Answer:

Yes, The original erasers were bread. Until the 1770's humanity's preferred way of erasing graphite marks relied on bread that had been de-crusted, moistened and balled up. The first pencil only came out in 1795.

Answer:

Until the 1770s, humanity's preferred way of erasing errant graphite marks relied on bread that had been de-crusted, moistened and balled up. While these erasers were cheap and plentiful, they had a distinct disadvantage: They were, you know, made of bread.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

<em>The wave will be travelling in the y-axis</em>

Explanation:

An e-m wave has a spatially varying electric field that is always associated with a magnetic field that changes over time and vice versa. The electric field and the magnetic field oscillates perpendicularly to each other, and together form a wave that travels in a perpendicular direction to the magnetic and the electric field in space. The movement of the e-m wave through space is usually away from the source where it is generated. So, if the electric field travels in the z-axis, and the magnetic field travels through along the x-axis, then the e-m wave generated will travel in the y-axis direction.

Leona [35]

Answer:

C) about 1/10 as great.

Explanation:

We use the relation between Impulse, I, and momentum, p:

I=\Delta p\\ F*t=m(v_{f}-v{o})\\ \\

F=m(v_{f}-v{o})/t=-mv{o}/t\\ \\     the final speed is zero

We can see that the average Force is inversely proportional to the time, so if the time is 10 times bigger, the average Force is 1/10 as great
