In some states, the police can give the victim (or person believed to be the victim) an Emergency Protection Order (EPO). An EPO is a short-term protection order typically given to a victim by the police or magistrate when his or her abuser is arrested for domestic violence. The EPO s generally for limited period, such as three or seven days. This permits the victim time with an EPO in place to request a longer-term protection order.
Since the earth's axis is tilted 23 Â½ degrees, then on this particular day, the sun's rays are striking the earth directly at a latitude approximately 23 Â½ degrees north of the equator (that is, the sun's rays are coming in at an angle of 90 degrees here; this is the subsolar point).
The first step in measuring the distance between the Earth and the Sun is to measure the distance between Earth and another planet in terms of the distance between Earth and the Sun. So, let us assume that the distance between Earth and the Sun is a.Now, let us consider the orbit of Venus.To first approximation, the orbits of Earth and Venus are perfect circles around the Sun. Take a look at the diagram below (not to scale).nyway, the relevant numbers are: Earth-Sun distance, d = roughly 150 million km (defined as 1 Astronomical Unit). Radius of the Sun, R sun = roughly 700,000 km. Orbital speed of Earth, v = roughly 30 km/s. References: 1  Great Moments in the History of Solar Physics 1.
