<h2>Answer: dark matter</h2>

It is believed that the Milky Way has 90% dark matter and only 10% ordinary matter (known matter). Because, like gravity, <u>dark matter can not be observed directly</u>, however its existence is inferred through the movement of the stars and the cosmic dust within the galaxy.

It is important to note that dark matter composition is unknown and corresponds to 80% of the matter in the universe. It does not emit or interact with any type of electromagnetic radiation, but it interacts with the known matter through gravity.

How has God designed sound waves so that a person is able to hear all the different instruments in a musical piece at the same t

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: when the wave encounters something, it can bounce (reflection) or be bent (refraction). In fact, you can "trap" waves by making them bounce back and forth between two or more surfaces. Musical instruments take advantage of this; they produce pitches by trapping sound waves.

Explanation: Any bunch of sound waves will produce some sort of noise. But to be a tone - a sound with a particular pitch - a group of sound waves has to be very regular, all exactly the same distance apart. That's why we can talk about the frequency and wavelength of tones.

A glass ball of radius 3.74 cm sits at the bottom of a container of milk that has a density of 1.04 g/cm3. The normal force on t

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The mass of the ball is 0.23 kg

Explanation:

Given that

radius ,r= 3.74 cm

Density of the milk ,ρ = 1.04 g/cm³ = 1.04 x 10⁻³ kg/cm³

Normal force ,N= 9.03 x 10⁻² N

The volume of the ball V

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi \times 3.74^3\ cm^3$

V= 219.13 cm³

The bouncy force on the ball = Fb

Fb = ρ V g

Fb + N = m g

m=Mass of the ball = Density x volume

m = γ V , γ =Density of the Ball

ρ V g + N = γ V g ( take g= 10 m/s²)

$\gamma =\dfrac{N+\rho V g}{V g}$

$\gamma =\dfrac{9.03\times 10^{-2}+1.04\times 10^{-3}\times 219.13\times 10}{219.13\times 10}$

γ = 0.00108 kg/cm³

m = γ V

m = 0.00108 x 219.13

m= 0.23 kg

The mass of the ball is 0.23 kg

Do you think it is possible to control the magnetic properties of a magnet? Can a magnet be turned on and off?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Yes it is possible to control to some extent.

Explanation:

In general there are two types of magnets : permanent and temporary (electromagnets).

Electromagnets can be controlled since it basically depends on electricity. By switching on and off the electric supply the magnets also can be switched on and off respectively. We can also control the intensity of magnetic power.

On the other hand permanent magnet cannot be switched on and off but the magnetic properties can be altered event to an extent when it loses all its magnetic properties. It can be caused by high temperature, physical impact and also exposure to other magnetic fields. For every element there is a point of temperature called curie temperature above which the permanent magnet loses its magnetic properties. This can be brought back again by induced magnetism. The only issue is that induced magnetism work in most cases but not in all.
