Answer:

The Nautilus travel 5.52\times 10^5 furlongs.

Explanation:

Given: 1 league = 5.556 km

1 furlong = 660.0 feet

To find: 20,000 leagues = ? furlongs

Solution:

20,000 leagues = 20,000\times 5.556 km =111,120 km

1 km = 3280.84 feet

111,120 km= 111,120\times 3280.84 feet=364,566,940.8 feet

If ,1 furlong = 660.0 feet.

Then, 1 foot = \frac{1}{660.0} furlong

364,566,940.8 feet=364,566,940.8 \times \frac{1}{660.0}

=552,374.1524 furlongs\approx 5.52\times 10^5 furlongs

Why do all atoms of an element have the same atomic number, although they may have
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Here’s what I get.

Explanation:

  • The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
  • The number of protons determines the number of electrons.
  • The number of electrons determines the chemical properties of the element,

Thus, the atomic number determines the identity of the element.

The atomic mass does not affect the chemical properties, so different isotopes of an element behave alike.

Why did the plates began to slip against each other 30 million years ago forming San Andreas fault
Jlenok [28]

The currents of the mantle pull the crust above it through drag. The plates, therefore, move on top of the mantle. At San Andreas fault, the North American Plate met the Pacific plate. However, due to the presence of the  Farallon plate that was disappearing into the mantle in a subduction zone, the Pacific and North American plates movements changed in their configuration. The two plates now move past each other. The San Andreas fault is, therefore, a strike-slip fault.
