4 A magnet can exert a force of attraction or a force of repulsion on another magnet.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Push -repulsion

Pull - attraction

Explanation:

When two magnets are brought together, a push happens when a force of repulsion is experienced where the magnets move away from each other. This means their polarity is the same and this will cause the magnet to push away from each other.

When two magnets are brought together , a pull happens when a force of attraction is experienced where the magnets move close to each other. This means their polarity is different and thus causes the magnets to pull closer to each other.

2. What process does water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain?
weqwewe [10]

The process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

<h3>What is water runoffs?</h3>

Water runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb.

The water flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or lakes.

Runoff can come from both natural processes and human activity.

When rain falls to the earth from clouds and runs downhill into rivers and lakes.

During evaporation, the water turns from liquid into gas, and moves from oceans and lakes into the atmosphere where it forms clouds.

<h3>What is precipitation?</h3>

Precipitation is any liquid (rain) or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth, for example it could fall on land or into lakes and rivers.

Thus,  the process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

Describe how wet and dry barometers work
siniylev [52]

Answer: Wet barometer - The tool works by measuring atmospheric pressure to predict incoming weather. Since the glass is only filled halfway with water, the other half is exposed to the atmosphere. When the outdoor atmospheric pressure rises, the pressure in the glass decreases, and causes the water to move down the spout.

Dry barometer - A Torricellian barometer (sometimes called a mercury barometer) is an inverted (upside-down) glass tube standing in a bath of mercury. Air pressure pushes down on the surface of the mercury, making some rise up the tube. The greater the air pressure, the higher the mercury rises.

I hope this helps!
