The answer is True. Doing something morally good has a morally bad side-effect is known as double effect, it is ethical to do it provided that the bad side-effect is not your intention. This is common in the case where a doctor gives drugs to a patient to relieve painful symptoms even though he knows doing this may shorten the patient's life.

Answer:

Life could get harder

Explanation:

Forests are habitats for animals and also food for both humans and animals so if they were to get cut down it could take some time for everyone to find what they need and forests also produce oxygen as well so without enough forests or trees to produce oxygen bad things could happen.

Astronomers use __________ to remotely identify the ________ of an object by the unique pattern of lines in its spectrum.

Aliun [14]

Answer:Spectroscopy helps astronomers to determine the composition, temperature, density, and motion of an object.

Infrared spectroscopy helps to identify the atoms and molecules in the object.

The red shift or blue shift (Doppler Effect) in a spectral line tells how fast the object is receding from Earth or coming toward it.

The Doppler shift enables astronomers to discover extrasolar planets.

As a planet orbits its star, the star is alternately moving away from or toward us.

Astronomers can use the Doppler shifts to calculate the speed of the star and the mass of the planet that is tugging on it.

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf A. \ 51 \ mL}$

Explanation:

Amount of water displaced by the sphere will be equal to the volume of complete sphere.

As the sphere completely sinks to the bottom of the cup.

We have been given;

Diameter of sphere (d) = 4.6 cm

So,

$\sf Radius \: of \: sphere \: (r) = \frac{Diameter \: of \: sphere \: (d)}{2} \\ \sf = \frac{4.6}{2} \\ \sf = 2.3 \: cm$

Volume of sphere (V):

$\boxed{ \bold{V = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3} }}$

By substituting value of r we get:

$\sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times {(2.3)}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 12.167 \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{152.81752}{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = 50.94 \: {cm}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V \approx 51 \: {cm}^{ 3}$

1 cm³ = 1 mL

$\therefore$

V = 51 mL

So,

Water displaced by the sphere = 51 mL
