What is the cause of a leap year please i need help for a science test?
Since It takes 365 days and 6 hours to make one rotation around the sun. They have a Leap Year every four years
How often did Bristol Palin need to pump her lactating breasts?
Every four to six hours.
Is a day always 24 hours?
Nearly always. However, in the same way that roughly every four years there is an additional day in a leap year, there is the need for "leap" seconds from time to time. The last leap second was added on 31 December 2008 so that day was 24 hours: 00 minutes :01 seconds long. In addition, due to tidal friction, the earths rate of rotation is slowing, which means days are growing longer over time.
How many hours in 74 years?
To calculate the answer: There are 365 days in a year, and 24 hours in a day. So you would multiply 365 x 24 which = 8760 hours in one year. So to calculate how many hours are in 74 years, you then multiply the number of hours in one year (8760) by 74, which is 648,240 hours. But if you take into account that leap year comes every four years, which means an extra day (and an extra 24 hours), you need to select a starting date for when the 74 year time period starts, then determine which of those years are leap year and add an extra 24 hours for each leap year, then calculate from there.
Why do you need to use leap year?
Every four years, one extra day is added into February. This is because of space. The earth takes 365 and a quarter days to make one full spin of the Sun. This is why there is an extra day every four years.
Why does a leap years occurevery four years?
Because the time that the earth takes to orbit around the sun is (approx) 365 AND A QUARTER days. This means that every four years, we need to catch up by one day.
How long does it take for the earth to obit the sun not get to but ORBIT?
Earth takes 365 days 6 hours seven seconds to circle the sun. This length of time is called, a sidereal year. This gives rise for the need of leap year, which adds an additional day to the calendar every four years.
What year are leap year?
A leap year is needed because it actually takes the Earth 3651/4 days to orbit the Sun. Thus every 4 years you need to add in an extra day to a year or the calendar will slowly shift. Though a year is 365 days, it actually takes the earth 365 and a quarter days to revolve around the sun. To account for this extra time, every four years an extra day is added to the year to cover the four quarter days of the past four years. This extra day is February 29th.
What is normal urination frequency for puppies?
The Jack Russel puppies that our dog had are now 2 months old and they need to pee every four hours.
How many seconds are in 34 years?
Just do the multiplications. 60 seconds per minute, times 60 minutes per hour, times 24 hours per day, times 365.25 days per year, times 34 years. If you need to be absolutely accurate, you need to specify the years, and whether or not they are leap years. For two of the four possible sequences of leap- and non leap years covering a stretch of 34 years, there are 9 leap years and 25 non leap years. For the other two possible sequences there are 8 leap years and 26 non leap years. You would still need to specify the exact years, because according to the full rules for assigning intercalary days to a year, now and then the usual leap year arrangement is interrupted.
How long it take the earth to orbit the sun one time?
Roughly 365.25 days; however, according to NASA, earth takes 365 days 6 hours 9 minutes 9.54 seconds to circle the sun. This length of time is called a sidereal year. This gives rise for the need of leap year, which adds an additional day to the calendar every four years.
How many days equals 36 years?
Well, there are 365 days in a year, so:36 x 365=13,140 days.However, you also need to take leap years into account, which occur every four years. So:36/4= 9 leap days.Therefore, the total number of days in 36 years would be:13,140 + 9= 13,149 days.
