<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. anemometer

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u><em>An anemometer is an instrument that is used for measuring the speed of the wind. It is a common weather station instrument. </em></u>
  • <em><u>Some anemometers are designed to measure both the speed of the wind and the direction of the wind.  wind direction is given from where the wind is coming from to where it is going to.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Wind vane on the other hand is an instrument that is used to show the direction of the wind It may be found as part of the anemometer to determine wind's direction.</u></em>

The correct answer is letter D. Anemometer. It is a device that is used to measure wind speed. It is a very common weather station instrument and is available to use and to make. Anemos, from the greek word that means wind.

Which quantity best describes this description? Justin walks at 3 miles per hour north, and then speeds up to 4 miles per hour.
prisoha [69]

Personally, I agree with your answer, namely that the likely-intended event happening here is one of acceleration. Having said that, I also want to add: it pains me to see this type of wording because, clearly, it is vague and only invites confusion of the type you are talking about.

Good luck!

A proton, an electron, and a helium nucleus all move at speed v . Rank their de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Ranking of de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest is electron > proton > helium

  • De Broglie proposed that because light has both wave and particle properties, matter exhibits both wave and particle properties. This property has been explained as the dual behavior of matter.
  • From his observations, de Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship

De Broglie's relationship is given by \lambda=\frac{h}{mv}      .....(1) , where λ  is known as de Broglie wavelength and m is mass , v is velocity , h = Plank’s constant.

From equation (1) wavelength and mass has an inverse relation .

Mass of helium is 4 times the mass of the proton and proton has a greater mass than electron.

According to equation (1) , less the mass higher will be the wavelength

Hence electron having less mass have higher wavelength and then proton and then helium having large mass will have less wavelength .

Thus, order should be electron > proton > helium .

The diagram below represents the rock cycle.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

C. Heat and Pressure

Explanation:

The arrow which is labeled A points from igneous rock to metamorphic rock.

There are three types of Rocks:

1. Igneous Rock

2. Metamorphic Rock

3. Sedimentary Rock

Rock cycle:

Rock cycle is the process that describes the transition between these three types of rocks. Each type has its own form and its own equilibrium condition. The rock type alters when it is pushed out of its equilibrium conditions.

Transition of Igneous rock to Metamorphic rock:

Igneous rock forms when magma cools down. The transition of Igneous Rock to Metamorphic Rock is a result of a process called Metamorphism. Metamorphism is the alteration in the structure of rock as a result of certain heat and pressure conditions. Inside Earth heat comes from pressure. Heat with pressure does not melt the rock but it bakes the rock. Baking is not melting but it changes the shape of the rock while it is still solid. It actually forms crystals. Because the rock changes its structure, it is called Metamorphic Rock.
