The severity of the seasons on Earth is given not by the distance Earth-Sun but by the tilt of the Earth axis. This happens because that the sun rays are oblique in winter and perpendicular in summer (thus the same quantity of sun rays heats a bigger surface in winter - oblique rays).
The present tild of the Earth axis is 23.5 degrees (from the vertical). If the axis were tilt at 157 degree this would be equivalent to 180-157 =23 degree. Thus the severity of the seasons would be approximately the same but the seasons would be reversed (for example instead of winter we would have summer, instead of summer we would have winter).
Answer:
False
Explanation:
According to USA today "Though nearly 60% of the 18 to 21 year olds surveyed said they have a job, and 70% of the 22 to 26 year olds said the same, many seem to rely on mom and dad to fund non-essential expenses. Nearly 75% of the 18 to 21 year olds and more than 40% of 22 to 26 year olds said their parents pay their monthly cell phone bill. Just 54% of 22 to 26 year olds own or lease their own car; and 43% of 22 to 26 year olds are living at home with their parents."
True Requires the development of theories that can be tested by systematic research.
Answer:
B. The elastic portion of a straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve corresponds to the segment above the midpoint.
Explanation:
Elasticity measures the sensitivity of one variable to another. Specifically it is a figure that indicates the percentage variation that a variable will experience in response to a variation of another one percent.
The elasticity of demand measures the reaction of demand when one of the factors that affects it varies.
<u>Elasticity - Price of demand.</u>
easure the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to price variations. It indicates the percentage variation that the quantity demanded of a good will experience if its price rises by 1 percent.
<u>
Elastic Demand
</u>
The demand quantity is relatively sensitive to price variations, so the total expenditure on the product decreases when the price rises, the price elasticity takes value greater than -∞ but less than -1
