When venus is 45,000,000 kilometers from earth, it has an angular size of 55 arc seconds. from this, what is the diameter of venus, in kilometers?

11999.14 km

Explanation:

Given that the angular size of the Venus with radius, 45,000,000 kilometers is 55 arc seconds.

Also,

1 arc seconds = 1 / 3600 degrees

1 degree = π /180 radians

So,

1 arc seconds = π / (3600 × π) radians

So,

55 arc seconds = 55 × π / (3600 × 180) radians

Also,

Arc length is:

s = r * theta

s = 45000000 * ( 55 × π / (3600 × 180) )

s = 11999.14 km

since there isn't any suggested answers i will give you the reason and hopefully you can figure it

south africa, or rather all of africa, has not been in the location in which it is nowadays throughout the geological past. after the super-continent pangaea started to break apart, gondwanaland, in which was africa, moved further south, and parts of it came to be very close to the south pole. because the climate in this part of the world is very cold due to the very dispersed sun rays in there, what is now south africa, started to freeze, and the conditions were right for the formation of glaciers. the glaciers existed up until the period when gondwanaland started to break apart and what is now africa started to move towards north, sp it warmed up and the glaciers melted.
