Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As it is given that the melting temperature of substance is 1200 degree Celsius and its density is 16.7 g/cm^{3}.

Since, the temperature is very high and no solution or molecule exists at such a high temperature.

Whereas a compound is defined as the substance which contains two or more different elements which chemically combine together in a fixed ratio by mass.

Compounds in the form of alloys have high melting temperature.

Thus, we can conclude that the given unknown substance is most likely a compound.

If the formation of a neutron star leads to a supernova explosion, explain why only three of the hundreds of known pulsars are f
Mandarinka [93]

Explanation:

neutron stars have diameters of about 20km and they are denser than the earth. A rotating neutron star pulsating electromagnetic beam is a named a pulsars but not all neutron stars are pulsars.

Only three of hundreds of known pulsar are found in supernova remnants because as neutron stars gets older, they lose energy and starts to decrease their rotational speeds and the neutron star could not radiate particles and energy for long as a pulsar does. there are less existing pulsars compared to supernova explosion rate because the life time of pulsars is obout 10×10^6 years after the neutron can no longer spin at high speeds to produce beams of particles and energy, almost all the pulsars are older  and spin slow to produce light of visible wavelength or X-ray wavelengths and we only get a pulse of radiation from a neutron star as a pulsar as the beam sweeps over earth.

If the temperature rises by 9. 9 degrees, what is the corresponding temperature increase in degrees celsius?
Yanka [14]

Main Answer:

Assume that the temperature rises by 9.9 F

Initial Temperatures will be C1, F1

Final temperatures will be C2, F1 + 9.9

The relation between celsius and fahrenheit temperature is as follows:

C = 5/9(F - 32)

Increase in temperature in celsius will be

C2 - C1 = F2 - F1

C2 - C1 = 5/9 ( F1 +9.9 -32) - 5/9 ( F1 -32)

C2 - C1 = 5/9 ( F1 +9.9 -32 - F1 +32)

C2 - C1 = 5/9 (9.9)

C2 - C1 = 5.5C

Explanation:

What is temperature?

Temperature is defined as the degree of coldness or hotness of an object or a substance. Generally, it is measured in various temperature scales. They are celsius, fahrenheit, kelvin.

Magnetic fields are produced either by electric currents or time-varying electric fields.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

option (a)

Explanation:

The magnetic field is produced by the electric current, and the direction of magnetic field is given by the Maxwells' right hand rule.

The magnetic field is also be produced by the time varying magnetic fields.
