If a star's azimuth is 90 degrees and its altitude is 45 degrees where is this star in the sky?
If a star's azimuth is 90 degrees, it is located directly east on the horizon. An altitude of 45 degrees means that the star is positioned halfway up in the sky, forming a right angle with the horizon. Therefore, this star would be visible in the eastern sky at an angle that is halfway between the horizon and the zenith.
What is the vertical angle at solar noon?
33 degrees perpendicular to the horizon
Why is it still considered twilight when the sun is already 15 degrees below the horizon?
There is still light reflecting off the earth's atmosphere after sunset. Officially, twilight ends at 18 degrees below horizon, when it is completely dark, although at 15 degrees it is dark enough!
How many degrees has the sun moved below the horizon after 22 minutes?
The Sun advances 15 degrees an hour; that is, 15 degrees every 60 minutes. You can base your calculations on that. If you live near the equator, after sunset the Sun will move directly downwards; if you live at higher latitudes, for example in Europe, the Sun moves at an angle, so while it will still move (for example) 15 degrees in an hour, it will not be 15 degrees below the horizon.
How long is a 5 foot person's shadow in a 40 degrees angle?
If the sun is 40 degrees above the horizon, a 5-ft person casts a shadow 5ft 11.5in long (rounded)
Which formation is formed by facing the squad and giving the command while simultaneously giving hand and arm signals by extending the right arm 45 degrees above the horizon and the left arm 45 degree?
Squad echelon right
Which formation is formed by facing the squad and giving the command giving the hand and arm signals by extending the right arm 45 degrees above the horizon and the left arm 45 degrees?
Squad echelon right
Which formation is formed by facing the squad and giving the command while simultaneously giving hand and arm signals by extending the right arm 45 degress above the horizon and the left arm 45 degre?
Squad echelon right or left formation.
What is horizon as an adverb?
"Horizon" as an adverb typically means something is extending indefinitely or continually in a specified direction. For example, "the opportunities stretched horizonally before him."
What is the altitude of the horizon in degrees?
The altitude of the horizon is 0 degrees. This is because the horizon is considered to be at eye level, so it is equivalent to the observer's horizontal line of sight.
Altitude is defined as the distance in degrees of a star below the horizon?
Actually, altitude is the height of an object above a specific reference point, usually the observer's horizon. It is measured in degrees, with 0 degrees being right on the horizon and 90 degrees directly overhead.
What is the altitude of polaris if you are at an angle of 66.5 degrees from the Horizon?
66.5 degrees
What latitude on earth is a celestial pole 45 above the horizon'?
The celestial pole that is 45 degrees above the horizon is located at a latitude of 45 degrees. This means that an observer at this location would see the celestial pole positioned halfway between the horizon and the zenith.
Is 55 degrees above the horizon very low in the sky - ie very close to the horizon?
If the horizon is on a level line of sight, a vertical line directly above the observer forms an angle of 90 degrees. 55 degrees would be quite high, being above 45 degrees.
What is the angle between the northern horizon and the North star Polaris if your latitude is 75 degrees north?
The angle between the northern horizon and the North star Polaris at a latitude of 75 degrees north is 15 degrees. Polaris is positioned 90 degrees above the northern horizon at the North Pole (90 - 75 = 15 degrees).
Where in the sky would a star with an azimuth of 180 degrees and an altitude of 20 degrees be found?
A star with an azimuth of 180 degrees would be due south, and an altitude of 20 degrees would place it 20 degrees above the horizon. So, the star would be in the southern part of the sky, 20 degrees above the horizon.
Is the sun considered to be low in the sky when it is 56 degrees above the horizon?
No, 56 degrees above the horizon isn't "low". "Low in the sky" is less than 20 degrees elevation or so.
