Answer:

The correct option are

A. Clouds

E. Motion of tech tectonic plates

Explanation:

The earth moon doesn't have an atmosphere because of it is relatively too small and it's magnetic field is not strong.

It instead has a dust cloud which researchers studying data from the LADEE (Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer) spacecraft have discovered that the airless moon is surrounded by a thin, asymmetrical dust cloud caused by the high-speed impacts of dust particles from comets.

The Moon is small and should have retained its internal heat only for a short time. Thus, astronomers suspect that it cooled quickly.

The Moon's Mantle, too cool to move easily, has no convection and no active tectonic plate motions, due the Moon's smaller size and cooler interior than Earth.

Even all other options such as magnetic field, gravity, imparter carter and rocks created by lava flow, they occur on moon but they relatively less effect on the moon compare to the earth, this might due to the small size of the moon

E.g

Value of gravity on earth is 9.81m/s², it value on moon is 1.62m/s²

The magnetic strength on the moon is weak. Earth's magnetic field at its surface ranges from 25 to 65 microteslas while the moon today does not possess a global magnetic field, but some billions years ago, the moon's magnetic field once ranged in strength from 20 to 110 microtesla.

Answer:

The correct option is;

E. motion of tectonic plates.

Explanation:

The Moon is formed from the Earth, and so have similar composition. However, the smaller size of the moon as well as the low temperature of the Moon's mantle compared to the interior of the earth, contribute the state of the Moon having no active tectonic plate motion and no convection.

The convection in the mantle, drives Earth's tectonic plate motions. The mantle within Earth moves at a rate of some centimeters annually, while the Moon, geologically is a dying world.

What happens to the wavelength of a wave if you increase the frequency?
dezoksy [38]

The product of (wavelength) times (frequency) is always the same number ...
the speed of the wave in whatever material it's traveling through.  So if the
frequency is increased, then the wavelength must <em><u>de</u></em>crease by the same
factor, in order to keep the product the same.

When you let the air go out of a balloon the balloon moves or shoots like a rocket. Would this happen if there was no surroundin
Pie

Answer:

The balloon would still move like a rocket

Explanation:

The principle of work of this system is the Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action), object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the balloon as object A and the air inside the balloon as object B. As the air goes out from the balloon, the balloon exerts a force (backward) on the air, and as a result of Newton's 3rd law, the air exerts an equal and opposite force (forward) on the balloon, making it moving forward.

This mechanism is not affected by the presence or absence of surrounding air: in fact, this mechanism also works in free space, where there is no air (and in fact, rockets also moves in space using this system, despite the absence of air).

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

r=6.05km/hr

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal

Explanation:

A bird is flying east at 5.2 kilometers/hour relative to the air. There's a crosswind blowing at 3.1 kilometers/hour toward the south relative to the ground. What is the bird's velocity relative to the ground? State your answer to one decimal place

can be solved using pythagoras theorem

r^2=o^2+a^2

r^2=5.2^2+3.1^2

r^2=36.65

r=6.1km/hr is te birds velocity relative to the ground

tanz=5.2/3.1

z=tan^-1(5,2/3.1)

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal
