Answer;

C. never become laws; based on strong scientific support; may change based on evidence.

Explanation;

-A scientific theory is a generally accepted, thoroughly tested and confirmed explanation for a set of observations or phenomena. Scientific theory is the foundation of scientific knowledge.

-In addition, in many scientific disciplines (less so in biology) there are scientific laws, often expressed in mathematical formulas, which describe how elements of nature will behave under certain specific conditions.

Quando ocorre um eclipse total da lua?
MissTica
Um eclipse solar ocorre quando a lua fica entre a Terra e o sol, e a lua projeta uma sombra sobre a Terra. Um eclipse solar só pode ocorrer na fase da lua nova, quando a lua passa diretamente entre o sol e a Terra e suas sombras caem sobre a superfície da Terra.

Recall that if a line is parallel to the vector v and passes through the point P0, which is the tip of the position vector r0, t
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The vector equation of the line is

                                \overrightarrow{r}=+t

Parametric equations for given line are

                                       x=7+t\\y=-8+6t\\z=3-13t

Explanation:

The vector equation of the line is given by

                                     r(t) = r_{o} + tv

r₀ = (7, -8, 3)

v = (1, 6, -13)

At these points the vector equation for this line is:

\overrightarrow{r}=\overrightarrow{r_{o}}+t\overrightarrow{v}\\\overrightarrow{r}=+t

Parametric equations for given line are

                                       x=7+t\\y=-8+6t\\z=3-13t

The relationship between mass and inertia is described by newton's second law of motion. true or false
Mariana [72]
False. Inertia and mass is not described in Newton’s second law of motion but in Newton’s first law of motion. Newton’s first law of motion or sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. In Newton’s first law indicates that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.1 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.4 x 10-8 m.
ziro4ka [17]

a) The charge on the outer surface is 1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

b) The number of ions is 7.5\cdot 10^6

Explanation:

a)

The membrane behaves as a parallel plate capacitor, whose capacity is given by the equation

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

k = 4.3 is the dielectric constant

\epsilon_0 =8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A=5.1\cdot 10^{-9} m^2 is the surface area

d=1.4\cdot 10^{-8} m is the distance between the two plates

Substituting,

C=\frac{(4.3)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(5.1\cdot 10^{-9})}{1.4\cdot 10^{-8}}=1.4\cdot 10^{-11} F

The capacity of the membrane is related to the potential difference between the two surfaces by

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta V}

where here we have

Q = excess charge on one surface

\Delta V = 85.5 mV = 0.0855 V is the potential difference between the two surfaces

Solving for Q, we find

Q=C\Delta V=(1.4\cdot 10^{-11})(0.0855)=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

b)

We said that the net charge on the outer surface is

Q=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C

The charge of one K+ ions is equal to the electron charge

+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Therefore, the number of ions on the outer surface can be found by dividing the total charge by the charge of a single ion:

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^{-12}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=7.5\cdot 10^6
