Here is the difference between apparent magnitude and absolute magnitude. When we say apparent magnitude, this is the measurement of the brightness of the star of how it appears on Earth; on the other hand, absolute magnitude is the measurement of the brightness of the star at a <span>standard distance of 32.6 light years, or 10 parsecs. Hope this answers your question.</span>

which of these changes does a submarine encounter as it returns from the bottom of the ocean to the surface of the ocean

fiasKO [112]

a.the amount of sunlight increases.

Explanation:

As a submarine rises to the surface, the change it encounters that is true from the given options is that the amount of sunlight increases.

The bottom of the ocean is dark and receives little to no sunlight due to the scattering of the rays by ocean water.

As the submarine rises, the volume of water column on it decreases and the pressure on it decreases too.
Also, the temperature rises steadily to the surface.

17 copper wires of length l and diameter d are connected in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance R. What

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\frac{D}{d} = 4.12$

Explanation:

As we know that resistance of one copper wire is given as

$r = \rho \frac{L}{a}$

here we know that

$a = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^2$

now we have

$r = \rho \frac{L}{\pi (\frac{d^2}{4})}$

$r = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi d^2}$

now we know that such 17 resistors are connected in parallel so we have

$R = \frac{r}{17}$

$R = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}$

Now if a single copper wire has same resistance then its diameter is D and it is given as

$R = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2}$

now from above two equations we have

$\rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2} = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}$

$D^2 = 17 d^2$

now we have

$\frac{D}{d} = 4.12$

What is the mechanical advantage of the level shown below?

snow_lady [41]

the correct answer is B. 1.27

Mechanical advantage of a lever is simply the ratio of the effort arm to the load arm.Effort arm is the distance from the pivot to the point of application of force while load arm is the distance of the lord from the pivot.

therefore, in this question, the effort arm is 0.28m while the load arm is 0.22 m. MA is calculated as follows: MA=effort arm/load arm

=0.28m/0.22m=1.27
