I think the answer is B but the problem in this part is that the South American plate has moved over time. You see the difference?

This problem must be solved using a sketch. I attached an illustration of the problem.
You must trace the ray that reflects from the top off the table to your eyes. This how eyesight works, light rays reflects off the objects into your eyes.
Law of reflection tells us that light ray reflects off the surface at the same angle in which it falls on it( i attached another illustration of this).
Now we can write tangens equations:
tan(\theta)=\frac{h-0.8}{1}\\
tan(\theta)=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\
\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}
We solve for h:
\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\
2.8h-0.8\cdot 2.8=1.8-h\\
3.8h=1.8+2.24\\
h=\frac{4.04}{3.8}\\
h=1.06m

What is the answer to this question number 2?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

1⁺ ion

Explanation:

Metals in the first group on the periodic table will prefer to form 1⁺ ion. This is because the 1 valence electron in their orbital.

Most metals are electropositive and would prefer to lose electrons than to gain it.

Like all metals, the group 1 elements called the alkali metals would prefer to lose and electron.

On losing an electron the number of protons is then greater than the number of electrons. This leaves a net positive charge.

How many butter, which has a usable energy content of 6.0 Cal/g (= 6000 cal/g), would be equivalent to the change in gravitation
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

175.96 g

Explanation:

Potential energy required for the man to climb 7.07 km = m g h.

= 64 x 9.8 x 7070

= 4.434 x 10⁶ J

= 4.434 X 10⁶ / 4.2 cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ / 6000 g of butter

= 175.96 g of butter.
