3 0

Answer:

A radio telescope helped the astronomers discover the CMB.

Explanation:

  • Penzias and Wilson while experimenting with a radio telescope in 1964, accidentally discovered the radiation that exists universally also known as the CMB.
  • This was used to support the "Big Bang Theory" and not the "Steady State Theory"
  • CMB is the faint cosmic radiation that fills up the universe. It provides important data for understanding early universe.
  • This data tells us about the composition of the universe and its age which raises new questions about the universe.

Un avión vuela a 10000m de altura y otro a 33300 pies, si un pie equivale a 30.48cm ¿Cuál vuela a mayor altura?
user100 [1]

Answer:

Avion A (10000 meters).

Explanation:

Deje que la altura de los aviones sea A y B respectivamente.

Dados los siguientes datos;

Altura A = 10000 metros

Altura B = 33300 pies

Para encontrar el avión que voló más alto, tendríamos que hacer alguna conversión de unidades.

Conversión:

Metros a centímetros;

1 metro = 100 cm

10000 metros = 100 * 10000 = 1.000.000 centímetros.

Por lo tanto, la altura A en cm = 1,000,000 centímetros

Pies a centímetros;

1 pie = 30,48 centímetros

33300 pies = 33300 * 30,48 = 1014984 centímetros.

Por lo tanto, la altura B en cm = 1014984 centímetros.

De los cálculos anteriores, podemos deducir que el avión A voló más alto.

Plz help me it’s a true or false question A shorter wire will allow electricity to
mr Goodwill [35]

-- A shorter wire will allow electricity to  move through at a higher rate than a  longer wire . . . True, but "rate" is a poor way to say it. It should say "a higher current".  

-- A short, thick, cold wire is the best  conductor . . .  True

-- How well a material conducts current is an internal factor affecting resistance . . . True

-- If you double the length of a wire, you cut  the resistance in half . . . False. Double the length also means double the resistance.

-- If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half . . . True

-- Superconductors have no measurable  resistance . . . True. They literally have NO resistance.

-- The higher the temperature of the  conductor, the lower the resistance . . . False. Higher temperature means higher resistance, for almost all conductors.

-- The resistance in a wire with less  thickness is less . . . False. We just said, up above  in Question-#5, "If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half". Less thickness means more resistance. Just like a highway with fewer lanes.

-- Thickness, length, and temperature are  internal factors that affect resistance . . . False. They affect resistance, but they're external factors.

-- When a light is first switched on the light  bulb's filament has a lower resistance  than after it gives off light for awhile . . . True. Look back 3 questions from here, where it says "Higher temperature means higher resistance".
