Why would a elderly person not be able to go to er by ambulance?

there shouldn't be any reason that an elderly person cannot go by ambulance. with a dnr order care providers cannot ressucitate him but they cant reffuse care of him. ambulances are also alot bumpier than a normal car so its not always best for someone to ride in an ambulance expecially if they have broken bones. but they cannot refuse to take them in the ambulance if that is what they want to be taken by.

Is Jupiter in an orbital resonance with another body?

An orbital resonance between two celestial bodies happens when two bodies exert a regular gravitational influence on one another. Some scenarios say that a past resonance between Jupiter and Saturn may have cause Uranus and Neptune to switch places.

How long does it take light to reach Saturn from the sun?

Well.... You see, It takes 8 Minutes for the Light from the sun to get to Earth.. the sun is 93,000,000 Miles away from us.. so what I will do is check how far away Saturn is from the sun and calculate And estimate about how long it takes...................................................................................................

It takes Approximately an Hour and ten minutes... Not as much as you think it would take And It may be more or less remember this is an estimate But its really close...

Hope this Helps

Why aren't minerals the same in all U.S. coins?

I assume you mean metals rather than minerals. When coins were first struck in various countries, the rule was generally that a coin had to contain enough metal to be worth the value indicated by its denomination, minus a slight amount for the government (called "seigniorage", effectively the government's profit on making the coin). The principle was that coins would have intrinsic value so everyone would be guaranteed that a particular coin was worth, and would buy, a specific amount.

In order to keep coins' sizes practical, small denominations were made of cheap metals such as copper and nickel, more valuable ones used silver, and the top end were made of gold. (It also meant that some smaller coins were more valuable than larger ones, because they used different metals.)

The principle of metal values worked for centuries, but as society developed and economies became more complicated, it was harder and harder for governments to control coins' values vs. their metal content. In the U.S. for ex., copper cents used to be the size of half-dollars, but by 1857 the price of copper had increased to the point where the old cents were replaced with coins about the size of modern cents. Later, as more gold and silver were discovered their relative prices fluctuated and coinage was adjusted again and again.

By 1933 all gold coins were withdrawn. Silver was kept, but in the 1960s its price shot up too. To preserve some order in coinage, silver was replaced with cupro-nickel, but there was an added glitch due to technology: new coins had to be compatible with old ones in vending machines, coin sorters, and so on. The new coins kept the same sizes and roughly the same weights. That's why dimes are still smaller than nickels or pennies, even though they're worth more.

What are astroids?

Many asteroids are in a loose distribution in orbit round the sun, (called the asteroid belt) some of them are in perturbed orbits due to them sometimes getting too close, some extremely so. Occasionally these,(sometimes not much more than odd bits of dust) intercept the earth's orbit just as the earth is passing by and fall to earth as "shooting stars". But if a really big one happened to get caught by the earth the result could be wide-scale destruction, and that would be called a rogue asteroid.

Does Jupiter have a solid surface?

Not really. There is a small solid core, but it's nothing like a planetary surface as we usually think of them. It is under an enormous pressure caused by the mass of gas that makes up the bulk of the planet. We could never go there bodily, and we don't have nearly the technology or engineering to develop a useful probe that could. We don't call it a gas giant for nothing. no.

Which is the brightest planet?

None of the planets in the Solar system radiate their own light, so they are all as bright (luminous) as each other, which is, not at all.

Any light we see from planets is reflected light that came from the Sun (as opposed to stars who generate their own light).

the planet with the greatest apparent magnitude (that is, how bright the body appears to an observer on the earth looking up at the sky) is Venus.

How long does it take from Jupiter to earth?

I can't tell if you want to know

"How long does it take to get data from Earth to Jupiter?"

How long would it take a jet airplane to travel around the earth?

The earliest time to get around the world is 80 days

_________________________________________________________

Different jets would have different speeds, and there would have to be layovers for refeuling. I estimate that an average jetliner could do it in two to four weeks, and a Concorde could do it in less than a week. An SR-71 could do it faster than that, with aerial refeuling from a KC-135 tanker. Even still there are layovers, as the SR-71 must slow down to refuel from the subsonic KC-135.

Also, how far north or south from the Equator are you? The closer you are to the poles, the shorter the distance, and the less traveling time around the world. Only by circling the earth at its widest are you truly going aound the world.

In what ways do young people become more realistic as they grow into adulthood?

Young people become more realistic as they grow into adulthood. They realize that they will likely not be millionaires, they realize that they have to work to provide for themselves, and they realize that life is not necessarily as they imagined when they were children.

What can you observe about Jupiter?

JUPITER - is the largest planet in the solar system and the best to observe; you can see the cloud belts which are blown by huge winds caused by the very fast 10 hour rotation of the planet. Jupiter also has the famous Great Red Spot, a storm that has raged for over 300 years. It is so big you could fit two Earths inside it. Diameter: 142,800 kilometres Distance from the Sun: 778.3 million kilometres Orbits the Sun in (one Earth year): 11.86 years Rotates in (one day): 9 hours 50 minutes 30 seconds Rank: The Big One! Looks: Gassy OBSERVING JUPITER: You'll need a telescope to see details in the atmosphere including the Great Red Spot, but simple binoculars will show up to 4 tiny dots that are the main Jovian moons. These were seen by Galileo in 1610, and so are known as the Galilean satellites. In order of distance, starting with the closest, they are Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. As these moons orbit Jupiter quite fast you can watch them change position over the course of just a few hours.

What are places to see in Chile?

Some popular places to see in Chile include the Atacama Desert, Torres del Paine National Park, Easter Island, the port city of Valparaíso, and the vineyards of the Colchagua Valley. Each of these destinations offers unique landscapes and cultural experiences worth exploring.

What is Jupiters climate like?

Jupiter does not have a solid surface and its atmosphere mainly consists of hydrogen and helium. The planet experiences extreme temperatures and turbulent weather conditions, including high-speed winds and massive storms like the Great Red Spot. Overall, Jupiter's climate is very different from Earth's due to its composition and lack of a solid surface.

How much sunlight does earth get from the sun?

The solar flux is 1350 watts per square metre, and the Earth intercepts a

circular area of pi x r2 square metres with the radius r in metres. The radius

is 6,378,000 metres therefore the total power intercepted is 1.7 x 1017 watts,

which is something like 25 Megawatts for every man, woman and child on Earth.

What is Galilean heresy?

Galileo challenged the Church's authority on scientific matters. The Church at the time sanctioned Aristotle as the authority on scientific matters. Galileo was able to prove some of Aristotle's ideas as erroneous. He was persecuted for being a heretic.

What got Galileo into trouble was the acceptance not just of Aristotelian ideas but the cosmology of Ptolemy which was an earth-centered system. The scientists who followed this system convinced the Roman Catholic theologians of the time that this was taught in the Bible. They thus believed that to question such a system amounted to questioning the Bible, whereas it was actually their system which was in error and not the Bible.

The relevant passages use what is termed the 'language of appearance' in referring to the the sun rising and setting just as we do. The passage which refers to the earth not being moved has no reference to the earth not moving through space but to its firmness and solidity as a planet - it is not about to fall apart or explode.

Literally hundreds of books have been written about this controversy between the Roman Catholic church of the time and Galileo. A number of these seek to demonstrate that this was a conflict between science and the Bible. This is clearly not the case. It was a conflict between two systems of cosmology. Galileo's was always going to 'win' since it is based on fact, just as the Bible is.

The lesson in history for Christians is not to wed one's interpretation of the Bible to a particular scientific world-view which may prove to be false. The Bible being God's eternal truth needs to be rightly understood in its context and taken as it stands. Some would see the reading of the Bible in the sense it was intended as the new 'Galilean heresy' since it conflicts with the prevalent interpretation of the Bible according to evolutionary long-age beliefs.

What is Jupiter's orbital period?

Period of Jupiter = Tj

Period of earth = Te = 1 year

and its given

(Tj/Te)2 = (5.2)3

(Tj/1)2 = 140.6

Tj = Sqrt(140.6) = 11.85 years ~ 12years

Jupiter's year is approximately 12 Earth years. 1 year on Jupiter is 12 earth years. If you were 48 on earth, you would be 4 years old on Jupiter.

How far away is Pluto from the Sun in Kilometers?

Pluto's orbit is highly 'eccentric' compared to the orbits of the other planets, meaning that
the sun is quite off-center, and Pluto's distance from it varies over a wide range during the
course of its complete orbit.

Averaged over a complete orbit, Pluto's distance from the sun is given as 5.91 billion kilometers.

Why is there only one planet in each orbit around the sun?

Such a configuration would not be stable. All the planets are slightly perturbed by the other planets and so their orbits change slightly over time. So even if two planets orbited exactly opposite one another they would end up with slightly different orbits. Eventually the two planets would come close enough to interact one another through gravity, which would most likely result in a collision.

How many people would it take to circle the earth if standing hand in hand?

The exact number is not possible to derive without knowing the average spacing of the hand holders.
