Answer:

If we consider a system where the y-axis as the South-North line, and the x-axis as the West-East line (where North and East are the positive sides)

We know that the sun goes from East to West, so in our system, the sun goes from the positive side of the x-axis to the negative side of the x-axis.

Where we would see this if we were standing right in the equator line.

If we where in other point of the planet, the Sun will stil move from East to West, but it will have a little tilt along the path, so we will have a little displacement in the y-axis. This displacement will depend on where we are, if we are at the North of the equator, we will se that the sun seems to go a little towards South as it goes to the West side.

Jim thinks that he can throw a baseball six meters per second. What does the six meters refer to?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Six meters refers to the distance the baseball travels in one second.

Explanation:

6 m/s means that every second, the baseball travels 6m. So, 6 meters is the distance traveled in one second.

What mRNA sequence would result from the following DNA sequence?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

UAC CUG AGG AUC

Explanation:

The mRNA sequence from ATG GAC TCC TAG DNA sequence would be UAC CUG AGG AUC.

According to Chargaff's base pairing rule, the purine bases always pair with pyrimidine bases. Specifically, Adenine base must pair with Thymine base while Guanine base must pair with Cytosine base. In RNA, Thymine base is replaced with Uracil base.

Hence:

ATG GAC TCC TAG will pair with

UAC CUG AGG AUC

Higher mass protostars enter the main sequence: at the same rate, but at a higher luminosity and temperature. slower and at a lo

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.

Explanation:

A protostar looks like a star but its core is not yet hot enough for fusion to take place. The luminosity comes exclusively from the heating of the protostar as it contracts. Protostars are usually surrounded by dust, which blocks the light that they emit, so they are difficult to observe in the visible spectrum.

A protostar becomes a main sequence star when its core temperature exceeds 10 million K. This is the temperature needed for hydrogen fusion to operate efficiently.

Stars above about 200 solar masses (Higher mass) generate power so furiously that gravity cannot contain their internal pressure. These stars blow themselves apart and do not exist for long if at all. A protostar with less than 0.08 solar masses never reaches the 10 million K temperature needed for efficient hydrogen fusion. These result in “failed stars” called brown dwarfs which radiate mainly in the infrared and look deep red in color. They are very dim and difficult to detect, but there might be many of them, and in fact they might outnumber other stars in the universe.

That is why higher mass protostars enter the main sequence at a faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.

If you place a glass cylinder in Wessin Oil, the view of the cylinder nearly disappeared when the eyedropper was full of Wessin

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index
