he sun of 93 million miles. Except for the moon Hyperion that orbits Saturn, all known moons in the solar system are _______ locked. Most moons have prograde orbits about their planets, meaning that they orbit in the same direction as their planets _______. Many comets, meteorites, and other large bodies called dwarf planets can be found in the _______ Belt.

4.Kuiper

5.A solar nebula forms when the gas and dust are pulled together in a spinning disk. Particles began to clump together due to gravity, and larger chunks of material exert more gravity on nearby dust and gas. These chunks of material grew faster and formed planets or moons. Denser elements such as iron settled closer to the center of the solar nebula.

A magnitude-5.0 earthquake releases about ____ Times more energy than a 4.0 magnitude earthquake.
Elis [28]

A magnitude-5.0 earthquake releases about <u>32</u> times more energy than a 4.0 magnitude earthquake.

Explanation:

The characteristics of an earthquake are mostly measured through its magnitude and intensity.

A earthquake will generate seismic energy waves which will spread outwardly on the earth's surface in all directions.

The magnitude of an earthquake is the quantitative measure of the amount of energy released during a seismic activity or an earthquake.

The intensity of an earthquake is a descriptive measure of the severity or the strength of the earthquake based on the impact it has done on the earth’s surface, human population, and other man-made structures on the earth and the potential danger.

The magnitude measured using a seismograph is expressed as a whole number or a decimal fraction like 5.7, 4.5 etc. The severity of the magnitude is compared against the standard Richter’s Scale.

The intensity is denoted in Roman numerals and compared against various scales like Mercalli or Rossi-Forel Scales.

Based on the logarithmic application of the scale, each whole number increase in an earthquake’s magnitude depicts a ten-fold increase in severity of the amplitude of the earthquake as measured on the seismogram and denotes about 32 times increased energy release .

A scientist observed 12 finches on an island. The finches ate beetles, caterpillars, and worms. What can the scientist predict a
erastovalidia [21]

The scientists can predict that the finches on the island are mostly insectivores.

This is a generalization because the scientist have taken 12 finches as a sample population and predicted the food habits of the Entire population of finches living on the island.

Explanation:

  • Generalization refers to deriving a conclusion about anything by observing any sample of it.
  • Usually generalizations are done while studying large populations.
  • We can define generalization as an act in which broad inferences are drawn by small observation.
  • It makes the qualitative evaluation easy when it is very difficult to study each an every individual of population.
  • In this experiment the scientists have observed only 12 out of many finches living on the island.
  • They observed only these 12 finches and inferred about the eating habits of all the finches in the island.
  • So, here a small observation of only 12 finches was used to give a broader inference about all the finches. Thus, it is a generalization.
