Answer: -

0.2 Kg

Explanation: -

The equation used by Rhia for the carbon footprint measurement is

C = 0.2 B + 0.1 S

where S miles are by subway, B miles by bus and C is Kg of carbon dioxide.

From the equation we see the coefficient of B is 0.2.

Thus 0.2 Kg of carbon dioxide per mile the bus portion contributes to Rhia's carbon footprint.

Meera added blue copper sulphate crystals to some water in a beaker.
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The solid crystals disappeared

Explanation:

When a soluble solid solute is added to water, the solid solute disappears after a little while. The disappearance of this solute indicates that the solute has been dissolved in water.

In this case, blue copper sulphate crystals are added to water, the blue crystals disappear leaving only a blue solution. The disappearance of these blue copper sulphate crystals indicates that the substance has dissolved in water.

Compare and contrast alpha beta and gamma radiation
Evgen [1.6K]
There are usually 3 topics used to compare types of radiation: 

Ionising ability
Penetrative power 
Range in air

Ionising ability
Alpha radiation has strong ionising ability, while beta only has moderate ionisation and gamma is very weakly ionising.

Penetrative power 
Alpha particles are weakly penetrating, stopped by paper, while beta particles have stronger penetrating ability, stopped by skin and gamma radiation is very strongly penetrating, stopped only by thick layers of lead.

Range in air
Alpha particles- range of only a few centimetres
Beta - range of up to one meter 
Gamma- infinite range in air.

Hope this helps:)

Answer:

It sounds fine, but it may be a bit too long. It's difficult to shorten things like this, but getting more straight to the point would give it that "catchy" feel.
