Eddi Din [679]2 years ago

Answer:

Mercury and Venus do not have moons. This is because any moon orbiting around them would be in an unstable orbit and would most likely be swallowed by the mammoth gravitational pull of our solar system’s mighty Sun. Whenever we look up at the night sky, we see a greyish-white object hung brightly among thousands of other visible stars.

Answer:

Most likely because they are too close to the Sun. Any moon with too great a distance from these planets would be in an unstable orbit and be captured by the Sun. If they were too close to these planets they would be destroyed by tidal gravitational forces.

the displacement (in centimeters) of a particle moving back and forth along a straight line is given by the equation of motion s
12345 [234]

The average velocity or displacement of a particle for the first time interval is <u>Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s.</u>

Solution:

As we know that displacement is calculated in centimeters and the unit of time is second.

The average velocity for the first interval [1,2] is given

Δs / Δt = s (t2) - s (t) / t2 - t1

Δs / Δt = 2sin2  π  + 3cos 2 π -  ( 2sin π + 3cos π ) / 2 - 1

Δs / Δt = 2(0) + 3(1) - 2(0) - 3 (-1) / 1

Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s

Thus the average velocity or displacement of a particle for the first time interval is Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s

The ability of water molecules to form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules and water's ability to dissolve substances that
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The ability of water molecules to form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules and water's ability to dissolve substances that have charges or partial charges are <u>due to water's partial charges.</u>

Explanation:

The partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive charge on hydrogen enables them to make hydrogen bond and also makes it to dissolve the the other substances having partial charges.

The velocity of blood flow is ________. A) in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels B) slower
Leto [7]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The velocity at which blood flows in the blood vessels is inversely proportional to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels present in the body. This means that if the cross sectional area of the vessels low, then there will be high rate of blood flow, and vice versa. This blood flow is minimum in the case of capillaries, where it gets enough time for the exchanging of essential nutrients as well as gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

when a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt, why does heat travel from the iron to the shirt?
artcher [175]
I think the answer to your question is that:
There is chemical energy being produced (by the water) and that causes the base of iron to absorb the heat. Then when the heated base of the iron is placed onto the shirt, the heat flattens the wrinkles on it.
