Answer:

continental drift

Explanation:

Wegener proposed that the continents plowed through crust of ocean basins, which would explain why the outlines of many coastlines look like they fit together like a puzzle

Contact lenses are designed to be gas permeable in order to allow oxygen to diffuse to the eye. If the edge of a contact lens is
guapka [62]

Answer: A

The diffusion time through the edge is double the diffusion time through the center.

Explanation:

Only the diffusion coefficient, thickness, surface area, distance affects the time it takes a gas such as oxygen to diffuse a given in a medium. The Diffusion time increases with the square of diffusion distance  Also, the Increased surface area increases the rate of diffusion or the diffusion time, whereas a thicker membrane reduces the rate of diffusion or time it takes the gas to be permeable. Also, The greater the distance that a substance must travel, the slower the rate of diffusion The diffusion coefficient determines the time it takes a gas to diffuse. Also the Diffusion time is inversely proportional to the diffusion coefficient.

Now, If the edge of a contact lens is double the thickness of the central portion of the lens, then it will take more time for the gas to diffuse through the thicker portion. since its edge is double the central position, then the diffusion time will also be doubled. So Option A is the best answer-

The diffusion time through the edge is double the diffusion time through the center.

Whats the difference between independent and dependent variables? also, theory and hypothesis?
svlad2 [7]
Independent variable: the variable in an experiment which value is not changed based on any other variable. often denoted by "x"
dependent variable: the variable in an experiment which changes based on the value of the independent variable, ie how much of it you use, how often you use it, etc. often denoted by "y"

theory: an explanation as to why certain phenomena occur. supported and testable, but could change with new research / experiments, etc.
hypothesis: a guess or an estimate of what will happen during an experiment. testable, and may be wrong.

i hope this helps!!

Find Jupiter's mass from the fact that its moon Io orbits every 42.5 hours at an average distance of 422,000 kilometers.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

M=1.9\times 10^{27}\ kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Orbital period, T = 42.5 hours = 153000 seconds

The average distance of Jupiter's mass, r = 422,000 km

We need to find Jupiter's mass. The formula for the orbital period is given by :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3\\\\T^2GM=4\pi^2 r^3\\\\M=\dfrac{4\pi^2 r^3}{T^2 G}\\\\M=\dfrac{4\pi^2 \times (422000 \times 10^3)^3}{(153000 )^2 \times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}\\\\M=1.9\times 10^{27}\ kg

So, the mass of Jupiter is 1.9\times 10^{27}\ kg.
