Answer: The correct answer is A. Breed a cow that produces large quantities of milk with a bull that comes from a line of cattle with long lifespans.

Explanation: This answer makes the most since and it shows the use of artificial selection. Artificial selection is when humans breed selectively to develop certain traits they are looking for or want in an animal. (I took the test and this was the correct answer.)

Have a nice day! :)

Answer:

The answer is

A. Pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

Explanation:

 The question is incomplete, here is a complete question with full options

You are caulking a window. The caulk is rather thick and, to lay the bead correctly, the exit nozzle is small. A caulking gun uses a plunger which is operated by pulling back on a handle. You must squeeze the handle very hard to get the caulk to come out of the narrow opening because:_________.

A. pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

B. viscous drag between the walls of the tip and the caulk causes the caulk to swirl around chaotically.

C. Newton’s third law requires most of the energy in the caulk to be used to push back on the plunger rather than moving it through the tip.

D. the high density of the caulk impedes its flow through the small opening.

Since the caulk is thick and the exit nozzle is small, the pressure needed to deliver the caulk will be very high as pressure is uniformly distributed at the plunger side at every part of the caulk, hence very high pressure is needed to deliver the caulk which is why the handle needed the very hard squeeze

Two long, parallel wires are separated by 2.2 mm. Each wire has a 32-AA current, but the currents are in opposite directions. Pa
Alex

Answer:

B=1.1636*10^{-3}T

Explanation:

Given data

d_{wires}=2.2mm=0.022m\\ I_{current}=32A\\

To find

Magnitude of the net magnetic field B

Solution

The magnitude of the net magnetic field can be find as:

B=2*u\frac{I}{2\pi r}\\ B=2*(4\pi*10^{-7}  )\frac{32}{2\pi (0.022/2)} \\ B=1.1636*10^{-3}T

Arisa [49]
The first law states that “objects at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force”. Keeping the ice smooth will make sure there is not friction, friction would slow the puck down

A vinyl record is played by rotating the record so that an approximately circular groove in the vinyl slides under a stylus. Bum
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Hits per second=199 hit/s

Explanation:

#Given the angular velocity, \omega=33\frac{1}{3} rev/min , radius of the record r=0.1m and the distance between any two successive bumps on the groove as d=1.75mm.

The linear speed of the record in meters per second is:

v=\omega r=33\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{2\pi}{60}\times 10\times 10^{_2}\\\\=0.3843m/s\\

#From v above, if the bumps are uniformly separated by 1m, then the rate at which they hit the stylus is:

Hits/second=v/d    \ \ \ \ d=1.75mm\\\\=0.3483/0.000175\\\\=199.0385714\approx 199

Hence the bumps hit the stylus at around 199hit/s
