Answer:

Astronomical location of Mount St. Helen's is 46°12′01″N 122°11′22″O, meaning that such statovolcano is located at middle latitudes. In middle latitudes, troposphere is 17 kilometers high, which is below stratosphere, whose height is 10 kilometers at middle latitudes. Hence, the eruption of Mount St. Helen's in 1980 contiminated troposphere and lower parts of stratosphere due to volcanic ash.

Which pair of terms correctly fills the blanks in the following sentence? ________ is a property of an object while ________ is
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D) resistance, resistivity

Explanation:

Resistance is a physical quantity that indicates the opposition of an object to conduct electricity, this quantity depends on different factors such as temperature, material, object length, among other things. The resistance of two objects of the same material may be different, because it depends on the specifications of the object.

On the other hand, resistivity is a more general quantity, since it is assigned to materials and depends only on the nature of the material and its temperature.

So the resistivity is related to the meterial rather than the object.

The answer is: Resistance is a property of an object while resistivity is a property of a material.
