Answer: The correct option is option E (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year.
Explanation:
The earth, which is one of the planets of the solar system that supports life, is shperical in shape. The spherical ( round) shape of the earth is marked by the intervening highlands and oceans on its surface.
Evidence to show that the earth is shperical are:
--> The Lunar eclipse: During an eclipse of the Moon, the shadow of the Earth is always seen to be round.
--> Ships Visibility: When ships travel a large distance away, we see their hulls disappear first and their masts disappear last.
-->Altitude of Polaris (North Star): The height of the North Star changes as we travel to different latitudes. That is ,increases as you move toward the North pole, or decreases as you move toward the equator.
--> Aerial photographs: Photographs of the Earth from space always show a round body.
The statement that doesn't prove that the earth is spherical in shape is (the Sun is seen blocking different constellations in the course of a year). The sun is seen in front of stars blocking different constellation in a year because the earth orbits round the sun in a year and not that it is shperical in shape.
Answer:
E= 4.35*10^6 N/C
Explanation:
Let's find the area charge density of the plate
α= 6.9*10^-6/9*10^-2 = 7.7*10^-5C/m2
Now we can calculate the electric field just of the plate
E =α/2e =7.7*10^-5/2*8.85*10^-12 = 4.35*10^6 N/C
Answer:
Radio waves have a wavelength between 
and 
While,
X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.
=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.
=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it
=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.
So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.
