Question

A. Ranking Instructions: Rank the time (from longest to shortest) that each location spends in daylight during the 24 hour rotation period. Ranking Order: Longest time 1 _____ 2 _____ 3 _____ 4 _____ 5 _____ Shortest time Or, the time spent in daylight for each location is the same. ________ (indicate with check mark). Carefully explain your reasoning for ranking this way: _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________

Answer 1

@Shalante

Answer 2

Is this something simple that i am too dumb to see? or is it slightly difficult...

Answer 3

It is just concepts.
I'll explain in a bit.

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

Can you write out B because it is cut off.

Answer 6

Rank the time (from longest to shortest) that each location spends in daylight during each 24 hour period.

Answer 7

Ok thanks.

Answer 8

We know the order B and C are opposite of each other
The longer the water stays in daylight the hotter it gets.

Answer 9

To figure which takes the fastest to rotate, you would use rotational speed formula.

Answer 10

Rotational speed depends on latitude.
As you can see they all have different latitude.

Answer 11

hmm... okay.
may i ask you something

Answer 12

By using the rotational speed formula, Earth rotates the fastest at the equator and slowest at the arctic circle and antarctic circle.

Answer 13

Sure.

Answer 14

since this isnt exactly what youre familiar with, how do you get this information ?

Answer 15

Online search of course.
I know some of those though.
So, half and half.

Answer 16

You know trig?
cos(0)=1

Answer 17

i dont know anything about trig, i can barely do algebra. :/

Answer 18

Oh ok.
So the higher the angle the slower the rotational speed.

Answer 19

ok

Answer 20

have you gone too deep into research to stop now?

Answer 21

i think i want to do this assignment on tuesday because its getting late again and i am beyond tired :/

Answer 22

i cant tomorrow because ill be studying for a math test on wednesday

Answer 23

but i can be back on tuesday unless you have gone too deep into the question already i will stay

Answer 24

I know that higher angle have slower rotational speed, but B&D and E&C have the same angle. Trying to figure this out.
Maybe Southern and Northern Hemisphere have different rotational speed.

Answer 25

I got b.
The long day period are the one in the light region (daytime period)

Answer 26

Lets skip to B for now.

Answer 27

ok

Answer 28

Which do you think has the longest daytime period?

Answer 29

which what ? side?

Answer 30

if so
east

Answer 31

A,B,C,D or E

Answer 32

E

Answer 33

E A B C D? is that correct?

Answer 34

wait no

Answer 35

C has to be last correct?

Answer 36

E should be first, C should be last

Answer 37

From longest daytime period to shortest right?

Answer 38

according to my assignment i believe so

Answer 39

Nope, that is not correct.
Try again carefully.

Answer 40

Hint:It does not matter what position they are from left to right.
It all matters from bottom to top

Answer 41

E has the longest daytime period

Answer 42

D is next

Answer 43

A B and then C after?

Answer 44

E has the shortest daytime period so it is the opposite.

Answer 45

oh because the picture you gave me is flipped.

Answer 46

Notice in my attachment file that the lighter part in the north has the longest daytime period because the sun never sets.

Answer 47

So is it C A B D E then ?

Answer 48

It is not flipped.
It is just different than yours.
You can just need to recognize pattern because it is not exactly the same.

Answer 49

Yes.

Answer 50

It is obvious that the darker side represents night and the lighter side represents dark.

Answer 51

If you look at the attachment file, it says the sun never rises when the line only touches the dark side.
The sun never sets when it only touches the light side.
It has equal days and nights when the lines touches both the dark and light side at equal lengths.
It has more days than nights when the lines touches the days more than night.

Answer 52

So you know the ranking order for C now, right?

Answer 53

C would be the longest time correcT?

Answer 54

i am not able to think clearly atm

Answer 55

So is it C A B D E then?

Yes

Answer 56

yeeeeeeeeeey

Answer 57

look man, lets continue this on tuesday ?

Answer 58

Well the answer to c is obvious remember?

Answer 59

Ok, we can.continue at Tuesday.

Answer 60

and jsut to verify

Answer 61

let me post a picture of what i have written so far for the rankings. and then we can call it a night and continue tuesday

Answer 62

Sure!

Answer 63

that correct?

Answer 64

No.
The one we were just discussing was for part B.
Hence, we were talking about daylight and nighttime -_-

Answer 65

A asks for rotational speed.
B asks for longest to shortest daytime period.

Answer 66

oh
lmao

Answer 67

you right...

Answer 68

like i said, not thinking clearly :p

Answer 69

will change C A B D E to part b ranking

Answer 70

we can attempt the rest tuesday!

Answer 71

Come here focused next time then.
Lol.

Answer 72

Remember the relationship between ranking B and C.
Then we can just do A at Tuesday.

Answer 73

am working on a prescription for aderall or anything to help me focus because ive been having major issues focusing lately with all the events happening in my life at the moment

Answer 74

by the 28th, i should have something to keep me nice and focused on things
