Answer:

A star that always remains above your horizon and appears to rotate around the celestial pole.

Explanation:

A) a star that is close to the north celestial pole: a circumpolar star could be close to the north celestial pole, but this answer is omitting the south celestial pole.

B) a star that is close to the south celestial pole: a circumpolar star could be close to the south celestial pole, but this answer is omitting the north celestial pole.

C) a star that always remains above your horizon and appears to rotate around the celestial pole: this is the definition of a circumpolar star.

D) a star that makes a daily circle around the celestial sphere: every star does this.

E) a star that is visible from the Arctic or Antarctic circles : there are many starts visible from there that are not circumpolar.

A person carries a plank of wood 1.6 m long with one hand pushing down on it at one end with a force F1 and the other hand holdi
Elis [28]

Answer: 115.52\ N

Explanation:

Given

Length of plank is 1.6 m

Force F_1 is applied on the left side of plank

Force F_2 is applied 43 cm from the left end O.

Mass of the plank is m=13.7\ kg

for equilibrium

Net torque must be zero. Taking torque about left side of the plank

\Rightarrow mg\times 0.8-F_2\times 0.43=0\\\\\Rightarrow F_2=\dfrac{13.7\times 9.8\times 0.8}{0.43}\\\\\Rightarrow F_2=249.78\ N

Net vertical force must be zero on the plank

\Rightarrow F_1+W-F_2=0\\\Rightarrow F_1=F_2-W\\\Rightarrow F_1=249.78-13.7\times 9.8\\\Rightarrow F_1=115.52\ N

The equation below is for potassium oxide.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
