Answer: This is called backscatter which refers to the ability of big waves to reflect the energy in order to give back the signal .

Explanation:

What is meant by backscatter?

Backscatter is the process where by the waves or signal is reflected back to the original direction and get scattered in all directions.

Backscatter allows us to receive signal and be able to view all the channels that are connected through the satellite.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

C.Supersaturated

Explanation:

There are three types of solution:

<u>SATURATED SOLUTION</u>:

It is the solution that contains maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solution in normal conditions.  

<u>UNSATURATED SOLUTION</u>:

It is the solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solution in normal conditions. It has space for more solute to be dissolved in it.

<u>SUPERSATURATED SOLUTION:</u>

It contains more than the maximum amount of solute dissolved in it. Such a solution has no capacity to dissolve any more solute under any conditions.

Since the sugar is no more dissolving in the tea and has settled down. Therefore, the solution is:

<u>C.Supersaturated</u>

If a Styrofoam ball and a steel ball are the exact same size &amp; shape,which has more mass?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Steel

Explanation:

Mass is density times volume.

m = ρV

Since they have the same size and shape, they have the same volume.

Steel has a higher density than Styrofoam, so at the same volume, the steel ball will have more mass.

When n liters of fuel were added to a tank that was already 1 3 full, the tank was filled to 7 9 of its capacity. In terms of n,
Zarrin [17]

Answer: 9/4n

Explanation:

Let's take T to represent tank

When n litres of fuel was added to tank that was 1/3 full = n + 1/3T

The tank was 7/9T

n+1/3T = 7/9T

n =7/9T - 1/3T

n = 4/9

If a full tank is taken to be 1 = 9/9

Hence, we will have 1 = x × n

1 = x × 4/9

x = 9/4

Hence 9/4 of n = 9/4n
