Why is temperature a good criterion for searching for Earthlike exoplanets?

Liquid water is essential for life to exist. Water can occur in a liquid state only within a specific temperature range, so knowing the temperature range on a planet will help astronomers predict whether life exists on that planet. I hope that this helps

Because it gives us the abilitity to find planets that have decent temperatures relative to earths temp so we can determine if the planet even has a possiblilty to sustain life hope this helps

What happens to the coefficient of friction when the weight is increased? Why is this?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Usually the coefficient of friction remains unchanged

Explanation:

The coefficient of friction should in the majority of cases, remain constant no matter what your normal force is. When you apply a greater normal force, the frictional force increases, and your coefficient of friction stays the same. Here's another way to think about it: because the force of friction is equal to the normal force times the coefficient of friction, friction is increased when normal force is increased.

Plus, the coefficient of friction is a property of the materials being "rubbed", and this property usually does not depend on the normal force.

If a 0.15 kg ball falls and has a KE of 20 J just before striking the ground, from what height did it fall. A. 1.36m B. 3m C. 13
RUDIKE [14]
According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell. 

Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h

Which means KE = m·g·h

We can solve for h:

h = KE / m·g
   = 20 / (0.15 · 9.8) 
   = 13.6m

The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.

Which is an IUPAC name for a covalent compound
Elena L [17]
In naming covalent compound (binary) based in IUPAC naming, we have 4 rules to be followed:

1. The first element of the formula will use the normal name of the given element. for example: CO2 ( Carbon Dioxide), Carbon is the element name of the first element of the formula.

2. The second element is named as if they are treated like an anion but put in mind that these are no ions in a covalent compound but we put -ide on the second element as if it is an anion.

3. Prefixes are used to indicate the number of atom of the elements in the compound. for example: mono- 1 atom, di- 2atoms, tri- 3 atoms and etc

4. Prefix "mono"is never used in naming the first element. For example: Carbon dioxide, there should be no monocarbon dioxide.

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, which of the following statement must b
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

C. Each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

Explanation:

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

In a series connected capacitor, sane amount of charge flows through the capacitors while different potential difference is passed across them.

The capacitors have the same charge as the charge flowing out directly from the potential source called emf since the emf is the driving force of charge in a circuit.
