are added together as vectors, then the resultant force (the vector sum) should be 0 Newton.

There are three types of equilibrium: stable, unstable, and neutral
