Why does Sol mean?
Space and AstronomySol is a NASA term for Solar day and is essentially used by the planetary scientists. It refers to the time that it takes for Mars to revolve once around its own axis. Mars has a similar daily cycle as the Earth, and the term Sol is used to distinguish it for its longer solar
How graphs can be misleading?
Space and AstronomyThe “classic” types of misleading graphs include cases where: The Vertical scale is too big or too small, or skips numbers, or doesn’t start at zero. The graph isn’t labeled properly. Data is left out. What are 5 ways a graph can be misleading? Misleading graph methods Excessive usage. Biased labeling. Pie chart. Improper scaling.
How do you read Cartesian coordinates?
Space and AstronomyThe position of any point on the Cartesian plane is described by using two numbers: (x, y). The first number, x, is the horizontal position of the point from the origin. It is called the x-coordinate. The second number, y, is the vertical position of the point from the origin. How do you understand the
How do you find the monotonic transformation?
Space and AstronomyA function U is strictly increasing if c1 > c2 implies U(c1) > U(c2). A strictly decreasing utility function is defined similarly. Theorem 1.1. Preferences are monotone if and only if U is non-decreasing and they are strictly monotone if and only if U is strictly increasing. How do you know if a utility function
When two planes intersect two lines are formed True or false?
Space and Astronomy12 Cards in this Set One and only one distinct line can be drawn through two different points. True If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel. False If two different planes intersect, then their intersection is a line. True When two planes intersect are two lines formed? If two
How long should a brake caliper last?
Space and Astronomybetween 75,000 to 100,000 miles75,000 to 100,000 miles or 10 years. Do brake calipers wear out? Fortunately, your brake calipers are designed to last. Where your brake pads are designed to wear out with use (your rotors too, to some degree), a caliper is not considered a wear item, one that needs regular replacement. That
What is the condensation sequence theory?
Space and AstronomyIn planetary science, the condensation sequence refers to the order in which chemical compounds transition from gas to solid phase in a protoplanetary nebula (disk), based on the condensation temperature of each compound. What does condensation theory mean? The Condensation Theory: This theory proposes that the Moon and the Earth condensed individually from the nebula
Why magnification of concave mirror is negative?
Space and AstronomyMagnification is negative in a concave mirror. The magnification of a concave mirror is given by the ratio of the height of the image to the height of the object. Hence, if the image is inverted and real the magnification will be negative. Why magnification of concave mirror is positive? According to the new Cartesian
How many stars can we see in our galaxy?
Space and AstronomyAveraging out the types of stars within our galaxy, this would produce an answer of about 100 billion stars in the galaxy. This is subject to change, however, depending on how many stars are bigger and smaller than our own sun. Also, other estimates say the Milky Way could have 200 billion stars or more.
What is the quotient of two polynomials called?
Space and AstronomyA rational expression is a quotient of two polynomials. What is a quotient of polynomials? Any quotient of polynomials a(x)/b(x) can be written as q(x)+r(x)/b(x), where the degree of r(x) is less than the degree of b(x). For example, (x²-3x+5)/(x-1) can be written as x-2+3/(x-1). What do you call the quotient of two expressions? When
