It is true that the diameter of the moon is a little less than the distance across the United States.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

Moon is the natural satellite of our Earth. It revolves around the Earth due to the gravitational force acting on the moon. The moon also has its own gravitational force. The gravitational force of moon is \frac{1}{6} t h of the gravitational force on Earth.

The mass of moon is 7.34 \times 10^{22} kg while the mass of the Earth is 5.972 \times 10^{24} kg. So the moon’s mass is very very less than that of Earth. So the diameter of moon is found as 3,472 km while the diameter of Earth is 12,742 km.

Thus the dimension of moon is \frac{1}{4} t h of the dimension of the Earth. Even the diameter of moon is little less than the distance across the United States as the distance across United States is 4509 km.

What is the relationship between the size of a predator population and the size of a prey population
Contact [7]
<span>Let's put it this way. Say you have a killer-whale and a penguin. Killer-whales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killer-whale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killer-whales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killer-whales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killer-whale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.</span>

The pressure on a volume of liquid V = 1.0 mº at the surface is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure Patm = 1.00 x 10
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:-2.86*10⁻⁴

Explanation: Use the equation change in volume = (change in pressure * original volume) / Bulks Modulus. ΔV = (-Δp*V₀) / B

Plugging in your numbers, you should get ΔV = (-2.29*10⁷*1) / (8*10¹⁰) = -2.86*10⁻⁴

ΔP = P₂-P₁  ----> ΔP = 2.30*10⁷ - 1.00*10⁵ = 2.29*10⁷

How can the rate of a reaction be increased?
olya-2409 [2.1K]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>

-Rate of reaction is the speed at which the reactants are converted to products.

-Rate of reactions depends on a number of factors which includes<u>;</u>

  • <em><u>Concentration of reactants</u></em>;<u><em> increasing the concentration of reactants</em></u> increases the rate of reaction.
  • <u><em>Temperature;</em></u><u><em> </em></u>An <u><em>increase in temperature results to an increased rate of reaction.</em></u> Increase in temperature increases the kinetic energy of molecules thus the collision per unit time also increases and hence the rate of reaction increases.
  • <u><em>Decreasing the size of particles of solid reactants</em></u> also increases the rate of reaction. This is because smaller particles increases the surface area on which more collisions can occur thus a faster rate of reaction.
  • <em>Adding a catalyst also increases the rate of reaction.</em> This is because catalysts lower the activation energy of reactants, minimum energy require by reactants for the reaction to take place. This thus increases the rate of reaction.
