Answer:
1. a) Astronomers use the parallax method to measure the distance to nearby stars, but
we can’t use it to measure the distance to stars in other galaxies. Why not? Why isn’t the
parallax method useful for measuring the distances to stars in other galaxies?
They are so distant that the parallax is too small to be measured since parallax varies
inversely with distance.
b) Instead of the parallax method, we use the standard candle method to measure the
distance to stars in other galaxies. In particular, we use the standard candle method to
measure the distances to Cepheid variable stars in other galaxies. What is special about
Cepheid variable stars that makes them useful for this purpose?
We can figure out their luminosities from their periods of variation. Then if we measure
their fluxes we can calculate their distances.
2. a) From what were the protons and electrons in your body made, and roughly when
were they made?
They were made from energy (or gamma rays) very soon after the big bang (in the first
second). 400,000 years later they got together to make hydrogen atoms.
b) From what were the carbon atoms in your body made, and where were they made?
They were not made in the big bang. They were made much later inside of stars or in
supernovae. They were made by fusion from lighter atoms.
3. Make two sketches of the Milky Way Galaxy, one an edge-on view and one a face-on

which of the following best describes the kinetic theory model?
a. all particles in matter eventually stop moving
b. energy changes have no effect on the state of matter
c. when particles in matter gain or lose energy , they change state
d. no matter how much energy is present particles never move
Answer:
Answer c: "when particles in matter gain or lose energy , they change state"
Explanation:
As energy is provided to the molecules of the substance in question, they acquire more speed or vibration, increasing their separation in the substance, which can become then a liquid , or a gas. The reverse path also happens as the particles give away energy.
Answer:
c. when particles in matter gain or lose energy , they change state
we know that for example, if you add heat (energy) to ice it would melt (change state) or if you freeze water (change state) it would become ice.

Line A extends through the center of the circle.
I. What is line b in reference to the circle?
2. How large is the angle between lines A and B?
Answer:
If I understand correctly. Line B is parallel to the circle. Also, the angle is less than 90.
The size of the circle determines. The diameter should not be fixed either.'Circle' is characterized as "a two-dimensional geometric figure comprising of the set of all those points in a plane that are at equal distance from the center."
1). Line B would be considered as the 'tangent' in association with the given circle.
2). The angle lying among the lines A and B would be of 90° i.e. right angle.
Given that,
A circle with line A drawn through its center
Line B moves while touching the edge of the circle and intersects line A outside the circle.
Since 'Tangent' is described as a 'straight-line touching the curve at one point without crossing it,' thus, line B would be considered as the tangent of the circle as it touches the circle's curve once. The angle that is formed at the intersection of the line A and B at the curve of the circle would be a right angle because they are perpendicular to one another. Thus, the perpendicular lines A and B form an angle of 90°.Learn more about 'circle' here:

just want to double-check that you understand a practical consequence of the expansion of the universe. Light reaches us from a very distant galaxy. The time the light took to cross this distance and reach us is 10 billion years. The distance this light has crossed in this time is probably
Answer:
The distance of the light is 9.4608 x 10^25 m
Explanation:
Time taken by the light = 10 billion years = 10 x 10^9 years
speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s
speed of light in m/years is = (3 x 10^8)/(60 x 60 x 24 x 365) = 9.4608 x 10^15 m/year
distance = speed x time
therefore, the distance of this light = 10 x 10^9 x 9.461 x 10^15 = 9.4608 x 10^25 m
Answer:
more than 10 billion light years due to expansion of space

It is moving with an acceleration of 20 m/s². We need to find the force exerted by the ball.
Force is given by the product of mass and acceleration. So,
F = ma
[tex]F=70\ kg\times \ 20m/s^2\\\\F=1400\ N[/tex]
So, the force of 1400 N is exerted by a metal ball.
why do objects located further away from pivot have a greater moment?
Answer:
because us equal to the anticlockwise moment about that pivot.If the object are balanced:clockwise.
Explanation:
This is when an object placed on something narrow object that can act as a pivot too fir example a plank placed on a brick.Finally the edges or the curve
Answer:
Moment about a point= force × perpendicular distance
When an object is further from the pivot, the perpendicular distance of the object from the pivot increases. Since moment is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance, when the perpendicular distance increase, the moment increases too. Thus, objects located further away from the pivot have a greater moment.

You have a hot reservoir held at 30°C and a cold reservoir held at 0°C. If you move 400 J of heat from the hot reservoir to the cold reservoir, what is the total change in entropy?
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following :
Temperature (Th) of hot reservoir = 30°C (30 +273) = 303K
Temperature (Tc) of cold reservoir = 0°C (273K)
Quantity (Q) of heat transferred from hot reservoir = 400 J
Total change in entropy (ΔStotal) :
ΔStotal = ΔShot + ΔScold
ΔS = Q/T
Hot reservoir is losing 400J of heat ;
Q = - 400 J
ΔShot = Q/Th
ΔShot = - 400/303
ΔShot = - 1.32 J/K
ΔScold = Q/T
ΔScold = 400 / 273
ΔScold = 1.47 J/K
ΔStotal = ΔShot + ΔScold
ΔStotal = - 1.32 + 1.47
ΔS total = 0.15 J/K
Answer:
-400/303 = -1.32
400/273 = 1.47
-1.32 + 1.47 =

As a way of determining the inductance of a coil used in a research project, a student first connects the coil to a 5.62 V battery and measures a current of 0.698 A. The student then connects the coil to a 35.1 V(rms), 93.1 Hz generator and measures an rms current of 0.36 A. What is the inductance
Answer:
Its inductance L = 166 mH
Explanation:
Since a current, I = 0.698 A is obtained when a voltage , V = 5.62 V is applied, the resistance of the coil is gotten from V = IR
R = V/I = 5.62/0.698 = 8.052 Ω
Since we have a current of I' = 0.36 A (rms) when a voltage of V' = 35.1 V (rms) is applied, the impedance Z of the coil is gotten from
V₀' = I₀'Z where V₀ = maximum voltage = √2V' and I₀ = maximum current = √2I'
Z = V'/I' = √2 × 35.1 V/√2 × 0.36 V = 97.5 Ω
WE now find the reactance X of the coil from
Z² = X² + R²
X = √(Z² - R²)
= √(97.5² - 8.05²)
= √(9506.25 - 64.8025)
= √9441.4475
= 97.17 Ω
Now, the reactance X = 2πfL where f = frequency of generator = 93.1 Hz and L = inductance of coil.
L = X/2πf
= 97.17/2π(93.1 Hz)
= 97.17 Ω/584.965 rad/s
= 0.166 H
= 166 mH
Its inductance L = 166 mH

if a direction is somewhere between North and East it is measured in _____?
Answer:
degrees
Explanation:
If a direction is somewhere between north and east, it is measured in degrees.
This measurement will be possible thanks to the existence of geographical coordinates that are some 'imaginary lines' that help us find our location on the earth's surface. These lines are called latitude and longitude, both of which are measured in degrees.
It is like a sea battle game where you have to combine the rows and columns in order to identify where the targets are located. Geographic coordinates work the same way, you must combine the rows and columns of the planisphere to identify the locations of the planet. So the lines would be the latitudes and the columns the longitudes.
A group of Advanced Open Water Divers plans to make two dives. The first dive is on a reef in 90 feet of water for 20 minutes. The group then remains on the surface for 1 hour. The second dive is on a wreck in 60 feet of water, with a planned bottom time of 30 minutes. What will be the ending pressure group after the second dive
Answer:
The ending pressure is R.
Explanation:
This is Recreational scuba diving (R). According to standards, this diving has prescribed depth limit of 130 ft. This means that the limit must include a depth that is not greater than 130 ft while using only compressed air and not even requiring a decompression stop.
Now, from the question, we can see that that there was a prescribed limit of 60ft of water with a planned bottom time of 30 minutes.
Thus, the ending pressure is R.
If you look at faint stars, you can see them more easily on the edges of your vision than if you try to look directly at them. Why is this true?
Answer:
The retina comprises of rod and cone cells . The rod cells are responsible for black and white vision and require low light levels while the cone cells are responsible for color vision and require good/high light levels for better functioning.
When faint stars are looked at on the edges of the vision it allows more light from faint objects to strike the rod cells which then becomes more visible.
An AC generator consists of 6 turns of wire. Each turn has an area of 0.040 m2. The loop rotates in a uniform field (B = 0.20 T) at a constant frequency of 50 Hz. What is the maximum induced emf?
Answer:
The maximum induced emf is 15.08 V
Explanation:
Given;
number of turns of the generator, N = 6 turns
area of the loop, A = 0.04 m
magnetic field of the loop, B = 0.2 T
frequency of loop, f = 50 Hz
The maximum induced emf is given by;
E = NBAω
Where;
ω is the angular speed = 2πf
E = NBA(2πf)
E = 6 x 0.2 x 0.04 x (2 x 3.142 x 50)
E = 15.08 V
Therefore, the maximum induced emf is 15.08 V
do you think distance and time are relevant terms in describing motion?
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
because motion is relevant
Answer:
Motion is mathematically defined as displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and time. The motion of a body is recognized by adding a frame of reference to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body related to that frame with the change in time.

Wavelength (λ) of Soundwave in air = 0.12mm
Velocity of sound wave (v) = 340m/s
Calculate the frequency (f) :
v = fλ
Wavelength to metres
1000mm = 1 m
0.12mm = (0.12/1000)m
= 0.00012m
v = fλ
340 = F * 0.00012
f = 340 / 0.00012
f = 2833333.3 Hz
Wavelength of Soundwave in the patient:
Velocity of sound wave through body tissue = 1540m/s
Therefore,
Using v = fλ
λ = v / f
λ = 1540 / 2833333.3
λ = 0.0005435m
λ = (0.0005435 * 1000)mm
λ = 0.5435mm = 0.54mm
The distance between neighbouring, identical wave components, such as adjacent compressions, determines a sound's wavelength. The number of waves passing a spot in a given amount of time is known as the frequency, which is the same as the source's frequency.

A foot is 12 inches and a mile is 5280 ft, exactly. A centimeter is exactly 0.01m or mm. Sammy is 5 feet and 5.3 inches tall. What is Sammy's Height in inches?
The answer is 65.3 inches tall
Explanation:
To know the heigh of Sammy in inches it is necessary to convert the 5 feet to inches and add this number to 5.3 inches as the statement mentions "Sammy is 5 feet and 5.3 inches tall". Additionally, it is known each foot is equal to 12 inches ( 1 foot = 12 inches). According to this, the simplest method to convert feet to inches is to multiply the feet given by 12. The process is shown below:
1 foot = 12 inches
feet to inches = number of feet x 12
5 feet x 12 = 60 inches
This means 5 feet is equal to 60 inches. Now, 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches (total height of Sammy in inches)
