True or false Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion?
False. Consider a car moving on the road, along the earth's surface. That is considered to be Vx or Horizontal motion or velocity. If the car were to move perpendicular to the earth's surface that would be Vy or Vertical motion and velocity.
What is velocity parallel to Earth's surface?
That is the definition of horizontal motion.Horizontal motionhorizontal
How does weathering and erosion shape earths surface?
Weathering and erosion shape earths surface by changing earths surface by having extreme forces that change earth.
What is the process that breaks up rock on earths surface?
weathering breaks rocks on earths surface
Do cirrus clouds form near or far from earths surface?
They form far above the earths surface.

False. Consider a car moving on the road, along the earth's surface. That is considered to be Vx or Horizontal motion or velocity. If the car were to move perpendicular to the earth's surface that would be Vy or Vertical motion and velocity.
What is verlocity parallel to the earht's surface called?
Velocity (not verlocity) parallel to the earth's (not earht's) surface is called the horizontal component of the velocity.
The tangential velocity of an Earth satellite is its velocity?
parallel to the surface of the Earth
The longest parallel on the earths surface is the?
Equator is the longest parallel on the Earth's surface. It divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere and is located at 0 degrees latitude.
What velocity has a parallel to Earth's surface?
horizontal.
What is a line parallel to the earths surface?
That would be latitude or longitude.
What is velocity parallel to Earth's surface?
That is the definition of horizontal motion.Horizontal motionhorizontal
Explain the circumstances when the acceleration and the velocity of car are parallel?
when velocity of a car is increasing then velocity and acceleration are parallel to each other.
When is velocity parallel to acceleration?
Explain circumstances, in which the velocity acceleration of a body is parallel?
Is there any point along the path of projectile where velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other?
Using the term "trajectory" implies that the acceleration you are concerned about is due to gravity. Gravity will always be perpendicular to the surface. Unless the trajectory begins perpendicular to the surface, it will never change to become perpendicular and the velocity will never be in a direction parallel to the acceleration. If it starts perpendicular to the surface it will start and remain perpendicular. Of course if you have another force acting on the object - such as wind - the component of the velocity vector parallel to the ground could be reduced to zero and at that point the only remaining component of the velocity vector would be that perpendicular to the ground and parallel to the acceleration. Likewise if the object is being propelled by an engine or rocket, the trajectory could be parallel to the force any time the acceleration vector became parallel to the velocity vector.
What percent of the earths surface is the US?
100
How much of earths oceans cover earths surface?
70% or 80% of water covers the earths surface
