1 answer:

4 0

Jet stream<span>ˈjet ˈˌstrēm/</span>noun1.a narrow, variable band of very strong, predominantly westerly air currents encircling the globe several miles above the earth. There are typically two or three jet streams in each of the northern and southern hemispheres.

GaryK [48]

The skin is NOT a reproductive organ and the spines attract predators are the incorrect statements.

<h3>Why the list is incorrect?</h3>

The list is incorrect because skin is not a reproductive organ and the spines do not attract predators towards each other. Skin protects the body from the outer environment whereas the spines repel the predators from the plant body.

So we can conclude that the skin is NOT a reproductive organ and the spines attract predators are the incorrect statements.

what are the three types of solenoids, which one is the most common, and which one is used in pinball machines?

amm1812

Answer:

The types of solenoids are: AC Laminated Solenoid , DC Solenoid , Linear Solenoid ,and Rotary Solenoid.

Explanation:

The main purpose of solenoid is to generate the controlled magnetic field that can be used in many forms.
The most common use of solenoid is done in the pinball game.
The Flipper solenoid that uses the two coil are used in the mechanism of pinball machines.
One coil of the solenoid is supplied with high electric current where as other one has the weak current flowing through it.

What is the wavelength, in nm, of the line in the hydrogen spectrum when one n value is 3 and the other n value is 6?

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$\lambda=1090nm$

Explanation:

Rydberg formula is used to calculate the wavelengths of the spectral lines of many chemical elements. For the hydrogen, is defined as:

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2})$

Where $R_H$ is the Rydberg constant for hydrogen and $n_1$ , $n_2$ are the lower energy state and the higher energy state, respectively.

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=1.10*10^{7}m^{-1}(\frac{1}{3^2}-\frac{1}{6^2})\\\frac{1}{\lambda}=9.17*10^{5}m^{-1}\\\lambda=\frac{1}{1.09*10^{6}m^{-1}}\\\lambda=1.09*10^{-6}m*\frac{10^{9}nm}{1m}\\\lambda=1090nm$

Maggie completed a 10000-m race at an average speed of 160

Gala2k [10]

Answer: 200m/min

Explanation:

Divide 10000m by 160m/min, you will get the answer 62.5. You then subtract 12.5 from 62.5 to understand what you will need your answer for the other person’s speed will be. 10000m divided by 50min is 200m/min.

I need help with questions 6-8. Thank you!! Image is attached

Digiron [165]

6) b) 2.7 m/s

7) b) DCA

8) b) B

Explanation:

In a displacement-time plot, the slope of the line is given by

$m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$

where

$\Delta y$ is the change in the y-variable, so it is the displacement

$\Delta x$ is the change in the x-variable, so it is the time elapsed

So, the slope of the line in a displacement-time plot corresponds to the velocity:

$v=m=\frac{d}{t}$

Therefore, to find the velocity of the object, we have to estimate the slope of its curve.

To estimate the velocity of object B, we have to estimate the slope of the line tangent to curve B at 10 seconds.

By doing an estimate by eye, we see that the displacement of object B changes from -10 m to 0 m when time increases from about 8 s to 12 s, so the velocity is about:

$v=\frac{0-(-10)}{12-8}\sim 2.5 m/s$

So the closest option is b) 2.7 m/s.

As we said in part A, the velocity of each object is given by the slope of each curve.

Therefore:

- The steeper the curve, the higher the velocity

- The less steep the curve, the lower the velocity

From the graph, we observe that, among A, C and D:

- Curve D has the largest slope (in absolute value), so object D has the largest magnitude of the velocity

- Curve C is less steep than curve C, so object C has the second largest magnitude of velocity

- Curve A is flat, so the slope is zero, so its velocity is zero

So, from greatest magnitude to lowest magnitude of velocity, we have:

b) DCA

In the graph, the overall displacement of each object is given by the change in the y-variable, $\Delta y$ .

This means that the object with largest displacement is the object whose curve has the largest variation in y.

From the graph, we see that:

- Object b has the largest variation in y, from -15 m to 30 m, so

$\Delta y=30-(-15)=45 m$

- Then, object D has the second largest displacement (in magnitude), from -15 m to 25 m,

$|\Delta y| = 25 -(-15)=40 m$

Finally, object C has displacement

$\Delta y = 20-(-5)=25 m$

While object A has displacement zero. Therefore, the correct option is

b) B
