The correct answer is - False.

The North Pole is not going through a period of several weeks without night, but instead, it is going for several months without night. The areas that are a bit more south than the North Pole have several weeks of just day, and several weeks of just night, but the pole itself is more extreme. This occurs because of the inclination of the Earth, so in certain periods of the year it is either exclusively exposed towards the Sun, or it is totally out of its reach.

Explanation:

Due to the atmospheric absorption, the X-ray telescopes must be placed in the orbit to a higher altitude of 86,500 miles and as to detect the penetrating X rays that are used to study the soft radiation and to get a clear view of the universe.

Consider a galaxy which is 100 million light-years away. Calculate it speed, assuming that the Hubble constant is 22 km/sec/mill

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

2200

Explanation:

The Hubble law states that

v= H × d

where, v = speed, H = Humble constant, d = distance.

Thus

v=22 km/(sec/million ly)×100 million ly

=2200 km/sec.

At a regional airport with an elevation of 56 meters below sea level, the observed station pressure is 1029 mb.

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The answer is: D. 5.6 mb, added a.

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the pressure at sea level, knowing the pressure at the station level

QNH = 1013.25 [((0.0065 / 288.15) * H) + (QFE / 1013.25) ^ 1 / 5,256] ^ 5,256

From where:

QNH: Value of the pressure at sea level to be calculated. QNH stands for the atmospheric pressure transmitted in the METAR parts of an airfield.

H: Altitude of the observatory with respect to sea level

QFE: Barometric pressure at station level

The answer is: D. 5.6 mb, added a.
