Answer:

8 km

Explanation:

Scale is defined as the ratio between the distance on a 2D map and the distance on the actual ground surface. It is very widely used in the maps in order to identify the size of the area, as well as the distance between any two places.

In the given question, it says that 3 centimeters in the map represents 4 kilometers in the actual ground.

So, it can be concluded that 6 centimeters in the map corresponds to 8 kilometers in the actual ground.

The towns are 8 kilometers apart because as you see 6 centimeters equal 2 of the 3 centimeters which means that you add four twice or times it by 2 to get 8

If Earth's atmosphere did not contain greenhouse gasses and was only composed of Nitrogen and Oxygen, by how much would Earth's
Flauer [41]

Answer: 1- Option (D)

              2- Option (A)

Explanation:

The green house gases plays a significant role in the earth's global temperature. In absence of green house gas, the earth would have been very much cold and life would would be difficult to exist. The average global temperature would have been about -15°C to 25°C. So the most favorable answer given here is that the<u> earth's temperature would have decrease by about 60°C</u>.

<u>Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is not the most abundant green house gas</u>. It is the second most abundant. The present composition of CO₂ in the atmosphere is about 0.04% by volume. A small increase in the CO₂ level, can lead to a global rise in the temperature. Hence, <u>the above statement is false.</u>

Debora [2.8K]
Hello! Rome, Italy being located along those lines is an example of absolute location. It’s absolute location, because it shows the exact points of where the city is and the points don’t change.

Two stars, Star 1 and Star 2, are at almost equal distances from Earth. The table below shows the masses of the two stars.
Harman [31]
Which of these statements is most likely correct about the stars?


Star 2 attracts Star 1 with a greater gravitational force than Star 1 attracts Star 2.

No, because Third Newton Law states that both forces are equal in magnitude.

Earth exerts almost equal gravitation force on both the stars.

No, because the Universal Gravitational Law, estblished by Newton, states the atraction force to two masses is proportional to the product of the masses.

Star 1 attracts Star 2 with a greater gravitational force than Star 2 attracts Star 1.

No (same reason for the first statement)

Earth exerts greater gravitation force on Star 2 than on Star 1.

Right. This is the correct statement. Given the mass of Star 2 is greater than the mass of Star 1, by the Universal Gravitational Law, the earth exerts greater gravitational attraction on Star 2.
