There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.

How to calculate the slope of position time graph?

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The slope of a position-time graph can be calculated as:

$m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$

where

$\Delta y$ is the increment in the y-variable

$\Delta x$ is the increment in the x-variable

We can verify that the slope of this graph is actually equal to the velocity. In fact:

$\Delta y$ corresponds to the change in position, so it is the displacement, $\Delta s$

$\Delta x$ corresponds to the change in time $\Delta t$ , so the time interval

Therefore the slope of the graph is equal to

$m=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}$

which corresponds to the definition of velocity.

Most oxygen in our atmosphere _____. has a single oxygen atom combines with carbon has two oxygen atoms has three oxygen atoms

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Two oxygen atoms

Explanation:

The majority of the oxygen in the air in our atmosphere consists of molecular oxygen ( $O_2$ ), which consists of 2 atoms of oxygen, since free oxygen mainly form covalent bonds with other atoms of oxygen.

A small fraction of the oxygen, however, in the ozone form, which consists of 3 atoms of oxygen bond together ( $O_3$ ).
