Explain why we have to observe stars and other astronomical objects from above Earth’s atmosphere in order to fully learn about

their properties.
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

As per the spectrum range, it is important to observe the Sun and other astronomical objects from Earth's surface because they lie in the visible band of spectrum.

Earth's atmosphere absorbs ultraviolet light coming from the space thus helps us to know and learn about their properties.

If we place telescope in space, would be covered with water droplets thus making it useless to study about any object or to see them hence proper place such as Earth's atmosphere is well suited to observe stars and other celestial bodies.

How much work is accomplished when a force of 250 N pushes a box across the floor for a distance of 50 meters?
IrinaK [193]
Work = force * distance
and newton*meters = Joule

In this case,  work = 250N*50m = 12500 J

So the answer is D) 12,500 J

The near point of an eye is 56.0 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to focus clearly on objects at the distan
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Near point = 56 cm .

near point of healthy person = 25 cm

person suffers from long sightedness

convex lens will be required .

object distance u  = 25 cm

image distance   v = 56 cm

both will be negative as both are in front of the lens.

lens formula

I/v - 1 / u = 1/f

- 1/56 +1/25 = 1/f

- .01785 + .04 = 1/f

1/f  = .02215

f = 45.15 cm .

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

A student witnesses a flash of lightning and then t=2.5s later the student hears assiciated clap of thunder. (please show work)
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

857.5 m

2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds

Explanation:

Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s

Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s

Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s

Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m

Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light

\text{Time taken by light}=\frac{857.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow  \text{Time taken by light}=2.8583\times 10^{-6}

Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
