The season of the United States when it is summer in Australia
Answer to Problem 1QQ
Therefore the answer is Option (a)
Explanation of Solution
In the US, it will be winter whereas, in Australia, it will be summer. The rays of the sun fall directly on the Southern Hemisphere when the South Pole is slanted towards the sun and this results in the warmer longer days in the Southern Hemisphere. As the Northern Hemisphere away from, it will experience winter. Thus, When Australia faces the summer season it is winter in the United States.
Therefore the answer is Option (a)
It is not summer or spring in the United States but it is winterbecause the Northern Hemisphere is slotted awayfrom the sun. Therefore, option (b) and option ( c) will be incorrect.

- Doctor Strange’s cloak allows him to levitate, and glide forward. Dr. Strange’s cloak does this by applying a F at an angle of 70.0˚, A) What force must the cloak be exerting to keep a Dr. Strange at a set height, neither lowering nor rising? Dr. Strange has a weight of 147 lbs. (2.20 lb = 1 kg). B) When the force found in part A is applied, what is Dr. Strange’s acceleration?arrow_forwardplease solve and answer the question correctly.
