Answer:

The difference is 7.6 grams.

Explanation:

In mathematics the difference of two numbers is express as the subtraction between them:

         

a-b

So to find out the difference between the two measured masses, a will be represented by 123.6 grams since is the bigger number, and b by 115.972 grams.

Therefore, it is get:

123.6grams-115.972grams = 7.6grams

<u>Hence, the difference is 7.6 grams. </u>

The result of 7.628 will be expressed as 7.6 to have the correct number of significant figures.          

 

Notice how that can be express in units of kilograms too since there is 1000 gram in 1 kilogram:

7.6grams . \frac{1Kg}{1000grams} ⇒ 7.6x10^{-3}Kg

the fossil informed us about the climatic and geographical changes that occurs in the environment over time.

<h3>What the mystery fossil dig site informed us about environment?</h3>

We can infer about the climate and geographical changes in the environment over time at the mystery fossil dig site because the fossil provides us information about the climatic condition as well as the geography of land when this fossil organism were alive.

So we can conclude that the fossil informed us about the climatic and geographical changes that occurs in the environment over time.

What is electric force ​
AysviL [449]

Electric force occurs between positive and negative electric charge. It can be calculated with formula F=\frac{Q_1Q_2}{A\epsilon_0\epsilon_r} where F is force, Q1 and Q2 are charges, A is area of object usually ball (A=4\pi r^2) because we describe charges as points in space like electrons and protons, \epsilon_0 is a natural dielectric constant of empty space or vacuum (\epsilon_0=8.85\times10^{-12}\mathsf{\frac{As}{Vm}}) and \epsilon_r also known as relative dielectric variable.

There are two types of the force:

1. Attractive electric force

2. Repulsive electric force

Attractive electric force occurs between positively and negatively charged objects while repulsive occurs between equally charged objects for eg. (positive and positive will repulse).

If you drop a rock off a cliff and it hits the ground 3 seconds later how tall is that cliff
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Basic kinematics, negating drag and assuming ideal conditions, we use the equation:

d=vi*t+1/2*a*t^2

Since vi is 0 (we know this because you’re dropping it, not throwing it)…

…and the only acceleration acting on it is gravity, a=9.8 m/s^2…

…we get

d=1/2(9.8)(5)^2

Explanation:

Some quick mental math tells us that this is about 125 m.

Plugging it in, we find it to be 122.5 m.

Why do meandering streams form an alternating series of cut banks and point bars along their course?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

A stream erodes the outsiders of meanders and deposits sand and gravel on the inside bends to from point bars. Both the velocity and channel depths are greatest near the outside bend and stream erode at outsides banks. In the same time sediment erodes is deposited in the slower water on the inside of the meander forming a point bar. Because the outside bank of a meander is eroded and sediment is deposited on the insde of the bend towards its outside bank. Hence in this meandering streams form an alternating series of cut banks and point bars along there course.
