After years of observation, Hubble made an extraordinary discovery. In 1923 he spotted a Cepheid variable star in what was known as the Andromeda Nebula. Using Leavitt's techniques, he was able to show that Andromeda was nearly 1 million light years away and clearly a galaxy in its own right, not a gas cloud.

storchak [24]

Answer:

10 years

Explanation:

As you can understand from the question it is given that the planet is already filled to half of its capacity. Also the population doubles in 10 years. To fill up the planet completely the population needs to double only once. To do that only 10 years are required.

As it is mentioned there are no other factors affecting the growth rate, in 10years the planet will be filled to its carrying capacity.

A light, rigid rod is 55.8 cm long. Its top end is pivoted on a frictionless horizontal axle. The rod hangs straight down at res
VMariaS [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy. For this purpose, potential energy is equivalent to kinetic energy, and this clearly depends on the position of the body. In turn, we also note that the height traveled is twice that of the rigid rod, therefore applying these concepts we will have

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = mgh

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(2(55.8*10^{-2}))}

v = 4.67m/s

Therefore the minimum speed at the bottom is required to make the ball go over the top of the circle is 4.67m/s
