Answer:

the Earth-Sun distance.

Explanation:

To measure parallax the base line distance that we need to know is the Earth-Sun distance. This distance is called 1 astronomical unit. This distance is 1.496×10^8 Km. So, this base line distance is necessary for the second link parallax.

If an electric wire is allowed to produce a magnetic field no larger than that of the Earth (0.50 x 10-4 T) at a distance of 15
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

I = 37.5\ A

Explanation:

Given,

Magnetic field,B = 0.5 x 10⁻⁴ T

distance,r= 15 cm = 0.15 m

Current = ?

Using Ampere's law of magnetic field

B = \dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r}

I= \dfrac{B (2\pi r)}{\mu_0}

I= \dfrac{0.5\times 10^{-4}\times (2\pi \times 0.15)}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}

I = 37.5\ A

Current in the wire is equal to I = 37.5\ A

Explain how an object can have force acting on it but not be acceleration?
VladimirAG [237]

That's what happens if there is more than one force acting on the
object, and the forces are balanced, that is, they all "cancel out".

Think of the rope in a Tug-'o-War.  It has 50 musclebound football guys
all pulling the rope to the west, and 150 strong cheerleaders all pulling
the rope to the east.  The total force to the west is exactly equal to the
total force to the east, and the rope doesn't move at all.  The forces on it
are balanced, and the effect on its motion is the same as if there were  
no force on it at all.

Which one of the following is radical?<br>a.NH4+<br>b.CUSO4<br>c.CH4<br>d.NH3​
klio [65]

Answer:

The unit that is a radical among the options is;

a. NH₄⁺

Explanation:

A radical is an atom, group of atoms molecule or ion that contains an electron that is unpaired. The presence of the unpaired electrons make radical very reactive as such most radicals enter into reactions with other species or with themselves to form new compounds making them not last long.

Radicals are also known as free radicals. Examples of radicals includes; Ammonium ion, NH₄⁺

Nitrate ion NO₃⁻ (From a salt)

Hydroxide ion OH⁻ (From a base)

Sulphate ion SO₄²⁺ (From an acid)

All of which are formed in aqueous solution of acids, salts and bases.
