In the early 1900s Alfred Wegener noticed that some of earths continets looked like they might fit together like a jigsaw puzzle

he also observed that the continets that looked like they fit together had similar plants animals and rock formations from this evidence Wegener reasoned that earths continents were all once a part of one big supercontinent what type of scientific thinking did wegener employ to develop this theory theory

explain why astronauts around the earth either in spaceship, a space station, or on a spacewalk appear to be weightless but are
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Zero gravity

Explanation:

Astronauts around the earth either in spaceship, a space station or on a space walk appear to be weightless because of the zero gravity in such environment.

Weight is a function of the mass and acceleration due to gravity a body has.

   Weight  = mass  x  acceleration due to gravity

In a place where acceleration due to gravity is 0, the weight would be zero and a person would appear to be weightless.

A motorcyclist drives from A to B with a uniform speed of 30 km/h and returns back with a speed of 20km/h-¹ find the average spe
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Average speed = 24 km/h

Explanation:

  • Let the distance be x.

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Uniform speed A = 30 km/h

Uniform speed B = 20 km/h

To find the average speed;

Mathematically, the average speed of an object is given by the formula;

Average \; speed = \frac {total \; distance}{total \; time} ..... equation 1

Total time = TA + TB

T_{A} = \frac {x}{30}

T_{B} = \frac {x}{20}

Total \; time = \frac {x}{30} + \frac {x}{20}

Total \; time = \frac {5x}{60}

Total distance = x + x

Total distance = 2x

Substituting the values into equation 1;

Average \; speed = \frac {2x}{\frac {5x}{60}}

Average \; speed = \frac {2x*60}{5x}

Average \; speed = \frac {120}{5}

<em>Average speed = 24 km/h</em>

Is it possible to stand backwards on a flight of stairs?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

if your destination is on the top floor, but you are facing towards the bottom floor, you are facing the wrong way. It's all relative. Honestly, I hate this question, because then it turns into, is it possible to go backwards anywhere. Backwards and forwards, right and left, it's all relative to which way you are facing and where you want to go. If something is on the left and you turn 180 degrees, then that thing is on the right. If you are going forward towards your house and you turn around, you are now going backwards, relative to your house. But if your perspective is relative to that tree in the opposite direction of your house, you are now facing the right way. See, it's all relative to where you are going.

Using the conversion factor from eV (electron volts) to joules, determine which energy line for an electron dropping from one en
Tom [10]

Explanation:

Wavelength in an emission spectrum,  \lambda=435\ nm=435\times 10^{-9}\ m  

The energy of an electron is given by :

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

Where

h is the Planck's constant

c is the speed of light

For 435 nm, the energy of the electron will be :

E=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8\ m/s}{435\times 10^{-9}}

E=4.57\times 10^{-19}\ J

We know that 1\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J

So, E=\dfrac{4.57\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

So, E = 2.86 eV

The energy of the electron dropping from one energy level is 2.86 eV. We know that,

\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=E_{n_2}-E_{n_1}

From the given energy levels :

E_5-E_2=-0.544-(-3.403)

E_5-E_2=2.859\ eV

So, the transition must be from E₅ to E₂. Hence, this is the required solution.
