E. Galaxy Cluster

Explanation:

A galaxy cluster, or cluster of galaxies, is a structure that consists of anywhere from hundreds to thousands of galaxies that are bound together by mutual gravity.

A megaparsec is a million parsecs and there are about 3.3 light years in a mega-parsec. Parsec is rather a natural distance unit for astronomers. The standard abbreviation of a mega-parsec is Mpc.

A parsec is approximately 3.09 x 1016 meters, a megaparsec is about 3.09 x 1022 meters.

Hence, 8 megaparsecs is gigantic size and that can be only of a galaxy cluster consisting of hundreds and thousands of galaxies bounded together.

Keywords: galaxies, parsec, megaparsec, galaxy cluster

How many paths do the electrons have to flowlin a series circuit?

AleksandrR [38]

One path because in a series circuit it is only one path while in a parallel circuit you have 2 or more. Our houses use parallel so that is why you can turn off one light and the rest would stay on.

A conductor carrying 14.7 amps of current is directed along the positive x-axis and perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. A

Gnoma [55]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current carried in the conductor, I = 14.7 A (+x axis)

The magnetic force per unit length on the conductor, $\dfrac{F}{L}=0.125\ N/m$ (-y axis)

The magnetic force is given by :

$F=ILBsin\theta$

$\theta=90$

$F=ILB$

$B=\dfrac{F}{IL}$

$B=\dfrac{0.125}{14.7}$

B = 0.0085 T

According to right hand rule, the direction of magnetic force can be calculated. So, the direction of magnetic field is along +z axis. Hence, this is the required solution.

Yeast breaking down starch into usable energy ____________ law of thermodynamics.

Anon25 [30]

<span>First law of thermodynamics. This conservation law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be changed from one form to another. In essence, energy is always conserved but can be converted from one form into another. Like when an engine burns fuel, it converts the energy stored in the fuel's chemical bonds into useful mechanical energy and then into heat, or more specifically, the melting ice cubes. Yeast breaks down maltose into glucose to produce alcohol and Co2 in the fermentation process. This is a prime example of the 1st law of thermodynamics. No form of usable energy is really lost; it only changes from one form to another</span>
