A Canadian college student who has taken an astronomy class goes home for the holidays and persuades his parents to let him borr

ow the family car. When he returns, he finds that his parents are very angry with him, claiming he left the garage door open. Yet he remembers that he carefully closed the garage door with the electronic remote control in the car. After consulting with his astronomy instructor, he comes up with an alternative explanation for why the garage door is open. Which of the following is PART of that explanation?
a. The Sun was so bright and high in the sky in December in Canada that it got into his
parents' eyes
b. There was an eclipse of the Sun
c. It was a time of solar maximum, and there had been a big flare on the Sun earlier
d. No aurorae had been seen in the sky for many months
e. The number of sunspots had reached an all-time minimum
c. It was a time of solar maximum, and there had

Answer:

Option C, It was a time of solar maximum, and there had been a big flare on the Sun earlier

Explanation:

It was solar maximum due to which the amount of magnetic flux on the sun's surface rises up

This causes high frequency radio blackouts and interrupt with the communication on earth

Some times they also cause ripple effect in the electronic items as in the remote control used by the college student. They can disrupt the electronic communications.

Hence, option C is correct

How does the electric force vary with distance
wlad13 [49]
The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.

A 12,000-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with arms of unequal areas, filled with oil and capp
Bond [772]

Answer:

= 925.92 N

≅ 926N

Explanation:

Pressure due to car = pressure due to applied force  

12000/18^2 = Force / 5^2

force = 12000 * 25/ 324

= 925.92 N

For equilibrium

Pressure1 = Pressure2

A1F1 = A2F2

12000*pi*(5^2) = F2 ( pi)*(18^2)

so, F2 = Applied force to lift car = 925.92 N

Pascal's principle

Pressure1 = Pressure2

F1/A1 = F2/A2 (F=force and A=area)

A1 =Pi*(0.05)²

A2 =Pi(0.18)²

F2=12000

F1 = 12000*(0.05)² / (0.18)² = 926N
