Answer:
it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely
Explanation:
To properly operate the laboratory thermometer it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely. This done because there is a small bend in the mercury channel of a clinical thermometer that uses mercury. You must shake the thermometer to get the mercury from a previous reading from the thermometer back into the bulb for taking new reading. The bend prevents flow back into the tube so that one can comfortably take reading.
Answer:
3 km/h
Explanation:
Let's call the rowing speed in still water x, in km/h.
Rowing speed in upstream is: x - 2 km/h
Rowing speed in downstream is: x + 2 km/h
It took a crew 9 h 36 min ( = 9 3/5 = 48/5) to row 8 km upstream and back again. Therefore:
8/(x - 2) + 8/(x + 2) = 48/5 (notice that: time = distance/speed)
Multiplying by x² - 2², which is equivalent to (x-2)*(x+2)
8*(x+2) + 8*(x-2) = (48/5)*(x² - 4)
Dividing by 8
(x+2) + (x-2) = (6/5)*(x² - 4)
2*x = (6/5)*x² - 24/5
0 = (6/5)*x² - 2*x - 24/5
Using quadratic formula






A negative result has no sense, therefore the rowing speed in still water was 3 km/h
Galaxies are sprawling systems of dust, gas, dark matter, and anywhere from a million to a trillion stars that are held together by gravity. Nearly all large galaxies are thought to also contain supermassive black holes at their centers.
Answer:
The Nucleus
Explanation:
Protons and Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom.
The radius of a nucleus of hydrogen is approximately

, while we can use the Borh radius as the distance of an electron from the nucleus in a hydrogen atom:

The radius of a dime is approximately

: if we assume that the radius of the nucleus is exactly this value, then we can find how far is the electron by using the proportion

from which we find

So, if the nucleus had the size of a dime, we would find the electron approximately 500 meters away.
