Washington, D.C., is located at about 750 W longitude and 380 N latitude. San Francisco is near 1270 W longitude and 380 N latitude. Estimate how many minutes later the Sun rises in San Francisco than inWashington, D. C. How far apart would you estimate these cities to be? Assume that the earth’s radius is 6400 km. One day has 1440 minutes and of course the earth rotates 360 degrees around its axis in one day

Which statement about a rotating black hole is correct? O a. The black hole develops an ergosphere, also known as the ring of fire. O b. Inside the ergosphere, it is possible to use some of the black hole's rotational kinetic energy as an energy source. O c. The black hole's ergosphere is a location where photons can have stable orbits around the black hole. O d. The black hole begins to emit Hawking radiation when it begins to rotate. O e. The ergosphere is another name for the inner event horizon.
