<h2>The correct "option is (b) "</h2>

Explanation:

  • On the increase in the density of the water, the buoyant force acting on the body weight is less than the body weight.
  • In the dead sea, the water is saline due to the presence of salt in the water which increases the density of the water. Thus, the force acting on the body is less than the bodyweight which results in the sinking of the body.
  • Hence, the correct option is (b) that is "less than your weight".

So, C = kE°A/d

putting the values,

C
= 3.8 × 8.85×10^(-12) × 3.14×1.5×1.5 × 10^(-6)/0.43 × 10^(-3)

so, 1.02 × 10^(-13)

so the most appropriate answer is 2 ...that is
1.4 × 10^(-13) ....answer !!

The big bang theory has finally answered one of the biggest questions of science—the origin of the universe.
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

According to the big bang theory, matter was an infinitely small and very high density point which at one point exploded and expanded in all directions, creating what we know as our Universe, which also includes space and time . This happened about 13.8 billion years ago. Theoretical physicists have managed to reconstruct this chronology of events from 1/100 of a second after the Big Bang. After the explosion, while the Universe expanded, it cooled sufficiently and the first subatomic particles were formed: Electrons, Positrons, Mesons, Barions, Neutrinos, Photons among others. Today more than 90 particles are known. This theory solves many unknowns and is very well received by the scientific community, however there is still much to solve, for example, one of the great unsolved scientific problems in the expanding Universe model is whether the Universe is open or closed.

An attempt to solve this problem is to determine if the average density of matter in the Universe is greater than the critical value in Friedmann's model. The mass of a galaxy can be measured by observing the movement of its stars; multiplying the mass of each galaxy by the number of galaxies, it is seen that the density is only 5 to 10% of the critical value.

The visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is often subdivided into the colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blu
Ugo [173]

Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The range in which the light exists is described as the electromagnetic spectrum. The light waves, radio waves, gamma rays,etc that exist in the world is not visible to human eyes. A kind of wave that modifies  magnetic and electric fields is light. Spectroscopy makes use of all the frequencies and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic radiation.

The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen by the human eyes is the visible spectrum. The light waves with the wavelengths of  380 to 740 nm can be sen by the human eyes. Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

. The loop is pushed to the right, away from the magnetic field

Explanation

This decrease in magnetic strength causes an opposing force that pushes the loop away from the field
