Because the fossil show layers and those layers show what kind of settlements where left behind at that layer

A satellite was in two separate crashes. In both crashes, the satellite had the same mass. Engineers want to know about the spee

irina1246 [14]

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.

What is the value of sin r and sin i in physics

taurus [48]

Answer:

★The second law of refraction

The ratio of sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant for a light of given colour and for a given pair of media. This law is also called Snell's law of refraction. If 'i' is the angle of incidence and 'r' is the angle of refraction then, Sin i/Sin r = constant

This constant value is called the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first.

A demented scientist creates a new temperature scale, the "Z scale." He decides to call the boiling point of nitrogen 0°Z and th

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) $Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

B) $C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

C) $K = C +273.15$

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

$Z = a C + b$

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

$a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}$

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

$0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b$

And if we solve for b we got:

$b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z$

So then our lineal model would be:

$Z = 0.577 C +112.931$

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

$Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z$

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

$Z-112.931 = 0.577 C$

$C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C$

Part C

For this case we know that $K = C +273.15$

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

$K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K$
