What is an imaginary line that follows the curve of the earth?
it is the ORBIT, I think...
Suppose you heated frozen alcohol instead of ice how would the heating curve for alcohol be similar to and different from the heating curve for water?
AnswerAlcohol freezes at -114. i would imagine that the heating curve would be similar to the differences in freezing curve..
Why do the global winds curve like they do?
Global winds are caused by unequal heating of the Earth's surface and they curve because... If the Earth did not rotate, Global Winds would not curve. They would be straight as a line. So because of EARTH'S ROTATION, global winds curve.
What is the curve for the earth science regents?
Earth science curve is the biggest curve in all regents! if u manage to get up to atleast a 60 that curve will be around mind 80's. ! seriously 85% of students pass due to the curve. so yeah! : ) hope i helped Regents Examination in Physical Setting/Earth Science - June 2009
What is curve cause of stream channel cause by erosion?
Are you talking about meanders? when overtime laterally erode the banks (undermine) due to the hydrolic fore of the water. Then then turn to ox-bow lakes due to deposition along the curve and erosion coming into the curve. (bypasses the curve; cuts straight through)

Explain about the effect of the time constant RC in envelope detector?
The circuit that generates signal having the shape like imaginary curve is called an envelope detector. The effect of the time constant RC in envelope detector is that the output follows the input curve and the circuit performs like a demodulator.
What call center software has the shortest learning curve?
The call center software that has the shortest learning curve is Five9, they have also processed over 4,093,014,146 calls since they first started their business, which was in 2001.
What is power curve?
A power curve is an important curve used in aviation. It is the curve of form and induced drag interacting with airspeed. This curve shows pilots that they must give additional thrust as speed decreases to maintain airspeed when airspeed is below a certain point.
Linear demand curve diagram?

The answer is 8km/s
Is a car that follows a gentle curve in the road an example of acceleration?
If the vehicle is gaining speed on that gentle curve, yes. Otherwise, no.
What are three type of non linear function?
Curve Parabola Hyperbola There are loads more if you go into imaginary numbers
What is the shortest distance between a straight line and a curve?
If you translate (move without rotation) a copy of the line towards the curve, the first point where the line touches the curve (the tangent to the curve with the slope of the original line) will be the point on the curve closest to the line. Draw a connecting line from this tangent point to the original line, intersecting that original line at right angles. Measure the connecting segment. It is the shortest distance. Vector analysis will give a mathematically strict solution, I do not have the ability to explain this in sufficient detail.
