Two hypothetical discoveries in Part A deal with moons that, like Earth's moon, are relatively large compared to their planets.

Which of the following best explains why finding 1 planet with such a moon is consistent with the nebular theory, while finding 6 planets with such moons is not consistent?

Answer:

Unusually large moons form in giant impacts, which are relatively rare events

Explanation:

Solution:

- Finding large moons comparable in size to their planets result from impacts of two astro-bodies. The probability of such an event occurring is very rare.

- Even at the best luck, one moon can be made from the result of giant impact. While the probability of 6 planets having moons of comparable sizes is close to impossible. The transition from an undifferentiated cloud to a star system complete with planets and moons takes about 100 million years.

When very electronegative atoms, like oxygen, bond to atoms with lower electronegativity, like lithium, what's the result?
umka2103 [35]

(A) The oxygen atom becomes strongly negative.

Explanation:

When a very electronegative atom like oxygen bonds to an atom with a lower electronegativity, like lithium, the oxygen atom becomes strongly negative and the lithium becomes strongly positive.

The attraction between these oppositely charged ions results in the formation ionic bond.

  • An ionic bond is an interatomic bond in which a highly electronegative atom is bonded to less electronegative one.
  • The electronegative nature of the oxgyen allows is to gain the electrons lost by weakly electronegative lthium.
  • Most metals have low electronegativity.
  • They then both will form ions.
  • The attraction between the oppositely charged ions results in an ionic/electrovalent bonding.

A small sphere attached to a light rigid rod rotates about an axis perpendicular to and fixed to the other end of the rod. relat
Crank
<span>d.rotating counterclockwise and slowing down This is a matter of understanding the notation and conventions of angular rotations. Positive rotations are counter clockwise and negative rotations are clockwise. An easy way to remember this is the "right hand rule". Make a closed fist with your right hand and have the thumb sticking outwards. If you orient your thumb such that it's pointing in the direction of the positive value along the axis, your fingers will be curled in the positive rotational direction. So in the described scenario, the sphere is rotating in the positive direction (counter clockwise) and decelerating due to the negative angular acceleration. That immediately indicates that options "a", "b", and "e" are wrong since they mention the sphere going clockwise at the beginning. Of the two remaining options "c" and "d", we can discard option "c" since it has the rotation speeding up, and that leaves us with option "d" where the sphere is rotating counter clockwise and slowing down.</span>

Earth’s largest ecosystems, biomes, are defined primarily by:
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: e. All of the above.

Explanation:

Rainfall, temperature, seasonal variability are the important factors which determines the type of vegetation will grow in a biome, the type of animals will adapt and survive. Also these factors also determine the fact that type of landforms will form over a region. These factors are necessary for the development of the biodiversity. A biodiversity can be define as the variability and variety of life forms that can be found in the ecosystem or biome.
