Probably because darker colors absorb heat making darker colored clothing warmer than lighter colored clothing

Bone has a Young's modulus of about
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: 4.74 mm

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equation:

Y=\frac{stress}{strain} (1)

Where:

Y=1.8(10)^{10} Pa is the Young modulus for femur

stress=\frac{F}{A}=1.58(10)^{8} Pa is the stress (force F applied per unit of transversal area A) on the femur

strain=\frac{\Delta l}{l_{o}}

Being:

\Delta l the compression the femur can withstand before breaking

l_{o}=0.54 m is the length of the femur without compression

Writing the data in equation (1):

Y=\frac{\frac{F}{A}}{\frac{\Delta l}{l_{o}}} (2)

1.8(10)^{10} Pa=\frac{1.58(10)^{8} Pa}{\frac{\Delta l}{0.54 m}} (3)

Isolating \Delta l:

\Delta l=\frac{(1.58(10)^{8} Pa)(0.54 m)}{1.8(10)^{10} Pa} (4)

\Delta l=0.00474 m (5) This is the compression in meters

Converting this result to millimeters:

\Delta l=0.00474 m \frac{1000 mm}{1 m}=4.74 mm

What is the acceleration caused by gravity of the planet Earth?
Luda [366]
The general accepted value of acceleration due to gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2.

That is an approximation because being the acceleration of gravity due to the attraction of the earth its magnitude will depend on the distance from the point to the center of the planet Earth.

The value of g is determined by using the Newton's Universal Law of gravity:

F = G * m of Earth * m of body / (distance^2)

Wehre {G* m of Earth / (distance^2) } = g

G is a universal constant = 6.67 * 10 ^ -11 N*m^2 / kg^2

m of Earth = 5.98 * 10 ^ 24 kg 

distance = radius of Earth + height of the body

Given the the Earth is not a perfect sphere the radius varies. Also the height of the body varies.

If you take a mean radius of Earth of 6.37*10^6 m

you get

g = 6.67*10^-11 N*m^2/kg^2 * 5.98*10^24kg / (6.37*10^6 m)^2 = 9.83 m/s^2

Again, if you want a more precise value of g, you need to find the exact place where you are and then use the right r.

Matching fossils go with what hypothesis?
Rufina [12.5K]
There isn't a whole lot of info here to go on, but if they are matching fossils from different spots on the globe, it would most likely be proof of supercontinents such as Pangea.
