Answer:

By electromagnetic waves.

Explanation:

The sun transfers heat to earth via electromagnetic waves  in twomajor  ways:

Radiation- this is the transfer of energy by invisible electromagnetic ways.

Convection-The radiant sun energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This transfer of heat through movement of fluids or usually air is called convection.

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

José is pinned against the walls of the Rotor, a ride with a radius of 3.00 meters that spins so fast that the floor can be remo
zaharov [31]

r = radius of the circle of the ride = 3.00 meters

v = linear speed of the person during the ride = 17.0 m/s

m = mass of the person in angular motion in the ride

L = angular momentum of the person in the ride = 3570 kg m²/s

Angular momentum is given as

L = m v r

inserting the values

3570 kg m²/s = m (17 m/s) (3.00 m)

m = 3570 kg m²/s/(51 m²/s)

m = 7 kg

hence the mass comes out to be 7 kg

Pamela drove her car 999999 kilometers and used 999 liters of fuel. she wants to know how many kilometers (k)(k)left parenthesis
Vanyuwa [196]
When the relationship between two variables are said to be proportional, it means that one variable is a constant multiple of the other variable. They are related by a constant of proportionality, usually denoted as k. 

In this problem, the dependent variable is the distance in kilometers. Your mileage is limited with the amount of fuel you have. Thus, the independent variable is the liters of fuel. When these two are proportional, it could be expressed as

distance = k * liters of fuel, such that 
distance/liters of fuel = k

By variation,

distance,1/liters of fuel,1 = distance,2/liters of fuel,2, where 1 denotes situation 1 and 2 denotes situation 2. Therefore,

 999999 km /<span>999 liters =  x km /</span><span>121212 liters, where x is the unknown distance. We can now therefore find the value of x.

x = (999999*121212)/999
x = 121333212 kilometers</span>

lidiya [134]

Answer:

ma= ma

m⋅a = m⋅a

And equivalently:

am=ma

a⋅m = m⋅a

Explanation:

Question

Assuming this question "Similar to what you see in your textbook, you can generally omit the multiplication symbol as you answer questions online, except when the symbol is  needed to make your meaning clear. For example, 1*10^5 is not the same as 110^5 . When you need to be explicit, type * (Shift + 8) to insert the multiplication operator. You will see a multiplication dot (⋅) appear in the answer box. Do not use the symbol x. For example, for the expression ma,

typing m⋅a would be correct, but mxa would be incorrect".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to write a expression for ma, and based on the previous info we can write:

ma= ma

m⋅a = m⋅a

And equivalently:

am=ma

a⋅m = m⋅a

But is not correct do this:

mxa=mxa

axm = mxa
