How long would it take the space shuttle to go one light-year? The shuttle orbits the Earth at about 5 miles per second (18,000 mph). Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, which is about 37,200 times faster than the shuttle. So the shuttle would need about 37,200 years to go one light-year.

Match the boundary with its characteristic
kondor19780726 [428]
<span>Matching the boundary with its characteristics 1. Convergent - C. Compression 2. Divergent - B. Along ocean ridges 3. Transform - A. Along strike-slip faults The compression that occur in the convergent boundary causes the reverse fault in the earth crust. So in the divergent boundary two crust plates move apart causing a normal fault along the ocean ridges. The faults in the transform boundary happens at the place where plates slide laterally.</span>

3. a) Your body is made up of several simple machines that help you move. Identify three
Alja [10]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

1) The human arm: This is a type of simple machine called "Lever". In this type of machine, the elbow acts as the fulcrum, the palm serves as the load because that's where we place the load we want to carry. While the inner part of the arm which is the inner part of the elbow represents the effort because that is the joint we mover when making use of our arms.

2) Pulleys: An example of this in the human body is the knee cap where the direction of an applied force is changed. Thus means as it is in motion, it alters the direction for which the quadriceps tendon pulls on the tibia.

3) wheel and axle: An example of this in the human body is the lateral rotation of the shoulder joint medial. The humerus which is the bone between the shoulder and elbow will act as the axle while the rotator will be the will because when it is rotated a little bit, the humerus will move along with it.

A science teacher gives a student four beakers, each with a different liquid inside. The table provided shows the volume of each
Ksivusya [100]

The dependent variable in this experiment is the mass of each liquid.

Density is the ratio of mass to volume of a substance. In this experiment, since the volume of each liquid is given, to get density, mass of each quantity must be known which is the outcome.

Density also depend on the mass of a substance and density can easily be identified by mass if all the substance in question have the same volume.

In this experiment, all the liquid have the same volume. Since the student want to list them in order from the least dense to the most dense, how dense the liquid are will be a function of the differences in liquid mass.

The least dense liquid will float. That is, will be at the top most of the container. While the most dense will be at the bottom of the container.

Therefore, the dependent variable in this experiment is the mass of each liquid
