Answer:

An aurora occurs when <u>the Earth's magnetic field is overwhelmed by charged ions.</u>

Explanation:

The Earth acts as a huge bar magnet. Magnetic field surrounds the Earth. when the charged particles coming from the sun interact with the magnetic field, beautiful colors can be seen in the sky. These are known as auroras. The color depends upon the gas present in the atmosphere. The electrons of gain energy and jump to higher level and then release photons when return back to its level.

A. Draw four rays parallel to the optical axis of your mirror. Two above the optic axis and two below it.
Katen [24]

Answer:

   f = q

Explanation:

In the attachment we can see a diagram of the parallel rays.

The dotted line represents the normal to the mirror surface

These rays when reflected using the constructor equation

        \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}

where p and q are the distance to the object and the image respectively.

Since the rays are parallel P = inf

          1 / f = 1 / inf + 1 / q

          f = q

this means that all the rays focus on one focal point.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

(4.31±0.38) million Solar masses.

Explanation:

The galactic center is the center of the milky way around which the galaxy rotates. It is most likely the location of a supermassive black hole which has a mass of (4.31±0.38) million Solar masses. The location is called Sagittarius A*.

As there is interstellar dust in our line of sight from the Earth infrared observations need to be taken.

On isolated ground receptacles, the metal yoke ____ integrally bonded to the equipment grounding terminal of the receptacle.
Ede4ka [16]

On isolated ground receptacles, the metal yoke is not allowed to be integrally bonded to the equipment grounding terminal of the receptacle.

Any device with two distinct switches or receptacles is a duplex device. It can be shaped to fit a Decora opening or a typical duplex plate opening. It should be noted that they can be combination devices with a switch/outlet, switch/pilot light, etc.

Because of grounding connection removal and receptacle, it is utterly undesirable to connect the two bare equipment grounding conductors together directly.

The equipment grounding conductor associated with those circuits must be connected to the box when circuit conductors are terminated on equipment inside a metal box to prevent unneeded current discharge.
