Which statements about Earth’s core help explain Earth’s magnetic field? Check all that apply.
Stella [2.4K]

All the statements can be used to explain about Earth's magnetic field.

Earth's magnetic field is almost same to that of the bar magnet. The magnetic field of the earth occurs from its core. It has an inner core which is solid in nature. in the outer core, there is a motion of the liquid due to heat flow from the inner core to the core mantle boundary which proves that the outer core is liquid and moving. The Earth's core consists of iron and nickel as the Eddy currents in the iron and nickel liquid helps generating the Earth's magnetic field.

Hence, all the three statements are true and can be used to explain the Earth's magnetic field.

7. A beam of light converges at a point P. Now a lens is placed in the path of the convergent
Rudiy27

Answer:

Lens at a distance = 7.5 cm

Lens at a distance = 6.86 cm  (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Object distance u = 12 cm

a) Focal length = 20 cm

b) Focal length = 16 cm

Computation:

a. 1/v = 1/u + 1/f

1/v = 1/20 + 1/12

v = 7.5 cm

Lens at a distance = 7.5 cm

b.  1/v = 1/u + 1/f

1/v = 1/16 + 1/12

v = 6.86 cm  (Approx)

Lens at a distance = 6.86 cm  (Approx)

Interstellar matter is quite evenly distributed throughout the milky way galaxy. true or false
melomori [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In addition to stars, our galaxy contains abundant diffuse matter that is distributed throughout its volume and constitutes what we call the interstellar medium. This medium plays a fundamental role in the life cycle of the stars, since it is where the matter from which they are born resides, and it is the place to which it returns when the stars expel their outer layers at death.

The interstellar medium is a complex environment. <u>Its matter is </u><u>not </u><u>distributed uniformly</u>, but consists of different phases with temperatures ranging from a few degrees Kelvin (near absolute zero) in the areas of star formation to the millions of degrees Kelvin observed in supernova remnants. The densities of interstellar matter also vary orders of magnitude according to the phase, but they are always so low that they rival those that can be achieved in the best vacuum chambers of terrestrial laboratories. Depending on the density and temperature conditions, interstellar matter is in a molecular, atomic, or ionized state, although the state is not permanent, since matter circulates between the different phases in a continuous cycle of evolution on a galactic scale.

Due to the very different characteristics of its multiple phases, the interstellar medium has to be studied using various observational techniques and different types of telescopes. The coldest components of the interstellar medium do not emit visible light, and require the observation of telescopes sensitive to the weak emission of radio waves that this material produces. Using different radio telescopes, such as the 40-meter diameter of the Yebes Observatory, which the Institute of Radio Astronomy Millimeter, to which the IGN belongs, has in Grenoble and Granada, or the recently opened Atacama Large Millimeter / submillimeter Array in the Atacama desert in Chile, astronomers from the National Astronomical Observatory contribute to characterize the physical and chemical properties of the molecular clouds where stars are born and of the circumestellar shells produced by the stars in the last stages of their lives . The study of these regions is helping to complete our knowledge of the most unknown phases of the complex life cycle of stars.
