Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such travel at the speed of light. Waves emitted a century ago would be 100 hundred light years away. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. In one year light travels about 5.9 trillion miles. therefore the waves traveled about 590 trillion miles in a century.

Which statement BEST explains the overall success or failure of the Compromise of 1850?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The statement that BEST explains the overall success of the Compromise of 1850 is The compromise was largely successful due to its effectiveness in resolving sectional tensions.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 was largely successful because it helped to resolve a number of rising tensions between the States. The compromise was actually 5 different bills that were passed by Congress. The Mexican-American War had fueled tensions between the northern and southern states as they had acquired a vast expanse of new territory including New Mexico, Utah, and California. Texas had been claiming the area of present-day New Mexico but the federal government took over Texas' debt to get Texas to give up their claim. California was admitted to the Union as a free state, and the other areas of the Mexican succession were allowed to decide if they would allow slavery or not.

You watch a volcano erupt non-explosively, then 5 days later you see it erupt explosively.
alexdok [17]

D. high and low levels of silica in the different type of lava.

Explanation:

The volcanoes have different types of explosions. Some tend to be highly explosive, some less explosive, some don't have explosions at all, while some have combinations of different eruptions. The reason for this diversity in the eruption types is mostly the composition of the magma, or rather how high is the silica content in it.

Basically, the higher the silica level in the magma the higher the explosiveness, and the lower the silica level the lower the chances of explosiveness. This is the case because the higher amount of silica makes the magma thicker, so the gasses are trapped and they explode, while when the lower silica content makes the magma less thick, so the gasses are not trapped and explosions are lacking.
