Answer:

(D) a brief early period of hyper rapid expansion of space-time.

Explanation:

Cosmic inflation is a theory which states that in an interval of 10⁻³⁶ seconds to around 10⁻³³ seconds after the big bang there was a massive expansion.

According to the big bang theory the universe came to be from a singularity i.e., a point of infinite gravitational field. The universe is expanding this means that according to the conservation of energy the universe was expanding from the beginning.

A planet moves fastest in its orbit around the sun when it is at which position?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

When it's closest to the sun.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.

Fg = m v^2 / r

The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:

Fg = mMG / r^2

Therefore:

mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r

MG / r = v^2

v increases as r decreases.  So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.

Imagine a 15 kg block moving with a velocity of 20 m/s to the left. Calculate the kinetic Energy of this block.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

3000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

If m = 15 kg and v = -20 m/s:

KE = ½ (15 kg) (-20 m/s)²

KE = 3000 J

If Earth were completely blanketed with clouds and we couldn’t see the sky, could we learn about the realm beyond the clouds? Wh
Fudgin [204]

The definition of waves that propagate through electric fields is called electromagnetic waves. The earth, despite being covered with clouds, can be 'affected' because waves such as sunlight or the moon have the ability to penetrate and be visible to the inhabitants of the earth. Microwaves and radio waves would be less affected by the clouds that cover the Earth.

Through these waves, you can know that there is beyond the clouds.

Ultraviolet light, microwaves and radio waves are the radiations that penetrate through the clouds and reach the Earth's surface.

Therefore, the answer is Yes, ultraviolet light, microwaves and radio waves are the forms of radiation that penetrate and reach the ground.

It would be really helpful if u help me solving this question. PLEASE!!!
sweet [91]

Answer: The students will determine the two fixed points of the thermometer:

Lower fixed point = 0 degree Celsius

Upper fixed point = 100 degree Celsius

Then divide the thermometer with equal intervals

The room temperature will be the point at which the themometric substance remains constant when rising from ice point.

Explanation:

Apparatus available:

Unmarked thermometer

250 cm3 glass beaker

crushed ice 

water

heatproof mat 

clamp, boss and stand

meter rule

Added apparatus

Bunsen burner

Stirrer

Method

The students will determine the two fixed points of the thermometer:

Lower fixed point = 0 degree Celsius

Upper fixed point = 100 degree Celsius

Then divide the thermometer with equal intervals

Procedures

Set up the apparatus of illustrated in the attached figure.

Immerse the unmarked thermometer into the ice in the beaker.

When the level indicated by the thermometric substance remains steady after some time, a mark will be made at that point. This mark will corresponds to the ice point (lower fixed point) and is assigned the value of 0 °C.

You may add little water and continue to stir gently.

The themometric substance will start to rise and stop when it reaches room temperature. Mark the point but do not assign any value

Place the beaker on bunsen burner and boil the water. The themometric substance will continue to rise and remain constant at upper fixed point

This mark will corresponds to the steam point (upper fixed point) and is assigned the value of 100 °C.

Divide between the lower fixed point and upper fixed point into equal intervals. Then you can see the value of room temperature.
