Answer:

The distance traveled by the car is 60 miles and the displacement of the car is 20 miles in the north direction.

Explanation:

The distance is the total length of the car's path.

d = 40 mi + 20 mi

d = 60 mi

The displacement is the distance between the starting position and the final position.

x = (40 − 20) mi N

x = 20 mi N

what evidence can you cite that the interstellar medium contains both gas and dust? (select all that apply.)
Basile [38]

(a) The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the radiations of photons of  wavelength 21 cm.

(b) The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the absorption lines present in the light from distant stars, which must be caused by a medium of density and temperature other than that of the stars emitting the lights.

<h3>What is interstellar medium?</h3>

Interstellar medium is the matter and radiation that exist in the space between the star systems in a galaxy.

<h3>Evidence that interstellar medium contains both gas and dust</h3>
  • The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the radiations of photons of  wavelength 21 cm.
  • The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the absorption lines present in the light from distant stars, which must be caused by a medium of density and temperature other than that of the stars emitting the lights.

11. Reflecting telescopes are popular because they're _______ than a refracting telescope.
Anon25 [30]
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece.  (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build".  (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).

Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium.  However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.
