Answer:

0.5792g

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of the meter stick is shown below:

Let us assume the following items

x1 = 50 cm;

m2 = m3 = 3.62 g;

x2 = x3 = 20.3 cm;

xcm = 22.5 cm

Based on the above assumption, now we need to apply the equation of center mass which is given below:

Xcm = \frac{m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3}{m1 + m2 + m3} \\\\ 22.5 = \frac{m1\times 50 + 3.62 \times 20.3 + 3.62 \times 20.3}{m1 + 3.62 + 3.62}\\\\ 22.5m1 + 162.9 = 50m1 + 73.486 + 73.486

27.5 m1 = 15.928

So, the m1  = 0.5792g

yKpoI14uk [10]
Reflection. I used the process of elimination. Cleavage and color are properties of a mineral and magnetism is a property as well you just can’t find strong traces of it in all minerals. But it’s there no matter how weak or strong it’s attraction is drawn to magnetic fields.

Wegener developed he hypothesis that Earth's landmasses had once been fused together, and hen slowly broke apart in a process ca
ivanzaharov [21]

Solution: C. Pangea

The hypothesis of Continental drift suggests that in past, there was only one landmass on the Earth -Pangaea which drifted apart due to movement of plate tectonics causing earthquake. This hypothesis is supported by many evidences which includes presence of similar fossils on different landmasses, common land features such as widespread presence of glacial sediments etc.
