Why is the Earth generally warmer at the equator than at the poles?

Answers

Answer 1
Because of the earths curve and temperature. The temperature in an area depends on the amount of the Sun's energy reaching the surface in that area. The equator tilts closer to the sun than the poles do. I hope this helps!
Answer 2

Answer: The Sun's energy is more concentrated on the equator than the poles. This is because the Sun's energy (in the form of warmth) is more direct at the equator, and less direct at the poles.

Explanation: You can see this with a flashlight. When you point the flashlight directly toward a tale, the light is very concentrated and right. However, when you point the flashlight toward the table at an angle, the light becomes more spread out and less concentrated.  This is why even though sometimes the North Poles and South Poles have 24 hours of sunlight, it never actually reaches a high temperature and instead, keeps it's cold temperature.

A motorcyclist sees a branch in the road and hits the brakes, slowing down at -6.42 m/s. if it takes him 2.85 seconds to stop, what was his starting velocity?

Answers

Use the definition of average acceleration:

a = ∆v / t

If v is the starting speed, then ∆v = 0 - v, so solve for v :

-6.42 m/s² = (0 - v) / (2.85 s)

v = (6.42 m/s²) (2.85 s)

v ≈ 18.3 m/s

What is the net force (including direction and magnitude) acting on the object on the above left?

What is the net force (including direction and magnitude) acting on the object on the above right?

Answers

Answer:

-150 N

Explanation:

(Newton's second law) F=ma

Sum of forces in Y direction= (+200 N)+(-200 N)= 0...

forces cancel, object does not accelerate up/down

Sum of forces in X direction= (+65 N)+(-65 N)+(-150 N)

= -150 N

notice that the +/- 65 components cancel, leaving a net force of 150 N in the LEFTwards direction (which is typically defined as negative)

Overall, the net force is -150 N

Two children are spinning on a miracle round. What is 50 cm from the center and the other is 100 cm from the center. Which child has the larger linear speed?

Answers

Answer:

The one that is 100 cm from the center.

Explanation:

Given that merry-go-round means moving at uniform circular motion or constant angular speed. Hence the person who is closer to the center is moving at a slower speed, while the one far away from the center has a larger linear speed because he has moved a long distance in the same amount of time, despite being on these objects.

To illustrate

A with the 50 cm

B with the 100 cm

Hence, to get speed, we have

A = 2 * pi * 50 / T

B = 2 * pi * 100 / T

And by the explanation of angular speed

We have w = 2*pi/T where w is the angular speed in radians/s

Hence we have

A = 50w

B = 100w

Therefore, the one that is 100 cm from the center has a larger linear speed.

Then calculate the acceleration of the box. Lastly, calculate the acceleration if Mathew decides to run for his life and stop pulling.

Answers

Explanation:

N/B: Please see attached a rough sketch of the free body diagram for your reference.

From the diagram, the weight W is acting downward and the resultant R is in the positive direction

Given data

mass m=20kg

Forces

Jacob is pulling with 50 N,

Matthew with 40 N, and

Savannah is pulling with 60 N in a negative direction

Required

The net force

Net force= 50+40-(60)

               =90-60

               =30N in the possitive direction(in Jacob and Mathew's direction)

we know that F=ma

a=F/m

a= 30/20

a=1.5m/s^2

if Mathew decides to run for his life and stop pulling the net force will be

Net force=50-60=-10N (in Savannah's direction)

A car traveling at 25 m/s speeds up to 30 m/s over a period of 5 seconds. The average acceleration of the car is?

Answers

Answer:

a= 1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Average acceleration can be found by dividing the change in velocity by the time.

a= ΔV/t

The change in velocity is the difference of the final velocity and initial velocity.

ΔV= final velocity - initial velocity

The final velocity is 30 m/s and the initial velocity is 25 m/s

ΔV= 30 m/s- 25 m/s

ΔV= 5 m/s

The time is 5 seconds.

Now we know the two values.

ΔV= 5 m/s

t= 5 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

a= 5 m/s / 5 s

Divide.

a= 1 m/s/s

a= 1 m/s^2

The average acceleration of the car is 1 meter per second squared.

A truck accelerates from 25 km/hr to 45 km/hr in 40 seconds. Calculate the average acceleration of the vehicle in m/s?.​

Answers

Answer:

0.138889 m/s2

Explanation:

The average acceleration of the vehicle would be 0.139 meters/second².

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object.

As given in the problem a truck accelerates from 25 kilometers/hour to 45  kilometers/hour in 40 seconds.

Let us first convert the velocities from kilometers/hour to meters/seconds

25 kilometers/hour ⇒ 25×1000/3600

                                    = 6.94 meters/seconds

45 kilometers/seconds =  45×1000/3600

                                       = 12.5 meters/seconds

acceleration = change in the velocity/time

                     =(12.5 -6.94)/40

                     =0.139 meters/second²

Thus, the acceleration of the truck would be 0.139 meters/second²

An airplane is flying with velocity of 70km\hr in north east direction .The wind is blowing 30km\hr from north to south.What is the resultant displacement of the aeroplane in 4 h

Answers

Answer:

The resultant displacement of the airplane in 4 hours is 212.8 km.

Explanation:

The components of the airplane's velocity and wind's velocity are:

Airplane:

[tex] v_{a_{x}} = v_{a}cos(45) = 70 km/h*cos(45) = 49.50 km/h [/tex]

[tex] v_{a_{y}} = v_{a}sin(45) = 70 km/hsin(45) = 49.50 km/h [/tex]

Wind:

[tex] v_{w_{x}} = 0 [/tex]

[tex] v_{w_{y}} = v_{w} = -30 km/h [/tex]

Now, to know the new velocity of the airplane we to find the result vector:

[tex] v_{x} = v_{a_{x}} + v_{w_{x}} = 49.50 km/h + 0 = 49.50 km/h [/tex]

[tex]v_{y} = v_{a_{y}} + v_{w_{y}} = 49.50 km/h - 30 km/h = 19.50 km/h[/tex]  

Now, the magnitude of the new speed of the airplane is:

[tex] v_{a} = \sqrt{v_{x}^{2} + v_{y}^{2}} = \sqrt{(49.50 km/h)^{2} + (19.50 km/h)^{2}} = 53.20 km/h [/tex]

Finally, after 4 hours the resultant displacement of the airplane is:

[tex] x = v*t = 53.20 km/h*4 h = 212.8 km [/tex]

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the airplane in 4 hours is 212.8 km.

applied between them - Calculate v if the beam is deflected
so that it just grazes the edge of the lower plate.(e/m = 1.8×10^11 c/kg)​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

electrical field in vertical direction = V / .02  , .02 is distance between plate and V is potential difference .

force on electrons = V x e / .02

acceleration of falling electrons

= V x e /( .02  x m )

= 50 x 1.8 x 10¹¹ V

a = 9 x 10¹² V .

Time to cover length of plate

t = .05 / 10⁷ = 5  x 10⁻⁹ s ,      velocity of electron = 10⁷ m /s .

vertical distance covered by electron s = .01 m with acceleration a in time t

s = 1/2 a t²

.01 = .5 x 9  V  x 10¹²  x ( 5 x 10⁻⁹ )²

10⁻² = 4.5 x 25  x 10⁻¹⁸ x 10¹² V

The genetic material of an offspring of sexually reproducing organisms is best described as genes from both parents in unique combinations.

SEXUAL REPRODUCTION:

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves two organisms (a male and a female).

The male organism produces a gamete called SPERM while the female organism produces a gamete called EGG. The gametes are produced via a process called MEIOSIS.

Meiosis is a process of cell division whereby genetically different daughter cells are produced. The genetic variation is attributed to a process called crossing over, which is the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.

At the end of the fertilization process between male sperm and female egg, the genetic material of the offspring will contain genes from both parents in unique combinations.

What is gravitational potential energy?

The energy that an item has or acquires when its location changes as a result of being in a gravitational field are known as gravitational potential energy. Gravitational potential energy can be defined as energy that has a connection to gravitational force or gravity.

The energy of gravity, or gravitational potential energy, is also related to the Earth. An object has gravitational potential energy if it is at a certain height above the Earth's surface. The object's potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy when it is released. Due to the rule of conservation of energy, the sum of the two is always constant.

The test object is positively pulled by the gravitational force from infinity to a location inside the gravitational field. Because gravitational force is inverse square, it is 0 at infinity. As a result, infinity is used as the starting point.
