Why was the government in giving support to addressing and researching the HIV epidemic ?

Astronomers build optical telescopes on tops of mountains because a. there is less air to dim the light. b. the seeing is better

V125BC [204]

Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.

How come in free fall you feel weightless even though gravity is pulling down on you?

AysviL [449]

Feeling of Weight.

When walking, you feel the weight on your feet, therefore, your brain automatically refers to it as a source of weight.

In the air there is no platform to land on, therefore the brain does not have the conscience to register you getting pulled down.

What is the period of a wave with a frequency of 100 Hz and a wavelength of 2.0 m

spin [16.1K]

The answer for the following answer is answered below.

Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.
Therefore the option for the answer is "B".

Explanation:

Frequency (f):

The number of waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time.

The SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz)

Time period (T):

The time taken for one complete cycle of vibration to pass a given point.

The SI unit of time period is seconds (s)

Given:

frequency (f) = 100 Hz

wavelength (λ) = 2.0 m

To calculate:

Time period (T)

We know;

According to the formula;

f = $\frac{1}{T}$

Where,

f represents the frequency

T represents the time period

from the formula;

T = $\frac{1}{f}$

T = $\frac{1}{100}$

T = 0.01 seconds

Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.

all objects near the earths surface-regardless of size and weight have the same force of gravity acting on them. is it true or f

pickupchik [31]

False: the force of gravity acting on different objects is different and depends on their mass

Explanation:

The answer is false.

The force of gravity acting on an object (also known as weight) near the Earth's surface is given by:

$F=mg$

where:

m is the mass of the object

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

We see from the formula that the force of gravity acting on an object depends on the mass: the larger the mass of the object, the stronger the gravitational force acting on it, and the smaller the mass, the weaker the force of gravity.

The factor that does not change is the acceleration of gravity, which is constant ( $9.8 m/s^2$ ) if we are near the Earth's surface, and implies that all the objects in free fall accelerate at the same rate towards the ground, regardless of their size and weight.
