Answer:

Solar Flares and Prominences

Explanation:

    The sun is source of light and heat energy and it supports life on earth because sun is the primary source of energy. But sun is also a star and is a glowing ball of hot gases mostly hydrogen and helium. There are so many activity that takes place on surface of sun. But the two activity solar flare and prominences affect the radio communication.

Solar Flare  are electromagnetic energy built up in the sun atmosphere .These energy travel with the speed of light and affect outer atmosphere of earth. These increased level of X rays and ultraviolet rays ions the layer of ionosphere which becomes superionised. thus causing destructive interference.

The radio waves travel in ionosphere and  frequently collide with electron lose energy and completely blackout.

Prominence is defined as gaseous cloud of calcium,hydrogen and other gases floating above sun chromosphere and emit violently particularly near sunspots sometimes travel through space and affect radio communication.

netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

If 36 grams of water is to be heated from 24.0°C to 48°C to make a cup of tea, how much heat must be added? The specific heat of
Vinvika [58]

We will have the following:

\begin{gathered} Q=mc\Delta T\Rightarrow Q=(36)(4.18)(48-24) \\  \\ \Rightarrow Q=3611.52 \end{gathered}

So, the heat to add is 3611.52 Joules.

7. A block of copper of unknown mass has an initial temperature of 65.4oC. The copper is immersed in a beaker containing 95.7g o
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

37.34372 kg

Explanation:

m = Mass

\Delta T = Change in temperature

1 denotes water

2 denotes copper

c = Heat capacity

Heat is given by

Q=mc\Delta T

In this case the heat transfer will be equal

m_1c_1\Delta T_1=m_2c_2\Delta T_2\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1c_1\Delta T_1}{c_2\Delta T_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{95.7\times 4.18(24.2-22.7)}{0.39(65.4-24.2)}\\\Rightarrow m_2=37.34372\ kg

Mass of copper block is 37.34372 kg

Given a second class lever with a distance of 5.00 feet from the fulcrum to the effort and a distance of 33.0 inches from the re
leva [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. 45.5 lbs.

Explanation:

In a second class lever, the load is located between the point in which the force is exerted and the fulcrum.

The formula for any problem involving a lever is:

F_ed_e=F_ld_l

Where F_e is the effort force, d_e is the total length of the lever, F_l is the load that can be lifted and d_l is the distance between the point of the effort and the fulcrum.

The parameter of the formula that you need is F_l:

F_l=\frac{F_ed_e}{d_l}

The conversion from feet to inches is 1 ft is equal to 12 inches. In this case, 5 ft are equal to 60 inches.

F_l=\frac{25*60}{33}

F_l=45.5 lbs

2. What is the standard value of acceleration due to gravity or "g"?
svp [43]

Answer:

The standard acceleration due to gravity (or standard acceleration of free fall), sometimes abbreviated as standard gravity, usually denoted by ɡ0 or ɡn, is the nominal gravitational acceleration of an object in a vacuum near the surface of the Earth. It is defined by standard as 9.80665 m/s2 (about 32.17405 ft/s2).
