The complete question is

What modifications did kepler make to copernicus’s model? check all that apply. planetary orbits are elliptical. planets closer to the sun move faster. planets spin in an epicycle while orbiting earth. venus has phases due to its orbiting of the sun. earth’s rotation causes the rising and setting of the sun.

Answer:

Planetary orbits are elliptical.

Planets closer to the Sun move faster.

Explanation:

The first option is based on the first law that states that the planets orbit the sun in ellipses, with the sun at one focus of the ellipse.

The second option is based on the third law that states that the square of the time of revolution about the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the mean radius of orbit of the planet.

A mechanical wave starts when matter is disturbed by a source of ______.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

MATERIAL MEDIUM

Explanation:

Wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. The two forms of wave are the mechanical wave and the electromagnetic waves.

Mechanical wave is a wave with requires MATERIAL MEDIUM for its propagation. This means that before wave can be propagated at times, material medium is needed e.g a ripple tank. A ripple tank is a mechanical device that generates waves using an instrument called stroboscope attached to it. This kind of wave requires an external source before it can propagate compared to electromagnetic waves that does not require material medium for its propagation.

If the intensity level by 15 identical engines in a garage is 100 dB, what is the intensity level generated by each one of these

insens350 [35]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Sound Intensity.

By definition the intensity is given by the equation

$\beta = 10Log(\frac{I}{I_0})$

Where,

I = Intensity of Sound

$I_0$ = Intensity of Reference

At this case we have that 15 engines produces 15 times the reference intensity, that is

$I= 15I_0$

And the total mutual intensity is 100 dB, so we should

$\beta = 100-10*log(\frac{15I_0}{I_0})$

$\beta = 100-10*log(15)$

$\beta = 100-11.76$

$\beta = 88.23dB$

Therefore each one of these engines produce D. 88dB.

Which of the following best describes what we mean by the universe? (A) all the galaxies in all the superclusters(B) the sum tot

EastWind [94]

Answer:

(B) the sum total of all matter and energy

Explanation:

Universe comprises of all the matter and energy that exists in space. It contains billions of stars, planets and interstellar matter that is clouds of dust and gas. There is large amount of the empty space in between.

Universe contains stars as many as grains of sand on all beaches on the Earth. These stars are grouped into galaxies. Milky Way is one of the galaxies. Galaxies can be grouped into clusters and super-clusters.

Suppose your hair grows at the rate of 1/26 inches per day. Find the rate at which it rows in nanometers per second. Because the

notka56 [123]

Answer:

11.306 nm/s

113.06 atomic layers/sec

Explanation:

Hello!

First we need to know how much an inch equals in nanometers and a day in seconds:

Since 1inch = 2.54cm and 1cm=10^7nm

1 inch = 2.54 * 10^7 nm

Also 1day = 24hours = 24*60minutes = 24*60*60seconds

1 day = 86.4 * 10^3 s

Therefore the rate at which the hair grows in nanometers per seconds is:

1/26 in/day = (1/26) * (2.54*10^7)/(86.4*10^3) = 11.306 nm/s

Now, if 1 atomic layer = 0.1 nm this means that 1 nm = 10 atomic layers.

Therefore:

The rate in atomic layers is

11.306 nm/s = 11.306 (10 atomic layers)/s = 113.06 atomic layers/sec
