Answer:

equal to

(sorry if this is late)

Explanation:

Rest of the answers.

As solar wind approaches Earth, what happens to the charged electrons?

They are deflected as Earth’s magnetic field exerts force on them.

Which best describes how energy transferred from an electron in the solar wind compares with energy absorbed by an electron in the oxygen atom?

equal to

Which statement is accurate about how the aurora borealis is formed?

When the electrons fall to a lower energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.

How does the energy in the light of the aurora borealis compare to the energy as an excited electron returns to its original energy level?

equal to

During the formation of the aurora borealis, the electrons in an atom experience a change in energy levels. Which statement about this change is accurate?

First, the electron absorbs energy to move to a higher energy level.

The Moon requires about 1 month (0.08 year) to orbit Earth. Its distance from us is about 400,000 km (0.0027 AU). Use Kepler’s t
dem82 [27]

Answer:

\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}

Explanation:

As per Kepler's III law we know that time period of revolution of satellite or planet is given by the formula

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}

now for the time period of moon around the earth we can say

T_1 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_1^3}{GM_e}}

here we know that

T_1 = 0.08 year

r_1 = 0.0027 AU

M_e = mass of earth

Now if the same formula is used for revolution of Earth around the sun

T_2 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_2^3}{GM_s}}

here we know that

r_2 = 1 AU

T_2 = 1 year

M_s = mass of Sun

now we have

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = \sqrt{\frac{r_2^3 M_e}{r_1^3 M_s}}

\frac{1}{0.08} = \sqrt{\frac{1 M_e}{(0.0027)^3M_s}}

12.5 = \sqrt{(5.08 \times 10^7)\frac{M_e}{M_s}}

\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}

Compared to the buoyant force of the atmosphere on a 1-kilogram helium-filled balloon, the buoyant force of the atmosphere on a
Vladimir [108]

It all depends on the SIZE of the balloon.

If the balloon is made of really tough rubber, and it holds the helium in the same volume as the solid iron block, then the buoyant force of the atmosphere is the same for both objects.

But if the balloon is just some flimsy stuff, and it lets the helium expand to a much bigger volume than the iron block, then the buoyant force on the balloon is greater than the buoyant force on the solid iron block.

In fact, it DOESN'T MATTER what's in the balloon and what's in the block.  It doesn't matter whether either one of them is solid, liquid, or gas, and it doesn't matter whether they have the same or different mass.  

Whichever one has greater VOLUME has a greater buoyant force of atmosphere acting on it.

How do phospholipids form a barrier between water inside the cell and water outside the cell?
VMariaS [17]
Answer - Thanks to hydrophilic & hydrophobic. One is in the inner layer of the cell which is hydrophobic keeping water out. Where as the hydrophilic is getting water.

Reasoning - in the phospholipids there's a barrier called hydrophobic which keeps the water out coming in the cell which this is in the inner cell. While the hydrophilic likes water which is outside. These two dudes help the cell from exploding lol :)

What type of plate boundary do most volcanoes occur along
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Subducting convergent boundary

Explanation:

Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.

Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes  that are higher than the sea level.

Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser  plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates)  creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.
