Using parallax, what is the distance to the<br> farthest stars you can measure?
aev [14]
Parallax angles of less than 0.01 arcsec are very difficult to measure from Earth because of the effects of the Earth's atmosphere. This limits Earth based telescopes to measuring the distances to stars about 1/0.01 or 100 parsecs away.

Some of the minerals found in rocks dissolve in water as it flows over the rocks. would these minerals dissolve more quickly
densk [106]
A. Minerals would dissolve faster at the bottom of a waterfall than at a still pond because the water is more turbulent at the base of the waterfall.  The turbulent water has more energy and would facilitate faster dissolution of minerals. 

B. Minerals would dissolve faster in warmer water downstream because the warm water would speed up the rate of dissolution. 


C. Minerals in the sand would dissolve faster because the sand is in small grains and so more surface area is available for dissolution.

A long wire carries a current 5 A from west to east. A magnetic compass pointing North is placed underneath the wire at a distan
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

no deflection

Explanation:

current is flowing from west to east. As the magnetic field of a long wire carrying current is circular, its direction will be north below the wire and south above the wire (according to the right hand rule). So, when the compass is placed underneath the wire, it will still point towards the north direction.
