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.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

(a) R = 1Ω

(b) τ = 3

Explanation:

The time constants of the given circuits are as follows

\tau_{RL} = \frac{L}{R}\\\tau_{RC} = RC

If the two circuits have equal time constants, then

\frac{L}{R} = RC\\R^2 = \frac{L}{C} = \frac{3}{3} = 1\\R = 1\Omega

Therefore, the time constant in any of the circuits is

\tau = RC = 3

Which is a concern about mining for uranium? Heated water could be released into the environment. Dust released in the air could
saw5 [17]

Answer: Dust released in the air could be radioactive.

Explanation:

Uranium is a radioactive element. It decays naturally to attain stability. While mining, the dust displaces into the air causing not only harm to environment but for the workers as well. The released in the air could be radioactive which would be inhaled posing threat for lung cancer.

Thus, the correct answer is dust released in the air could be radioactive is a concern about mining Uranium.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: I scored a 9/10

Explanation:

I agree with Kathy gravity must be acting the same on both balls just because one ball is heavier doesn’t mean they will hit different times if the wooden ball was drop closer to the ground then the wooden ball would hit the ground first
