Plate tectonicss a property of the behavior of systems, plates, that are far from fundamental, like particles. So any statement about them is a theory.

Ex 10: My dog runs at 6 m/s for 18 meters. How long did she run for?
Hunter-Best [27]
She ran for 3s

Put 18/6 because in order to find how long she ran for you need to divide the distance by the meters ran, once you do that you will get 3.

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica
grin007 [14]

Answer:

f_e = 1.51 cm

Explanation:

given.

magnification(m) = 400 x

focal length (f_0)= 0.6 cm

distance between eyepiece and lens (L)= 16 cm

Near point (N) = 25 cm

focal length of the eyepiece (f_e)= ?

using equation

m = -\dfrac{L-f_e}{f_o}.\dfrac{N}{f_e}

400 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{0.6}.\dfrac{25}{f_e}

9.6 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{f_e}

9.6f_e = 16-f_e

10.6 f_e = 16

f_e = 1.51 cm

An atom in the ground state has a collision with an electron, then emits a photon with a wavelength of 1240 nm. What conclusion
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

attached below is the free body diagram of the missing  illustration

Initial kinetic energy of the electron = 3 eV

Explanation:

The conclusion that can be drawn about the kinetic energy of the electron is

E_{e} = E_{3}  - E_{1}

E_{e} = initial kinetic energy of the electron

E_{1} = -4 eV

E_{3} = -1 eV

insert the values into the equation above

E_{e} = -1 -(-4)  eV

   = -1 + 4 = 3 eV

What is the stretch when you pull with a force of 25 N on a spring with a spring constant of 8 N/m? *
Pani-rosa [81]

Hooke's Law

\tt F=k.\Delta x

k = spring constant

x = stretch

F = force

Input the value

\tt \Delta x=\dfrac{F}{k}=\dfrac{25}{8}=3.125\rightarrow 3.13\:m
